With over 22,400 hectares of coconut-growing land, Tien Giang province is ready to boost fresh coconut exports to China. The province has 141 facilities and three enterprises focused on coconut products, mainly in Cho Gao, Chau Thanh, and Tan Phu Dong districts. Recently, three plantation areas and two packaging facilities underwent successful online inspections for export certification to China.
Tien Giang has established 47 traceable plantation codes over nearly 3,500 hectares to meet export requirements, ensuring compliance down to individual farms. The local agricultural sector has been proactive in guiding cooperatives, businesses, and packaging facilities through training and traceability procedures, making them well-prepared for official direct exports of fresh coconuts to the Chinese market.
Previously, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development (MARD) held an online conference to inform over 15 coconut-producing provinces and cities of China’s fresh coconut export regulations. During the event, Deputy Minister Hoang Trung instructed the Plant Protection Department to increase inspection and monitoring of export shipments. Any shipments in violation will be halted to protect other facilities.
Deputy Minister Trung emphasized that exporters must adhere strictly to the protocol regulations, purchasing only from certified plantation areas. He urged individual farmers and businesses to comply responsibly, as they share common plantation codes.
The Deputy Minister also highlighted the need for enhanced efforts to boost the coconut industry, increase grower incomes, and contribute to export revenues. Local authorities and businesses have proposed that MARD and relevant agencies establish a Mekong Delta Coconut Economic Development Research Center to support efficient, structured cultivation, production, and export processes, aiming to make the coconut industry a key economic sector in Vietnam.
