Vietnam sells more fruits, vegetables abroad
Vietnam exported US$205.6 million worth of fruits and vegetables in the first four months of this year, up by 39 percent compared to the same period last year, according to the Vietnamese Customs.
Exporters attributed the increase to higher demands from major importers such as China, Japan, Indonesia and the EU.
Vietnam also bought less fruits and vegetables from abroad this year, importing just $74 million in the first fourth month, down by 5.7 percent compared to the same period last year.
