Tel Aviv witnessed a significant event on March 12 as Vietnam’s Vitad Group and Israel’s Ginosar Agro united in a strategic alliance, marking a new chapter in agricultural innovation. With a shared vision, these industry leaders are poised to revolutionize crop development in Vietnam, harnessing the power of cutting-edge Israeli technology.
Ginosar Agro, a luminary in the realm of agricultural solutions, boasts a trifecta of expertise: enhancing product quality, supercharging productivity, and maximizing returns on investment. Their prowess in tissue culture technology has led to the annual production of premium seedlings, catering to the demands of the global market.
Vitad and Ginosar, having already forged a strong collaboration over the years, have now elevated their partnership to new heights. This strategic alliance underscores their unwavering commitment to propelling agricultural growth and fostering bilateral cooperation between Vietnam and Israel.
Going beyond the mere import of seedlings, Vitad and Ginosar are setting their sights on establishing a dedicated laboratory in Vietnam by the end of 2023. Ginosar, armed with its robust infrastructure, genetic resources, and proprietary technology, will empower Vitad with lab capabilities through knowledge transfer. This pivotal move will enable Vitad to cultivate superior crop varieties on a grand scale, creating expansive raw material zones that will fuel exports and generate significant economic benefits for Vietnamese farmers and businesses alike.
A cornerstone of this alliance is the transfer of in vitro propagation technology, a game-changer in selecting plant species with enhanced yield and robust disease resistance. Additionally, the partnership will introduce drip irrigation systems and smart agriculture solutions, optimizing water efficiency and crop care processes. Collaborative efforts will also extend to workforce training, market development, investment in modern production models, and long-term research initiatives, ensuring sustainable progress.
This strategic partnership stands as a testament to the modernization of Vietnam’s agricultural sector and the elevation of its farm products on the global stage. It underscores the potential for cross-border collaboration to drive innovation and create mutually beneficial opportunities.
Vietnamese Ambassador to Israel, Ly Duc Trung, emphasized the significance of this alliance and the establishment of the laboratory, highlighting the success of a Vietnamese enterprise in fostering deeper bilateral cooperation. By working together, Vitad and Ginosar are poised to make a profound impact on the agricultural landscape, not just in Vietnam but beyond.
