Tran Yen targets earning 1.6 trillion VND from agriculture, forestry and fisheries production by 2025.

According to Tran Nhat Tan, Secretary of the Tran Yen District Party Committee, the district will continue to implement solutions to help small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) join industry clusters and value chains in agriculture, forestry and fisheries production and processing. It will also innovate production models in agriculture, forestry and fisheries, develop collectives, cooperative groups, and cooperatives to develop effective links between enterprises, cooperative groups, cooperatives, and farmers, and attract investment in the production, processing, and consumption of key agricultural products.
