Veitnam: How to export cashew nuts to 4 - 5 billion dollars?
To achieve this, one of the most important factors is the organization of raw materials. " This is the direction of the Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development Nguyen Xuan Cuong in the "Vietnam Cashew Development Conference" held in the "capital" of Binh Phuoc.
Minister Nguyen Xuan Cuong worked at the Center for Research and Development of Cashew Nut and visit the research center of the Center No. 1 in the world, but the effect is not high Currently, the area of the whole country is about 337,143ha including 39,645ha of forest land in Binh Phuoc province, an increase of 4,410 ha compared to 2016, of which area for harvesting 283,216 ha, accounting for 94.10 %. Cashew area in the South East is 183,700 ha, accounting for 61% of the country.
According to a report by the Department of Crop Production, the productivity of Vietnam is currently higher than the world average, which is a good premise for further improvement in productivity and competitiveness in terms of price. . According to the Department of Crop Production, Vietnam now has more than 465 cashew processing enterprises with a total design capacity of 1.4 million tons of grain per year. Due to the investment in production expansion and new construction, in comparison with processing capacity, large-scale enterprises have occupied more than 70% of production. However, in terms of quantity, the number of small processing establishments still accounts for nearly 70% of establishments (314 establishments).
Currently, there are about 20 large companies investing in deep-processing products such as roasted salt, fried butter, condiments, mixed cashew, cashew ... with a capacity of 15.4 thousand tons products / year, the rest are small establishments, supplying the domestic market about 20,000 tons of products per year. In addition, there are 26 seed oil processing plants with a capacity of 80,000 tons of products per year and 5 oil seed processing facilities with a capacity of 6,000 tons of products per year.

According to the Department of Crop Production, although Vietnam is the largest exporter of cashew nut, Vietnam has only been involved in processing, equivalent to 18% of the value chain. The biggest profit is still in the process of processing roasted salt and distribution with total value of nearly 60%. Cashew sector meets many challenges when participating in big markets such as USA, Europe and Japan.
Representatives of enterprises attended the conference, there are too many small cashew processing establishments operating under the strength of each other, lack of linkage. Many enterprises do not have processing facilities, only to collect for export, so the quality of export products are uneven, low and in a negligible amount but competitive in price, damaging the industry say general.

Urgent need to restructure
Speaking at the meeting, Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development Nguyen Xuan Cuong said that besides the strong development in the last 30 years, creating the foundation for building the Vietnam cashew nut brand, Income is not high and is often affected by epidemics and weather. Therefore, in the coming time, MARD will focus on restructuring the cashew sector. Specifically, no increase in production area, keeping the current 300,000 hectares of cashew and current solutions to increase productivity double or even triple. Besides, focus on developing deep processing, selecting qualified companies to invest in development.
Deep-processing products for sale in supermarkets of the Americas, Europe one price from 25-30 USD, while cashew exports of Vietnam is only from 10 to 11 USD / kg. As a result, the cashew industry must reorganize the production chain in a closely linked fashion from production to export to raise cashew nut value in the world market. (Mr. Nguyen Duc Thanh, Chairman of Vietnam Cashew Association).
According to the minister, the area of the country is about 320 thousand hectares, alone in Binh Phuoc accounted for more than half of that number. It can be said that Binh Phuoc is the "capital" of the Vietnamese cashew industry. In order to develop the cashew industry, it is necessary to concentrate on raw materials, because raw materials for processing are in short supply. The importation can happen two things, one is the big risk due to many factors such as crop failure, procedures. In addition, some countries are currently investing in cashew nuts processing as we do, which is a very small competition we face. Therefore, in order to develop the cashew industry in the direction of creating a deep and sustainable value chain, the first is to reorganize the raw material area. That is why MARD held a conference on development of Vietnam's cashew industry to review the content of important steps in the organization and development of raw material areas, in collaboration with local authorities, to offering basic solutions to ensure that more than 300,000 hectares of cashew must be restored to ensure economic efficiency for farmers and increase resistance to climate change. Variety of complex breeds, but cashew is one of the trees are suffering great damage.
Presently, in the groups of cashew development solutions, scientific and technical solutions are focused first. In this group of solutions, the most important is the breeding. Currently, there are 3 new cashew varieties, giving high productivity and economic efficiency, gradually developing and mass production. Secondly, many old cashew orchards are old and old, so the new plantation in the area allowed, the restoration and renovation of aging gardens is one of the tasks. The key we have to do.
The Department has directed the cashew research center under the Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology to finalize the procedures on seedling production, based on that, in collaboration with the local agricultural sector, to guide the farmers. Implement these processes.
Another important element is the management of the fertilizer process, ensuring that the fertilizer is of the right quality, suitable for the cashew nut and the growing area. In addition, the irrigation works for irrigation water for orchard is very important. Most of cashew growing areas are difficult for irrigation water, especially in the dry season, decisive season for cashew yield. Therefore, there should be scientific solutions such as drip irrigation technology, ensuring that cashew water is sufficient, but not wasting water, is also an important task to do, in order to increase sustainable productivity. And one of the main focus in cashew cultivation is the prevention of pests and diseases, especially the prevention of mosquito bugs, which are very harmful objects, often on the cashew.
Mr. Nguyen Van Loi, Secretary of Provincial Party Committee of Binh Phuoc: Suggest that cashew is the main national tree Binh Phuoc is the capital of cashew and cashew processing. However, the cashew industry in the province is facing low productivity, the main source of raw materials to import. The linkage from farmers, new business formed initially, leading to the segment in purchasing, processing, hard work. The results of businesses, farmers themselves swimming, the state investment is not much. In the coming time, the Standing Committee of the provincial Party Committee will promulgate two resolutions on animal husbandry and crop production, which will focus on cashew production in the direction of multi-level production to increase income for the people. At the same time, rebuilding the supply chain, value chain in cashew production. However, difficulties in financial resources, climate change, the awareness of growers, cashew production is currently no obstacle. It is proposed that the State give cashew trees a national key, from which policies and packages of incentives for farmers and businesses. The Association needs to have a program to co-develop cashew industry and investment for farmers to innovate production, promote the development of the industry.
Binh Phuoc has more than 200 enterprises and more than 400 cashew processing establishments, but only 31 large enterprises with a total capacity of 82,000 tons per year. Attention should be paid to the development of the cashew industry in the direction of concentration, from small scale production to large-scale linkages; build and support the production cooperatives, specializing in cashew; Encourage businesses to invest, associate with growers to create stable output for products and create sustainable material areas.
