45th Anniversary of the
Founding of CIAT:
Welcome from Vietnam
Welcome from Vietnam
by Dr. Bui Ba Bong, Vice Minister
of Agriculture and Rural Development (MARD), Vietnam
Speech at the 45th Anniversary of the Founding of
the International
Center for Tropical
Agriculture, CIAT
His Excellency Mr. Borrowman, the Ambassador of Australia to Vietnam, ,
Dr. Wanda Collins, Chair of the Board of Trustees of CIAT,
Dr. Ruben Echeverria, Director General of CIAT,
Distinguished delegates,
Ladies and Gentlemen.
On behalf of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural
Development I would like to welcome all visitors to Viet Nam and say it is my pleasure
to join you for the 45th anniversary of theInternational Center
for Tropical Agriculture, or CIAT. I would like to congratulate CIAT on reaching this important
milestone.
Agriculture remains a very important sector for Viet Nam. Approximately
70% of the population are involved in agriculture and it
produces more than 20% of economic output. Viet Nam is a major exporter of
many agricultural products, and in some cases the top or one of the top exporters globally, with
a total agricultural export value of 25 billions USD annually. In the cassava
sector, with a harvesting area of more than half million hectares, the export value of
cassava products of Vietnam
reaches 800-950 million USD per year. In this connection, CIAT has made a
significant contribution through improving the cassava sector of Viet Nam.
CIAT has been working in Viet Nam for more than twenty years
with agencies within the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development and
with the university sector. There have been three main areas of collaboration.
The first started with the testing and release of improved
animal forage germplasm and management techniques. This has produced significant
improvements in animal production and in the livelihoods of tens of thousands
of smallholder farming families, especially in the upland areas. These impacts
have been seen for livestock sectors ranging from cattle through to fish.
The second major area of impact has been with cassava. In
the time CIAT has worked with Vietnamese partners on improvement of cassava, both
the area cultivated and the average yield of cassava have more than
doubled, resulting in a more than four-fold increase in production and a huge
increase in both processing and exports. Impacts have been realized at many levels; at
the national level as cassava has become a major export product, and for the lives
of hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of smallholder families
throughout the country through changes in productivity and profitability. Germplasm
from the CIAT cassava
breeding program is now included in more than 90% of all
cassava grown in Viet Nam.
The third area of collaborative work with CIAT has been in
linking farmers to markets, especially farmers from reasonably remote areas of
the country in Thua Thien Hue, Hoa Binh, and Dak Lak Provinces. Through addressing a
combination of technical and marketing problems improvements in market
access, profit, and livelihoods were observed for many communities for a wide
range of products, including cassava and livestock, but also fruits, vegetables,
and more.
I understand that these three major areas of work have been
supported by donor organisations represented in this room, namely the Swiss
Agency for Development Cooperation, the Nippon
Foundation, AusAID, ACIAR, and IFAD. We are very grateful for their support, and I know CIAT is grateful as
well.
Many challenges remain for farmers in Viet Nam and
there is an important role for agricultural sciences in addressing these challenges. The
research and extension capacity within the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural
Development, as well as in the universities and other sectors of the country, must rise
to the challenges faced by agriculture. This will involve working with farmers, extension
services, and the commercial sectors with a focus on improving livelihoods
while maintaining the resources of the country and responding to changes in
markets and to climate change. Working with international centers, such as CIAT, and
with other national research organizations across the region, is important. There
are many problems that can be more efficiently solved and broadly adopted only
through international collaboration.
Once again I would like to congratulate CIAT on this
important 45th anniversary and we look forward to many years working together in the
future. Using thís opportunisty, I would like to thank CIAT and its scientist
for their effective support to Vietnam Agriculture.
Finally, I would like to congratulate Ruben Echeverria, CIAT
Director General, Dr. Rod Lefroy, CIAT Regional Director for Asia
and Dr. Keith Farhney, Project Director of CIAT who have been awarded the Medal for the
Cause of Agriculture and Rural Development of Vietnam by the Minister of
Agriculture and Rural Development. It is with great honour that I hand over these
medals to them in this ceremony.
Thank you.
