Ở Việt Nam, hiện nay, diện tích thanh long khoảng ha với sản xuất khoảng tấn và diện tích trung bình cho mỗi hộ gia đình là 0,5-1 ha. Sản xuất thanh long đã nhìn thấy giá cho trái cây của họ giảm khoảng 60% kể từ 2000 là sản phẩm chủ yếu được bán cho tiêu thụ trong nước hoặc nước láng giềng quốc gia. Lợi nhuận từ thanh long có thể được cải thiện đáng kể nếu nhỏ những người trồng và xuất khẩu có thể được truy cập vào thị trường giá trị cao ở châu Âu và Bắc Mỹ. Dự. | GAP Workshop in Binh Thuan 21-22 7 2008 Developing GAP systems for dragon fruit producers and exporters in Binh Thuan and Tien Giang provinces. Nguyen Van Hoa Nguyen Huu Hoang 1 John M Campbell 2 and Nguyen Minh Chau 1 CARD Project 037 04VIE Starting date 30 June 2005 and Ending date June 2008 ABSTRACT In Vietnam at present the area for dragon fruit is about 13 500 ha with the production of about 211 000 tones and the average area per household is 1 ha. Producers of dragon fruit have seen prices for their fruit decline by about 60 since 2000 as the product is mainly sold for local consumption or to neighbouring countries. Returns from dragon fruit could be significantly improved if small growers and exporters can gain access to new high value markets in Europe and North America. The project has established a private sector working pilot of exporter packer and supplying dragon fruit growers in which the European high value market driven standards of BRC at the packer and EUREPGAP at the farmer level have been implemented. Activities included i Field farmers benchmarking survey completed and a report was prepared by HortResearch personnel and delivered as a PowerPoint presentation to SOFRIpersonnel also packers farmers MARD and DARD personnel of Binh Thuan in 2007. ii Selection of a packer exporter and farmer group for the Project Pilot confirmed and formalised. iii Training of the Pilot members for improvement towards British Retailers Consortium Global Standard - Food BRC for the packer and EUREPGAP for the farmers were carried out to enable them to reach compliance in all areas. iv Pilots both for field production and packhouse were implemented and all the corrections have been done and the Certification for EURAPGAP with 80 ha of dragon fruit production has been achieved while the packhouse are being auditing for BRC certification. v The dragon fruit quality manuals for the farmer and packer were developed in a way that closely related to the current .
