As a result, despite 60% of its area being desert or lacking water resources, Israel has now achieved food self-sufficiency and also exported freshwater thanks to the seawater desalination technology and the reuse of 86% of household wastewater.

On this occasion, Ambassador Trung gave participants an insight into the development, scale, and potential of Vietnam's agriculture, highlighting that many agricultural products need a technological push to enhance quality and value.

He expressed his hope that Israeli businesses will not only see Vietnam as a market for selling technological products and services to but also recognise its potential for cooperation for mutual development.

After the seminar, delegates visited the plant breeding laboratory of GinoSar, a company that recently signed a cooperation agreement to transfer high-quality fruit tree breeding technology to a partner in Vietnam./.
