In managing pesticides, the Party and State advocate sustainable socio-economic development, develop safe agricultural production, and promote trade promotion to create conditions for export. Besides promoting socialization and administrative reform in pesticide management, using pesticides by regulations ensures safety for humans, animals, plants, the environment, and food safety.
Furthermore, promoting information about the importance of advanced crop protection solutions and the role of responsible use of pesticides cannot be overlooked. The promoting information helps increase awareness among farmers and communities about this issue. These activities play an important role in improving the effectiveness of state management of pesticides and contribute to building green, clean, and sustainable agricultural production.
