Tridge summary

Vietnam plans to export passion fruit and pomelo to the United States and Australia, as the country's fruit and vegetable exports have seen a significant increase of 27.4% in the past 11 months, generating nearly US$6.62 billion. The country is currently negotiating phytosanitary measures with these countries to ensure the quality of the agricultural products.
