A 10-year cooperation strategy between Vietnam's Ministry of Agriculture and the Australian Center for International Agricultural Research aims to diversify crops and reduce input materials in the Central Highlands, a key coffee and pepper cultivation region. The strategy focuses on sustainable farming and the use of eco-friendly pest control methods, with a particular emphasis on the V-SCOPE project, which explores sustainable coffee and pepper cultivation. This project includes experiments with soil restoration and intercropping, with initial results showing promise for reducing input costs and improving production efficiency. Additionally, the project is looking into the supply of input materials and the use of technology for precision agriculture, such as measuring tree sap flow and irrigating based on plant needs, to address the challenges of climate change and water scarcity in the region.

Diversifying crops and reducing the use of input materials In the 10-year cooperation strategy (2017 - 2027) signed between the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development and the Australian Center for International Agricultural Research (ACIAR), the Central Highlands was identified designated as one of the priority areas for investment in research and development of agricultural and forestry farming techniques. The Central Highlands is an area specializing in coffee and pepper cultivation in Vietnam, accounting for 88% and 63% respectively. However, when looking at the situation, the area of coffee and pepper increased rapidly, people massively developed areas even on unsuitable soils and terrain, disrupting the ecological balance. Dr. Phan Viet Ha, Deputy Director of the Central Highlands Agro-Forestry Science and Technology Institute (WASI) shared: “Up to now, coffee and pepper have developed quite well and we have mastered many techniques in them. However, there are still ...
