Promoting the brand, potential and leading position in Vietnam's agriculture is an important content arranged exclusively in the exhibition area at the Vietnam Pavilion.

A space introducing agricultural products with export turnover of more than US$1 billion with 3 boats simulating the ships carrying goods on the Mekong River with a background of a large photo conveying 3 meanings:

(1) promote and affirm the position of Vietnam's export agricultural-forestry-fishery products; (2) promote the familiar, attractive and beautiful image of tourism, which is one of the leading tourist destinations in Vietnam thanks to the uniqueness of the river and green tourism models; (3) Vietnam introduces a rich Mekong Delta region that is being heavily affected by climate change, calling for a joint effort to protect the environment and save the regions. The land is facing the risk of saltwater intrusion.

All products displayed on the boat are either real products (St25 rice, rice, wood, rubber), fruit and seafood displays handcrafted by famous artisans. Besides the message of cooperation, Vietnam also emphasizes the sustainable development.

Space to promote products of craft villages, OCOP and Vietnamese products.

After Ha Long Bay Week at EXPO 2020 (February 12-19, 2022), Vietnam Agricultural Products Week continues to show the Vietnamese Pavilion's constant efforts in connecting with the world.
