Hanoi (VNA) – The Asia Development Bank (ADB) will help Hanoi to carry out a
project on improving farm produce safety and developing the biogas sector in Hanoi
from now to 2015.

The project, Quality and Safety Enhancement of Agricultural Products and Biogas
Development Project (QSEAP) with a capital of over 6 million USD, will get a loan of
more than 5 million USD from the ADB.

The project is aimed at the sustainable production of vegetables and tea, providing
jobs for the agricultural sector, as well as improving farm workers’ health and
productivity, and developing biogas for daily use.

The project will help zone off areas for organic agricultural production in five
communes in Hanoi , build infrastructure for these areas and provide training in
safe farming and processing skills to farmers and businesses.-Enditem
