Goal and objectives of the project

−    Completing the process of producing nano-sized CuCl inoculants that can eliminate plant diseases in the direction of commercialization of products in accordance with market requirements.
−    Promote consumption and increase sales of products containing nano-sized CuCl produced by the technology of the Institute of Applied Materials Science
−    Applying high technology and increasing the use of nano-sized CuCl in safe agriculture, minimizing the use of pesticides and creating high-quality agricultural products to meet the increasing demands of sustainable agricultural development.

Recommendations

At present, the project's products have been put into business on the market and have received good signals about the biological effect (growth and fungal resistance). So far, the project's product revenue is not high because the product is still relatively new, so it takes time to introduce and approach to promote products. In the coming time, the project team continues to introduce, show products and distribute to dealers in order to improve sales and benefit producers and farmers. The business side wants the Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology to have programs to introduce products for advanced technology agriculture such as nano CuCl in the media to spread widely to the agricultural production community.
