摘要：

Fruits and vegetables are important export agricultural commodities in Vietnam. This is especially true for the Mekong Delta, which contributes 60 to 65 percent of Vietnam’s total fruit export revenue. However, production in the Mekong Delta has become increasingly susceptible to drought and salinity intrusion. According to Vietnam’s Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, drought and salinity intrusion affected 25 thousand hectares of fruit crops in the Mekong Delta in 2020. In 2020, despite Vietnam's progress in shifting from traditional export markets to new overseas opportunities and diversifying products, fruit export revenues dropped due to COVID-19 impacts.
