Agriculture: the science or occupation of cultivating land and rearing crops and livestock; farming and husbandry.
Agriculture is fading as the most important economic sector in Vietnam. Although agriculture still employs more than half of the population and
manufacturing accounts for a mere 8 percent of all employment, the output value of both manufacturing and services surpassed that of agriculture in the early 1990s. The primary agricultural areas are the Red River delta, the Mekong River delta, and the southern terrace
region. The central coastal land, which is subject to destructive typhoons, is a region of low productivity. The central highlands area, traditionally one of low productivity, has been intensively cultivated since 1975, but with mixed results.
Agricultural imports and exports in Vietnam holds a high value towards their country as the manufacturing accounts for half of their population's employments.
Imports- Refined petroleum products, medicines, machinery, military supplies, vehicles, and food.
Exports- Paddy rice, coffee, rubber, tea, pepper, soybeans, cashews, sugar cane, peanuts, bananas, poultry, fish and seafood.
