i) Rootstock for acidity soil: Seedless

sweet orange on sweet orange

rootstock (3<pH<4).

Effect of climate change on fruit are increasing year

by year and it needs more studies on this in future

ii/ Rough tolerant rootstock for citrus:

King mandarin on Truc rootstock.

iii/ Salinity tolerant rootstock:

- Citrus: Tac (quat), Sảnh, Bòng, bưởi Bung, bưởi

Hồng Đường (Cần Thơ), bưởi Đường Hồng (Bình Dương), và 2 con lai chống chịu 0,8 %o

- Mango: Chau hang vo, Thom, ghep xanh, Canh Nong mango

v/ La queo vang durian rootstock

tolerant to Phytophthora palmivrora

and root rot diseases.

iv/ Ghép xanh, Canh nông mango

rootstock tolerant high water lodging

Free diseased seedlings of Citrus, banana, passion fruit

More viral diseases developed, it needs more and more free diseased seedlings developed

Grown dragon fruit with T bar system

More modern techniques should be developed which less labor used

More pruning and

training need to be

applied to tall trees.

More safety product

with uniform quality

and large quantity

should be produced

More functional fruits should be studied and produced

Diseases management should be studied and applied to large scale using IPM techniques

- Using biological

substances to manage pests

and diseases: SOFRI

Trichoderma,

SOFRI Paecilomyces,

SOFRI Streptomyces,

SOFRI BTEC, etc.

Conventional

method SOFRI – Protein use

• More studies on increasing shelf life of horticultural crops.

• More diversify products from fruit and vegetable crops

More safe products should be produced follow

VietGAP/GlobalGAP standards and Organic

SOFRI publications on GAP, it needs more on organic standard books/documents

1. New varieties/rootstocks for better quality, diversify color, seedless, tolerant to pests and disease and to adverse conditions due to climate change and long storage.

2. New techniques for less labor use and more mechanization.

3. Long storage/increase shelf life, diversify products from fruit - processing.

4. More safety with uniform, quality and quantity products. 5. More market information, more studies on supply and

value chain. 6. Better logistics - transportation
