<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-fareast-language:DE">The Mekong Delta of Vietnam is a region greatly exposed to increasingly frequent and severe droughts, saline intrusion, and floods. In response, the Government
of Viet Nam developed Resolution 120 proposing urgent actions for the Sustainable and Climate Resilient Development of the Mekong Delta. The transformation of the agricultural sector to adapt to the changing environmental conditions is a major priority of
the resolution, and the private sector has a critical role to play in introducing and scaling innovative technologies. Orlar’s vertical farming technology offers an advanced solution, particularly in estuarine and near-coastal areas where due to rapidly rising
salinity levels, agricultural production needs to shift from rice production to other and higher-value crops. While Orlar has already developed and is improving hi-tech systems to monitor many environmental aspects of production, SNV’s TA in this project is
desired to help the company successfully transfer and expand its business and production models to the Mekong Delta. The intensive experience of SNV can support Orlar to fast and effectively develop in its inclusive supply chain, ensuring food safety along
the chains while addressing both economic and environmental efficiencies (e.g. reducing packaging, recycling organic waste back on the farms) as well as generating new and inclusive business opportunities.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
