In December 2024, Vietnam’s agriculture, forestry, and fisheries sector recorded no new projects and negative newly registered capital of US$17.02 million, according to data from Vietnam’s Ministry of Planning and Investment. This marks a significant decline compared to November, which saw 2 new projects with US$3.12 million in newly registered capital.
In 2024, the sector attracted a total of 11 new projects with US$77.64 million in newly registered capital.
The drop in December’s performance reflects a slowdown in foreign investment in the agriculture, forestry, and fisheries sector. However, the sector remains crucial to Vietnam’s economy, particularly in terms of food production and export.
Despite the challenges seen in December, there are still long-term opportunities for investment as the sector modernizes and focuses on sustainability.
