Hit by drought and land degradation, Vietnam has been taking strong actions to enforce the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD) to join global efforts against these global phenomena.

In the combat against desertification, Vietnam has step by step obtained the dual results as it has successfully prevented land degradation and brought economic benefits to farmers.

A dialogue on and solutions to combat land degradation was held by the General Department of Forestry under the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development (MARD) on June 16 in Hanoi.
