Current Use of Chemicals in Tien Giang Agriculture
The use of chemical pesticides in the Mekong Delta is 71.9% higher than the national average, with Tien Giang’s usage nearly three times higher than the rest of the country.

The overuse of pesticides can pollute water and soil, leave harmful residues on crops, and negatively impact human health. Additionally, improper use of chemical fertilizers can alter soil pH, increase pest infestations, and hinder plant growth and productivity.
More critically, heavy reliance on chemicals in Tien Giang’s farming could damage the region’s market reputation. Many of Tien Giang’s famous fruits face difficulties in consumption and export due to failing to meet international standards.
Advancing Sustainable Agriculture in Tien Giang to Meet Global Standards
Minimizing chemical and pesticide use is essential to increasing the value of Tien Giang’s fruits and meeting global export standards.
By collaborating with top agricultural experts, we introduce the Eco-central Biopesticide solution to Tien Giang. This eco-friendly organic microbial technology protects and nurtures crops naturally.
After 10 years of research and publication in Scientific Reports, the Eco-central Biopesticide uses the Bacillus Velezensis AK-0 strain, producing eight antibacterial compounds and various enzymes that combat numerous plant pathogens.
Applying Eco-central Biopesticide technology, based on Bacillus Velezensis AK-0, ensures superior natural care for plants and crops with the following benefits:
- Resistance to Fungi and Harmful Bacteria: Produces natural antibiotics to inhibit the growth of harmful fungi and bacteria.
- Stimulates Plant Growth: Releases enzymes and plant hormones to boost root development and enhance nutrient absorption.
- Improves Soil Quality: Increases organic matter and improves soil structure, creating an ideal environment for plant growth.
Beyond protection crop, using microbial technology offers sustainable and long-term benefits for Tien Giang farmers:
- Reduce Chemical Use: Replace chemical pesticides with bio-products, lowering chemical residues in agricultural products.
- Protect the Environment and Public Health: Limit soil and water pollution, safeguarding ecosystems and public health.
- Enhance Crop Quality: Clean, safe products meet export standards, expanding market access.

Continuing the Journey of Building and Developing Tien Giang Agriculture
Applying safe farming practices and adopting scientific and technological solutions help solve current issues and move toward a green, sustainable, and eco-friendly agricultural future.
In Tien Giang, successfully developing and applying the Eco-central Biopesticide in crop care and protection requires collaboration and support from agricultural experts, R&D teams from organic pesticide companies, and agricultural cooperatives.
Let’s look forward to our next progress in Tien Giang!
By creating connections and bringing technological solutions to solve the problems of Tien Giang people, Mekonglink has implemented the ESG Living Lab model, starting with the Vietnam – Korea Innovation Cooperation Workshop. This is an opportunity for Proof-of-Concept (PoC) platforms to develop technology and business models by cooperating with local companies. The program brings four breakthrough technologies, helping to improve the quality of life, and supporting economic development in Tien Giang.
