A new call to action to help countries turn BioTrade into a lever for pandemic recovery and adaptation.

First, Global Summit dedicated to biodiversity held on the day 30 month 9, Leaders of various countries say the COVID-19 pandemic is an opportunity for countries to put ambitious action plans at the heart of their post-Corona economic recovery strategies..

One of the tools used by countries is Bio-Trade (BioTrade) – the concept of harvesting, manufacturing, conversion and commercialization of goods and services derived from biodiversity according to the BioTrade Principles and Criteria , a set of guidelines emphasizing environmental sustainability, social and economic.

Members of UNCTAD's Steering Committee on BioTrade have issued call to action towards countries to promote BioTrade for better economic recovery after the pandemic, because the conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity can create jobs and economic growth while protecting the global environment.

“Commercial Link, Biodiversity and sustainable development are an imperative path towards enhancing community resilience and adaptation., the private sector and ultimately the national level in COVID-19 recovery efforts”, Lorraine jaramillo, UNCTAD economic official said.

BioTrade for recovery and adaptation

Initiative BioCommerce by UNCTAD is one of the measures to promote legal trade, sustainability and traceability for biodiversity-based goods and services in line with the objectives of Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) and Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species, endangered wild plants (CITES).

BioTrade partners and other actors have called on countries to foster a balanced relationship between post-COVID-19 economic recovery policies and various aspects of sustainable development..

“We call for this to be done through conservation, regeneration, sustainable use of biodiversity and building socioeconomic and livelihood benefits, especially in rural communities” citing part of their joint statement.

According to the signatories, This will contribute to building a good future, Healthier and more sustainable for everyone: nation, enterprise, community and people.

The Parties emphasize that the sustainable use of biodiversity and the trade in the products and services it derives from it is closely linked to the building of sustainable livelihoods..

“Biodiversity is the main source of food security and household income, secure the livelihoods of indigenous peoples and rural communities. It is also a hub for biodiversity-based companies.”.

Avoid future pandemics, increase action

The statement notes that “trade in products and services of biodiversity friendly origin is an essential factor for reducing the risk of occurrence and spread of avian influenza and therefore the risk future pandemics in the post-COVID-19 world”.

The declaration calls on countries to step up actions to achieve these United Nations Sustainable Development Goals , the goals of global biodiversity framework after year 2020 and Paris Agreement about climate change.

States should promote sustainable trade in biodiversity-based products and services under fair and equitable benefit-sharing schemes., according to the statement.

Members state that economic incentives for conservation, restoration and sustainable use of biodiversity, such as BioTrade, play an important role in the recovery period after COVID-19.

Such initiatives can directly contribute to limiting and preventing biodiversity loss, Deforestation and habitat conversion, Pollution activities and illegal wildlife trade, they say.

Members reaffirm that the Principles and Criteria for Bio-Commerce Year 2020 of UNCTAD also as relevant tools and standards can help countries develop sustainable industries and businesses based on biodiversity, while at the same time shifting towards local economic development through sustainable trade.

Export price of pepper in the year 2022 is forecasted to continue to hold high

Export price of pepper in the year 2022 is forecasted to continue to hold high

According to information from the Import-Export Department (Ministry of Industry and Trade), in year 2021, Vietnam's pepper exports are estimated at 261 thousand tons, value 938 million dollars, reduction 8,5% in quantity, but increase 42% in value over the year 2020. For the whole year 2021, The average export price of Vietnam's pepper is estimated at 3.593 USD/ton, increase 55,2% over the same period in the year 2020.

Good news for pepper growers

Whereby, in year 2021 past, Vietnam's pepper exports have a shift in market structure. Proportion of exports to US markets, ME, United Arab Emirates, Pakistan rose, while the proportion of exports to the Chinese market, ASEAN down.

Especially, in 11 may 2021, Vietnam's pepper exports to many markets increased in both volume and value, including: USA, United Arab Emirates, Virtue, Pakistan, Netherlands, Korea, Brother. Remarkable, The amount of pepper exported to the Dutch market increased to 52,7%, reach 3,17 thousand tons.

Besides that, Many markets increase to buy white pepper from our country like Thailand, China, India, Spain. Bring the total export output of white pepper 11 may 2021 reach 21,2 thousand tons, value 106,23 million dollars, increase 2,3% in quantity and increase 58,7% in value over the same period of the year 2020.

Export of pepper in the year 2021 estimated 938 million dollars

Statistics from the China Customs Administration say, pepper import turnover of this country in the month 10/2021 reach 4,79 million dollars, reduction 1,3% compared with month 10/2020. Although China reduced pepper purchases from Indonesia and Malaysia decreased, but increased buying from Vietnam, Brazil and India.

Are known, in 10 may 2021, Chinese chi 14,54 million USD to buy pepper from Vietnam, increase 15% over the same period in the year 2020. Vietnam's pepper market share in China's total imports increased from 25,85% in 10 may 2020, up 31,76% in 10 may 2021.

Good news for the pepper industry, That is, in recent years, the structure of exported pepper has changed quite a lot.

Businesses have reduced exports of raw pepper, instead, promote the sale of pre-processed or intensively processed varieties; promoting the export of products to serve the cosmetic industry…

Step into the year 2022 this, Import-Export Department forecasts, Export pepper prices will continue to stay high. The pepper industry continues to exploit traditional export markets such as the United States, ME, United Arab Emirates.

United States, Vietnam's largest pepper export market, With the economic situation showing signs of recovery, the demand for pepper will increase.

While, Vietnam's pepper has created a fairly solid foothold in the US market. The competitive advantage of Vietnam's pepper products compared to other export markets is quite large.

Constantly improving quality, keep the brand, market expansion

Comment on the shifting structure of Vietnamese pepper, The Import-Export Department believes that, year 2021, Vietnam's pepper has a strong shift in the structure of export products. Citing statistics of the General Department of Customs, in the first half of the year 2021, exports of black pepper and white pepper decreased in volume, but increased sharply in value, while exports of ground black pepper and ground white pepper increased sharply in both volume and value over the same period last year 2020.

Changing mindsets, grow pepper organically, Actively looking for output for products has helped Vietnam's pepper conquer domestic and foreign markets with higher prices..

However, This agency also forecast, Vietnam's pepper exports will face difficulties in the last months of the year. Pepper exports to main markets tend to slow down or decrease sharply. Presently, The amount of pepper left in the population is not much, while the export business is not much “salty” due to the "galloping" increase in shipping costs and strict disease prevention measures in many localities.

“Vietnam's pepper exports in 1-2 Next month will have many restrictions due to the impact of the COVID-19 epidemic, while congestion at southern seaports and high shipping rates will be obstacles to pepper exports.. Pepper prices are also considered unlikely to increase sharply due to improved supply when Indonesia, Malaysia and Brazil enter the harvest of the month 8 and September”, Representative of the Import-Export Department commented.

Therefore, to have a competitive advantage in the world market of spices and flavorings, After Vietnam got the disease under control, Localities and businesses need to have a plan to restore production, application of advanced technologies for processing, develop a variety of products, take advantage of incentives from new-generation free trade agreements that Vietnam has recently joined to boost exports.

The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development inspects pepper cultivation in Dak Nong province.

On the side of Vietnam Trade Offices abroad, Mr. Bui Trung Thuong, Vietnamese Trade Counselor in India said:, India's spice production is about 3 million tons per year. Spices are also a billion-dollar export product of this country. India also imports many spices, including pepper. India imports pepper from Vietnam about 25-30 million USD / year.

Therefore, for seasoning, Vietnamese flavorings successfully exported to India, Mr. Bui Trung Thuong recommended, businesses that need to apply science and technology or research and develop products, for example a variety of seasoning ingredients mixed into 1 spices with characteristic flavor. At the same time, Businesses also need to learn the flavors of other countries to make products that meet the tastes of this market, create competition with similar products of other countries…

In charge of the Vietnam Trade Office in Saudi Arabia, please pay more attention to businesses, main packing material for herbs, spices and seasonings in Saudi Arabia should be glass, flexible packaging, paper and paperboard, hard plastic and others. Packing boxes come in different varieties such as vials, chai, the bag, package, tub, box, bags and tubes.

For European market, Mr. Pham Van Hien, Director of LTP Import Export B.V Netherlands Company shared, for Vietnamese spices to penetrate the European market, Businesses need to carefully study this block market. If companies do not have a market research room, they can participate in fairs like Anuga of Germany to promote their products., Refer to the information on the association's website, European professions.

The State of Agriculture and Food Global Report (SOFA) 2021 of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) recently published reveals the fragility of agricultural systems around the world and offers solutions on how to deal with unexpected shocks.

Countries need to make agricultural systems more resilient to unexpected shocks such as those experienced during the COVID-19 pandemic. These shocks are the main drivers of the latest global increase in hunger. According to SOFA report 2021, Without careful preparation, unpredictable shocks will continue to damage agricultural systems.

This year's State of Food and Agriculture Report is titled "Making agricultural systems more resilient to shocks and stress".. The report focuses on assessing the ability of national agro-product systems to easily respond to or recover from shocks and stressors.. The report also provides guidance to Governments on how to improve resilience.

Nowadays, about 3 billion people in the world can't afford a healthy diet. SOFA report 2021 estimated that there will be more 1 billion more people join this ranks if another shock abates 1/3 their income. More, Food costs can add up to 845 million people if there is a break in important transport links. SOFA defines shocks as “Short-term deviations from long-term trends have a significant negative effect on the system, health status, asset, Livelihoods, human safety and resilience to future shocks.” Examples include extreme weather events and outbreaks of plant and animal diseases and pests.

Even before COVID-19 broke out, The world is still not on track to meet its pledge to end hunger and malnutrition by 2030. And while food production and supply chains have historically been vulnerable to climate extremes, armed conflict or increase in global food prices, The frequency and severity of such shocks is increasing.

Specific action

The World Agricultural System – the complex web of activities involved in the production of food and non-food agricultural products, as well as preservation, process, transport, distribution and consumption, produce 11 billion tons of food every year and create jobs for billions of people, Directly or indirectly. The urgency to strengthen the resilience of agricultural systems cannot be delayed.

The report also provides national indicators of the resilience of agricultural systems in more than 100 country in the world, by analyzing factors such as the transport network, commercial flow and availability of healthy and varied diets. Although low-income countries generally face much greater challenges, but the report shows middle-income countries are also at risk. For almost half of the countries analyzed by FAO experts, Closing of important transport links will increase local transit times 20% Closing of important transport links will increase local transit times, Closing of important transport links will increase local transit times.

Therefore, Closing of important transport links will increase local transit times.

Closing of important transport links will increase local transit times – Closing of important transport links will increase local transit times, manufacturing, Closing of important transport links will increase local transit times, Closing of important transport links will increase local transit times – Closing of important transport links will increase local transit times. Supporting the development of small and medium agricultural enterprises, Cooperative,… will help maintain diversity in the domestic agricultural value chain.

Another important factor is connectivity. Well-connected agricultural networks will overcome disruptions faster by changing sources of supply and transport channels., marketing, input and labor.

Final, Building the resilience of vulnerable households is critical to ensuring a world free of hunger.. This can be done through improving access to assets, This can be done through improving access to assets.
