Milestones Achieved Milestone Description Guidelines/Manuals for production of lower pesticide high quality vegetables Deliverables 1. Hard and soft copies of Guidelines/Manuals (English & Vietnamese) including: The following manuals have been produced and comply with the current VietGAP regulation issued by MARD (Resolution No. 379, issued on 28 January 2008 by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development). Low-resolution print versions on these manuals are attached for the purposes of evaluation. High-resolution print versions of the manuals are also available if required. The manuals are produced for watermelons and cabbage production in both English and Vietnamese language. Each manual is in three parts: Part 1 – The Manual This contains all the crop specific information, requirements for safe vegetable production: the principles of safe on farm production as well as a list of approved pesticides for cabbage production in Vietnam. The sections are: Introduction How to use the VietGAP Manual: Cabbage Cabbage best practice guide • Agronomy • Pest and disease management • Harvesting and postharvest management • Quality assurance • Specifications for high quality cabbage • Guidelines for on-farm food safety: an overview • References Appendices Appendix 1. Impact of insecticides on natural enemies found in brassica vegetables Appendix 2. VietGAP: The General Regulation (Resolution No. 379, issued by MARD) Appendix 3. List of approved chemicals for use in cabbage production in Vietnam Part 2 Farmer Notebook This for the farmer to record details about each crop.

Part 3 Checklist This contains a checklist of the 65 requirements for VietGAP compliance. 2. Selection of suitable varieties (focus brassicas but to include other dry and heat tolerant crops) These are specified in the VietGAP manuals for cabbage and watermelon, and also in the reports attached to milestone report 3. 3. Low pesticide production systems The low pesticide production system, involving IPM and the use of soft chemical such as BT and other recent chemistry is explained in the VietGAP manuals. 4. Crop husbandry and post-harvest handling practices Crop husbandry techniques are explained in the VietGAP manuals. 5. Practices for extension of growing season The appropriate growing season and any relevant techniques for maximising the length of this growing season are explained in the VietGAP manuals. 6.
