Vietnam ramps up efforts to sustain dragon fruit exports to EU
May 14, 2026 | vnExpress |
Vietnam is strengthening efforts to maintain dragon fruit exports to the EU as the bloc tightens food safety and pesticide residue regulations. Dragon fruit exports remain under enhanced EU inspection, and upcoming rules will apply stricter residue limits for substances considered high risk to health.
In response, Vietnamese authorities are reviewing production practices, providing technical training, and working with EU officials to address compliance issues. Enhanced inspections, traceability systems, and corrective measures have already helped significantly reduce EU food safety warnings in recent years.
Vietnam is also promoting sustainable farming practices, reducing chemical use, and encouraging biological pest control to improve compliance with international standards. Officials view the stricter regulations as both a challenge and an opportunity to improve product quality, transparency, and long-term competitiveness in global markets.
