As one of the most anticipated awards in the livestock industry, the Vietstock Awards serves as proof of the capabilities of businesses and organizations in researching, developing technology, and providing useful solutions to address issues within Vietnam’s livestock industry.

Vietstock Awards 2024 witnessed intense competition, attracting over 30 nominated enterprises from both domestic and international markets. The Award Council applied strict evaluation criteria to identify the most outstanding figures in Vietnam and the region.

After several days of screening, categorizing, and thoroughly considering each submission, Vietstock Awards 2024 officially revealed the brightest “stars” of Vietnam’s livestock industry.

These are the businesses truly deserving of recognition for their continuous contributions to the industry's development.

At the Vietstock Awards 2024 ceremony held on the evening of October 9 in Ho Chi Minh City, BAF Vietnam Agriculture Joint Stock Company was honored with two awards: Outstanding Livestock Enterprise in Waste Treatment and Management Technology and Outstanding Enterprise in Biosafety Livestock Farming.

To achieve this result, BAF Vietnam has always been deeply aware of its responsibility as a livestock enterprise concerning environmental issues, particularly in waste treatment and management technology.

BAF has been implementing and will continue to develop a modern livestock system that includes waste treatment and management activities. The company has invested in technology for waste collection, pressing, and composting to produce organic fertilizers for crop cultivation.

100% of the household waste generated is handed over to local authorities for collection, transportation, and processing according to state regulations, thus helping to reduce emissions into the environment and laying the groundwork for developing a circular economy.

In biosafety livestock farming, BAF Vietnam has partnered with reputable organizations and leading global livestock corporations to establish a strict biosafety management system throughout the entire chain. This system encompasses everything from the sourcing of livestock feed ingredients to the operations at farms, ensuring compliance with strict regulations. All efforts aim to protect animal health and ensure biosafety.

BAF Vietnam is proud to be a large-scale, modern livestock enterprise that adheres to international standards in a closed Feed-Farm-Food model.

The company focuses on implementing best practices in the livestock industry and internationally recognized food safety standards throughout the supply chain, aligning with the global movement toward green and clean agricultural development.

With the advice of international organizations, BAF continues to raise standards in biosafety, animal welfare, animal health, and agricultural production at its livestock facilities, thereby ensuring a reliable pork supply for consumers and contributing to the improvement of livestock practices in Vietnam.
