Built on 88.17 hectares in Củ Chi District at a cost of about VND152.6 billion ($8.03 million), the park is expected to promote the transfer of technology, and research and training in agriculture. It provides a model of hi-tech agricultural production for farmers, helping them shift from traditional farming methods to hi-tech ones, according to a statement released by the board. Apart from this, Hồ Chí Minh City authorities said they will speed up other two projects, namely Bio-technology Center in District 12 and Agriculture Exhibition Center in Củ Chi District in order to support hi-tech agricultural production in the city as well as its neighboring provinces.
