Da Lat greenhouses
A cool plateau at 1,500 meters: vegetables, flowers and strawberries all year round. There are so many greenhouses that the city has started to restrict them.
Numbers
- High-tech farming: 107,217 ha; VietGAP and GlobalGAP: 20,508 ha; organic: 4,024 ha (10.2025).
- Greenhouses: more than 5,726 ha in the province and ≈2,940 ha in Da Lat (2025).
- More than 103 ha of illegal greenhouses have been torn down: the city restricts them within built-up areas.
- The province’s target: 20–30% less water for irrigation.

Agribusiness
VietGAP and GlobalGAP certificates open the door to exports and retail chains.
Video
A video search on third-party platforms — it opens in a new tab.
