An Overview of Agricultural Pollution in Vietnam : The Livestock Sector

In the past 10 years, Vietnam’s population has grown by around 1.03 percent per year, increasing from 83.1 million in 2005 to 93.4 million in 2015. Food demand has also increased rapidly as population and incomes have increased, and food consumptio...
