About this listen
From a small village in Vietnam to the co-owner of one of the country’s largest high-tech farms, Mr. Liem Quoc Pham has built UniFarm into a model of resilience and innovation. In this episode of the Global Farmer Voices Podcast, we explore how UniFarm grew from an idea into a 1,000-hectare operation that supplies bananas, melons, jackfruit, and other crops across Asia and beyond.
Mr. Liem shares how he spent two years traveling the world to study farming practices in Israel, New Zealand, Japan, and Australia — knowledge he brought home to Vietnam. He explains how UniFarm fought back against Panama disease, developed new banana varieties, and built a biotech center to power the future of food. Most importantly, he emphasizes why technology is essential for efficiency, sustainability, and attracting young people into agriculture.
As the Global Farmer Network marks 25 years of advocating for technology choices, this conversation illustrates how one farm’s vision can have a ripple effect, educating farmers, inspiring students, and protecting both people and the planet.
