In 2006, the [Ag University of Hanoi Vietnam] in joint efforts with Stoner established the postgraduate doctoral program in aeroponics.

The university's Agrobiotech Research Center, under the direction of [Dr. N. Thach], is using aeroponic laboratories to advance Vietnam's minituber potato production for certified seed potato production.

The historical sigfnicants for aeroponics - its the first time a nation has specifically called out for aeroponics to further an agricultural sector, stimulate farm economic goals, meet increased demands, improve food quality and increase production.
Potatoes are one of the world's top foods containing a high level of protein. "We have shown that aeroponics, more than any other form of agricultural technology, will significantly improve Vietnam's potato production. We have very little tillable land, aeroponics makes complete economic sense to us”, attested Thach.

Vietnam joined the World Trade Organization (WTO) in January 2007. The impact of aeroponics in Vietnam will be felt at the farm level.
Aeroponic integration in Vietnam agriculture will begin by producing a low cost certified disease-free organic minitubers. Which in turn will be supplied to local farmers for their field plantings of seed potatoes and commercial potatoes. Potato farmers will benefit from aeroponics because their seed potatoes will be disease-free and grown without pesticides. Most importantly for the Vietnamese farmer, it will lower their cost of operation and increase their yields, says Thach.
