Celery is becoming a high-value agricultural product in Vietnam thanks to strong demand from both domestic and international markets. In addition to being consumed fresh, celery is also a key raw material for producing celery powder—especially freeze-dried celery powder, a product highly favored by consumers following a healthy lifestyle.

However, to meet export standards, celery must be grown in regions with suitable climate conditions, fertile soil, and proper cultivation practices. So, where in Vietnam is celery grown to achieve the highest quality standards? Let’s explore this with Goodprice.

1. REQUIREMENTS FOR CELERY TO MEET EXPORT STANDARDS

Celery is a cool-climate crop that does not tolerate prolonged intense heat. To achieve export-quality standards, celery must be grown in areas with year-round mild temperatures, nutrient-rich soil, and clean water sources. Key criteria include:

+ Climate

Ideal temperature: 15–22°C

Cool, humid air (but not overly wet)

A noticeable day–night temperature difference helps produce crisp, green, and juicy stalks

+ Soil

Loose, well-aerated soil rich in organic matter

Good drainage system

Neutral pH ranging from 6.0 to 7.0

+ Cultivation and Care Practices

Priority given to organic fertilizers

Limited use of pesticides

Strict control of clean and safe water sources

Harvesting at the right time to ensure maximum nutrient content

>> These factors determine the quality of fresh celery as well as processed products such as freeze-dried celery powder for both domestic and export markets.

2. WHERE IS CELERY IN VIETNAM GROWN TO EXPORT STANDARDS?

Although celery is cultivated in several provinces across Vietnam, not all regions meet export-quality requirements. Below are the most highly regarded celery-growing regions in Vietnam:

2.1. Lam Dong – Vietnam’s No.1 Celery-Growing Region

Lam Dong, often referred to as the “clean vegetable capital” of Vietnam, offers the highest standards in climate, soil quality, and agricultural output—making it perfectly suited for celery cultivation.
