(Baonghean.vn) - Clean vegetables from Ban Phong (Thach Giam commune - Tuong Duong) have long been known to the market for not using stimulants, pesticides, herbicides... All stages are done manually. Currently, people are focusing on the Tet vegetable crop with all kinds of vegetables such as mustard greens, cabbage, broccoli, onions, tomatoes...
 |
| The clean vegetable model in Phong village (Thach Giam commune - Tuong Duong) has been implemented since 2011 with 54 households participating on an area of over 3 hectares. This model has long been known for specializing in providing safe vegetables to the market. |
 |
| At present, people are actively preparing the land to plant crops in time for Tet. |
 |
| This season, households in Phong village were supported with 90 thousand tomato plants and fertilizer. This is a type of tomato that grows well and has high yield in the mountainous district of Tuong Duong. |
 |
| In 2015, the tomato crop failed due to the cold weather. This year, as a precaution, people have built a trellis to protect the plants. |
 |
| The first citrus tomatoes of the season have begun to develop. |
 |
| New bean acreage planted by farmers in Phong village. |
 |
| Besides, many other bean beds are also very fruitful. |
 |
| At present, each kilogram of beans costs 20,000 VND. This is the motivation for households in Phong village to prepare for the new crop to serve Tet. |
 |
| Scallions are trimmed and sold gradually by people. |
 |
| According to Ms. Lo Thi Tam - head of the vegetable growing team in Phong village, "Vegetables in Phong village are handmade at all stages, so during Tet there is not enough supply for the market." |
 |
| To ensure clean vegetables, people have to check each vegetable plant to catch worms. |
 |
| Besides, the irrigation water source is always proactively provided by farmers to ensure vegetables are always green and healthy. |
