At this time, farmers in Thanh Chuong and Nam Dan districts are harvesting. The price of brooms has dropped sharply, only 2/3 of last year's price.

In recent years, the hills of Roan Roan have been zoned off for specialized cultivation, intercropping (sim - Roan Roan), and mixed cultivation in Thanh Chuong, Nam Dan..., bringing economic value to many farming households.

Local people in the province often harvest the plant during the dry season (April to August) for easy drying. This year, there was a lot of rain in July, so the harvest of this plant seems to take longer. Ms. Nguyen Thi Bien in Thanh Xuan commune (Thanh Chuong) said that up to now, her purchasing group still has many areas of the plant that have been purchased from local people but have not been harvested.

Nowadays, people often sell whole hills of green tea to traders, then they hire workers to harvest. Some families cut, dry, clean and then sell to traders. Harvesting green tea on gentle hills, near the road... is quite convenient. On the contrary, high hills, far from the road, it is difficult to travel, transporting the plants is quite difficult. Ms. Bui Thi Thuy in Thanh Lam commune (Thanh Chuong) shared: Starting from April, her group went to buy green tea in all the communes in the area, then hired workers to harvest for many months. Normally, each day, only 4-5 people are hired to cut the plants. On days when goods are needed, 15-17 workers are mobilized. Photo: Huy Thu

People who go to cut trees on sunny days often wear long-sleeved shirts, gloves, and boots to avoid cutting their hands and feet, especially if they step on sharp tree roots, as well as to guard against bee stings. Photo: Huy Thu

After cutting, the bamboo shoots can be dried on the spot for 1-2 days, then transported home or after harvesting, transported home to gather and wait to dry. To dry bamboo shoots, people often choose a sunny day, after drying they have to pound, knead, bundle... Mr. Phan Thai Xuan - one of the households with the largest bamboo shoot area in Thanh Xuan commune (Thanh Chuong) shared: This year, the price of bamboo shoots has dropped sharply. Last year, his bamboo shoots sold for 45 million VND, but this year they only sold for 21 million VND. Photo: Huy Thu

According to local people, if the harvest is done in May or June, the strong sunlight will weaken and burn the regenerated seedlings, which will clearly affect the quality of the next crop. On the contrary, if the harvest is done in late spring or early summer, August or September, the seedlings will grow better. Photo: Huy Thu

Ms. Nguyen Thi Lien - a household that has been cultivating for many years in Thuong Tan Loc commune (Nam Dan) said: Households that harvest by themselves can cut it in a rolling manner (cutting all the big and small trees) or by pruning (only choosing good trees to cut). Her family chose the pruning method so that it can be harvested all year round. Each time it is cut and dried, a truck will be called to import it. "This year, the price has clearly dropped sharply, and the goods are not selling as well as in previous years" - Ms. Lien said. Photo: Huy Thu

The process of kneading the bamboo shoots clean also takes a lot of time. Each worker participating in harvesting bamboo shoots is paid 250,000 VND/day. Photo: Huy Thu

The tree produces two main products: brooms (tied into bundles) and leaves and flowers packaged into bags. The current price of brooms is 11,000 VND/kg (about 7,000 - 8,000 VND/kg lower than in 2023. The price of flowers and leaves is 80,000 VND/bag (20,000 VND/bag lower than last year). Ms. Nguyen Thi Hai - a trader specializing in purchasing brooms in Xuan Tuong commune (Thanh Chuong) shared: Because the types of brooms are increasingly diverse, and are imported from all over the world such as the South, Laos..., the price of brooms is falling more and more.
