(Baonghean.vn) - The entire Que Phong district currently has 16 cooperatives operating effectively, with many new and creative ways of doing things, enthusiastically participating in by the people such as: Que Phong Agricultural Production, Business and Service Cooperative; Que Son Agricultural and Bamboo Processing Cooperative; Muong Noc General Agricultural Service Cooperative... These are considered the "key", the fulcrum to help people develop the economy and stabilize their lives.

| Clean vegetables have been the strength of Que Son (Que Phong) in recent years. However, it is worth mentioning that people do not just stop at growing vegetables for individual business but have joined together to establish cooperatives. In particular, Hai Lam Cooperative was established nearly 5 years ago and has created connections for nearly 30 households in the area. |
 |
| Ms. Dao Thi Giang, a member of the cooperative, shared: "The association in business helps people plan their growing areas, access science and technology, and consume products more easily. Just counting the winter vegetable varieties, if successful, in about 1 month, the income will be over 6 million VND per sao." |
 |
| Realizing the economic value of the bamboo tree, in 2013 Que Son Bamboo Processing Cooperative was established with Mr. Bui Anh Dan as the head. After 4 years of operation, the Cooperative has attracted hundreds of workers, with an income of 2 - 7 million VND/person/month. |
 |
| Mr. Bui Anh Dan, director of the cooperative, shared: "Every day, we produce an average of 400 kg of incense sticks, and during peak times, we can produce 500 to 600 kg. Even though there are many, supply cannot meet demand. Sometimes, traders come to make contracts to buy more, but they have to give up because the goods are sold out after each week of production. During the 2015 Lunar New Year, the amount of incense sticks consumed was approximately 30 tons." |
 |
| The products of the cooperative are not only consumed within the province, but currently many localities in the Northern provinces are also regular consumers of the cooperative's products. Therefore, there is no shortage of jobs for cooperative members. |
 |
Since the Nghe An Province Cooperative Union organized training and technical training, the mushroom products of Muong Noc Mushroom Growing Cooperative have developed well, harvested on time, ensuring safety, and consumed all products as soon as they were produced. Up to now, the number of members has increased from 7 to over 100, with a stable income of 2.5-3 million VND/person/month. Mr. Lo Thanh Binh, director of the Cooperative, said: Previously, the Cooperative operated on a small scale, so the products were fragmented and the profits were low, but since being linked into a Cooperative, people have boldly invested in business, gradually stabilizing their lives to become rich. |
