"We are lent seeds and fertilizers without interest, and our rice is guaranteed at a high price. Thanks to that, production is profitable, unlike before when we almost only took labor for profit," Ms. Nam said excitedly.
According to Mr. Vo Van Giap - Director of the Agricultural Products Cooperative in Dien Lien, the VTNA6 rice variety is produced on a large scale in the form of production linkage between the Cooperative and Nghe An Agricultural Materials Joint Stock Corporation (VTNN). "VTNA6 rice has good yield and quality, and is trusted by people, so the association is quite favorable. The production process is synchronized, input costs are reduced, and the summer-autumn crop yield reaches over 7 tons/ha. This summer-autumn crop, we produced 68 hectares of VTNA6 rice" - Mr. Giap added.
