The main grapefruit harvest season is from July to October every year. After the grapefruit bears fruit, the care process requires pruning the fruit batches, keeping only a certain number of fruits on each tree. Photo: Hoai Thu

Ms. Nguyen Thi Hang - owner of a herbal product manufacturing enterprise that meets OCOP standards in Do Luong district said that her company has cooperated with a VietGAP grapefruit farm in Nghia Loc commune to purchase young grapefruit for 5 years now. Each time she purchases, Ms. Hang goes directly to the garden to check the quality of the raw materials. Photo: Hoai Thu

Each batch purchases about 1 ton of young grapefruit over several days. Gardeners mobilize workers to harvest about 200-300 kg of young grapefruit per day. In addition to purchasing young grapefruit in Nghia Dan, Hang Moon Herbal Import-Export Company also purchases from gardens of grapefruit growers in Lam Son commune and neighboring communes in Do Luong district.

Young grapefruits are purchased at an average price of 2,000 VND/kg. “In addition to the cost of buying raw materials, the cost of hiring workers to harvest, transport and process grapefruits is also quite high,” said Ms. Nguyen Thi Hang. Photo: Hoai Thu
