ONE MOVEMENT, TWO GOALS
Coming to Thanh Hoa commune this time, we witnessed households competing to build and renovate their gardens. Mr. Nguyen Trong Quang's garden in Hoa Nam hamlet has 10 orange trees over 5 years old, but in the past, due to buying poor quality seeds, it was not effective. Now, the Commune Farmers' Association has mobilized and directed the planning of a new garden. With nearly 500 m2According to Mr. Quang, the family divided this garden land into 2 parts, one part to grow fruit trees, including grapefruit and guava, and the other part to grow nutritious vegetables for the family. In the garden, paths and paths are arranged and a proper irrigation system is installed.

According to Ms. Nguyen Thi Oanh - President of Thanh Hoa Commune Farmers' Association, currently, the association is focusing on mobilizing members to build model gardens suitable to local realities. For gardens that have brought economic value, the fences will be renovated, cleaned and beautified; for gardens that are not economically viable, propaganda and mobilization of people will be carried out to renovate and add nutritious vegetable gardens in addition to the existing fruit trees.
"With the participation of the association through mobilizing members in the branch to participate, households renovate gardens and orient suitable plants, provide addresses to buy guaranteed tree varieties, support bricks to make paths, paths in the garden and irrigation pipes, after 2 months of implementation, in the commune, 6 model gardens have been formed. And this movement is continuing to spread widely."

Also according to the Chairman of the Thanh Hoa Commune Farmers' Association, not only participating in directing the construction of model gardens, the Farmers' Association also previously chaired the construction and development of fruit tree planting models, especially orange trees according to the district's V2 orange development project.
Accordingly, since the beginning of the term, the Commune Farmers' Association has directed the successful construction of 8 fruit tree growing models through supporting loan interest rates associated with supporting training in science and technology and preventing pests and diseases on crops.
Each model has from 0.5 to 2 hectares, such as Mr. Le Van Ngoc's household (Hoa Tien hamlet), Mr. Nguyen Ngoc Hien's household (Hoa Nam hamlet). From the direction of the Commune Farmers' Association, some areas of acacia plantation have been converted to fruit tree plantation and the area of V2 orange variety in Thanh Hoa has been increased to more than 9 hectares.
“Implementing the Resolution of the Thanh Chuong District Party Congress, term XXX, 2015 - 2020, the Thanh Chuong District Party Committee assigned the responsibility to the Farmers' Association to participate in the program of developing commodity crops and building new rural areas (NTM). The District Farmers' Association has developed a specific plan and directed communes and towns to implement it based on the planning of key crop areas identified by the district."

After nearly 3 years of directing the model building, along with technical guidance on planting, care, canopy creation, and pest control, up to now, the association's members have newly planted nearly 80 hectares of V2 oranges and Xa Doai oranges in 5 communes: Thanh Hoa, Thanh Nho, Thanh Duc, Hanh Lam, Thanh Thuy; nearly 60 hectares of Dien grapefruit in Thanh Lien, Thanh Tien, Thanh Ngoc, Thanh Phong communes.
Particularly for the task of building new rural areas, the District Farmers' Association has mobilized members to convert land and improve fields; actively trained farmers in production knowledge and vocational training.
And recently, the Standing Committee of the District Party Committee continued to direct the Farmers' Association to build model gardens for farmers in association with the construction of new rural areas, and up to now, 4 communes have implemented this with dozens of model gardens formed.
“TURN WASTE INTO SEEDS”
Similarly, the Thanh Chuong District Women's Union was assigned by the District Party Committee Standing Committee to participate in the program of developing commodity livestock farming, hunger eradication, poverty reduction, and new rural construction.
In addition to propaganda, mobilization, and creating all conditions in terms of mechanisms and policies for members to develop chicken, pig, buffalo, and cow farming, the association has directly directed the construction of a number of free-range chicken farming models of 1,000 or more chickens in Thanh Xuan commune; established a "Chicken Farming Cooperative Group" in Hanh Lam and Xuan Tuong communes; and at the same time implemented a model of women starting a business raising 5 or more cows at association facilities.
