For more than 7 years now, the Huoi Phay mountain area of Ta Ca commune (Ky Son district), located about 3 km from National Highway 7, has been chosen by the people of Hoa Son village as a place to grow clean vegetables and fruit trees such as pineapple, banana, jackfruit, papaya, etc. With a total area of more than 10 hectares, this vegetable area has helped many households here have a stable income and escape poverty.

According to Mr. Luong Van Hoang, his family has about 1.5 hectares of land growing vegetables and fruit trees in Huoi Phay mountain. Vegetables are grown seasonally for short-term use but each day still brings in at least 500,000 VND. More than 7,000 pineapple trees are growing until around May 2024 and will be harvested, earning about 200 million VND. "In the first 6 months of the year, my family earned 160 million VND from this vegetable garden. By the end of this season, it is estimated to be over 300 million VND. If you work hard, the profit will be much higher than working for hire and growing rice." Photo: Dao Tho

Mr. Lo Van Them - head of the gardening group of Hoa Son village said: Initially, there were about 6 households coming to produce, later some more households created a clean vegetable growing model of Hoa Son village. All the vegetables harvested here and brought to Muong Xen town were purchased by traders, if they wanted a higher price, they would bring them to the markets to sell. Photo: Dao Tho

On the hilly areas of Huoi Phay, people grow all kinds of vegetables, tubers, and fruits. Thanks to the favorable climate and suitable soil, the crops grow well. Vegetables such as cabbage, cauliflower, local cabbage, cucumber, beans, and tomatoes bring daily income to the people. Currently, many households are actively planting new vegetables to serve the Lunar New Year market in time. Photo: Dao Tho

“All households here must commit to a common agreement not to use stimulants and pesticides in the process of growing vegetables. If discovered, they will be fined according to regulations,” Mr. Lo Van Them shared. In the photo: People kill insects by manually catching them. Photo: Dao Tho

Currently, most households here have installed automatic irrigation systems to take care of their vegetable gardens. Photo: Dao Tho

After harvesting, people use the discarded vegetables as animal feed. Thanks to this rotation, many households have developed cattle, pig and chicken farming for high income. Photo: Dao Tho

However, each time bringing vegetables down the mountain for local households is quite difficult because the road is small and steep. According to research, the authorities of Ky Son district are planning to expand the planting area and open roads to the production area so that people can further develop this model. Photo: Dao Tho
