Implementing the Plan for Applying Scientific and Technical Advances in the Production of a Number of Agricultural Models, in the 2021-2025 period, the People's Committee of Tuong Duong district has directed the application of science and technology to the process of producing safe vegetables according to VietGAP standards in Thach Giam town with a scale of 6 hectares. The model generates an income of 125 million VND/ha. In Phong village alone, there are about 2 hectares of safe vegetables according to VietGAP standards in Pieng Lung area. The whole village has 185 households, of which 54 households are in the cooperative group producing clean vegetables and fruits. Photo: GH

In the last days of the year, households in the Clean Vegetable and Fruit Cooperative in Phong village are busy taking care of, weeding, and cultivating vegetables, ready to supply the market for the New Year and then the Lunar New Year. People in Phong village started growing clean vegetables in 2011. Initially, the model received support from the Provincial Party Committee's Inspection Committee in coordination with the Faculty of Agriculture - Forestry - Fisheries (Vinh University). Households participating in the project were instructed on planting and care techniques and supported with vegetable varieties. Up to now, although the support has ended, the model is still developing well, bringing people a significant source of income (an average of 8-10 million VND/vegetable crop). Photo: GH-QA

According to Mr. Vi Van Hoang - Head of the Clean Vegetable Production Cooperative in Phong village (the man wearing a hat): For a long time, vegetables here have been known and favored because all stages of growing and caring for vegetables are done by hand, without using stimulants, pesticides, herbicides... Besides tubers and fruits such as cabbage, kohlrabi, cucumber... people also put vegetables such as mustard greens, lettuce, coriander, onions... into production to serve the needs of consumers, especially during Tet. Mr. Hoang's family has 600m2 of clean vegetables, last year's Tet season alone brought in about 15-16 million VND from vegetables. Photo: GH-QA

In particular, Ban Phong's tomato has become a 3-star OCOP product recognized at the provincial level at the end of 2021, so it is more popular and sells better. There are households that earn an income of 20 million VND/crop from tomato alone, such as Mr. Luong Van Thi and Ms. Vi Thi Dien... Photo: GH-QA

Accordingly, the Institute of Agricultural Biology, Orion Vina Food Co., Ltd. (Korea), local authorities and people have implemented it together. Not only are farmers supported in seeds and science and technology, they are also supported in consuming their products. Photo: QA

In order to meet market demand, especially during Tet, safe vegetable growers in Thach Giam town have intercropped short-term and long-term crops. After each row of vegetables is harvested, they are planted immediately. In addition to operating the irrigation system and providing technical guidance, the clean vegetable and fruit production cooperative also connects, finds outlets, and finds orders to expand the consumption market for people.
