(Baonghean.vn) - Dai Hue Mountain (Nam Anh, Nam Dan) is unusually brilliant at this time of year when the persimmons begin to ripen. This is a famous product of this semi-mountainous land.
Persimmons have been planted in Nam Anh for a long time, but in the past, people did not grow much because of the limited land, and this is a "difficult" tree species. However, after the project "Restoring local persimmon varieties" supported by the Department of Science and Technology, Nam Anh persimmon trees have truly become a brand, bringing in a good income for the people. Out of 9 hamlets in the commune, 4 hamlets consider this a "strategic" crop with a total area of over 40 hectares. On average, each year the whole commune harvests about 500 tons of fruit, generating a revenue of about 6 billion VND.

 |
| There are two types of persimmons in Nam Anh: egg persimmons (large, red fruit) and small, yellow persimmons (small, yellow fruit). |
 |
| Ms. Ho Thi Hong (Hamlet 5) said: Whether persimmons are delicious or not depends on the soaking technique. If they are soaked for too long, they will lose their sweetness, but if they are not soaked long enough, the fruit will be astringent. |
 |
| In Nam Anh commune, there are currently 5 households that purchase more than 70% of the people's persimmons. Nam Anh persimmons are present in the market inside and outside the province. |
 |
| During harvest season, many traders come to Nam Anh commune to buy persimmons. |
 |
| Along Highway 46 from Muou Bridge to Nam Dan town, it is not difficult to see people selling this fruit. |
