(Baonghean.vn) - According to plan, within one year, Anh Son farmers will complete planting bamboo to prevent erosion along the entire Lam River flowing through the district.

Responding to the program "Tet tree planting to forever remember Uncle Ho" in 2024, the Farmers' Association of Anh Son district has chosen to undertake the project of planting bamboo and trees to prevent erosion and landslides along the Lam River. Photo: TP

Previously, in Anh Son district, erosion and landslides occurred, affecting production and people's lives. In the photo: Erosion of the Lam River bank through Lang Son commune has been occurring for many years (photo taken in October 2023) and has not been resolved yet. Photo: TP

If the embankment is made of concrete, the cost will be up to thousands of billions. Therefore, planting bamboo along the river bank is the most feasible solution to preserve the land, protect the village, and protect civil works. Photo: TP

Bamboo is a low-cost, low-maintenance variety with strong growth. "Our ancestors used to plant bamboo to prevent landslides along the river banks because bamboo is easy to grow and has many roots, so it holds the soil well," said Mr. Nguyen Dinh Ca, head of Hamlet 1, Lang Son Commune. Photo: TP

Responding to the movement launched by the District Farmers’ Association, since the beginning of February, farmers in the communes of Tao Son, Lang Son, Dinh Son, Thach Son, Long Son… have planted thousands of bamboo trees along the Lam River to prevent erosion. Photo: TP

In addition to the bamboo prepared by the Association, many member families also dug up bamboo roots in their gardens to plant. The atmosphere of planting bamboo was like a village festival, with people digging holes, bringing bamboo down, planting, and watering... Photo: TP

It is expected that within 1 year, communes and towns will complete planting bamboo to prevent erosion along the entire Lam River flowing through Anh Son district. Photo: TP

Comrade Nguyen Quang Tung, member of the Provincial Party Committee, Chairman of the Provincial Farmers' Association said: "Every flood season, the riverbed is widened, eating deep into the production land. Planting bamboo is low cost, easy to do, and is an effective solution to protect agricultural land, traffic works, and irrigation works. This is also an important solution to regulate the river to effectively respond to climate change, stabilize people's lives and production. After the model of planting bamboo to prevent landslides of farmers in Anh Son district, we will expand it to many other localities."
