(Baonghean.vn) - Although the chayote harvest season has just begun, farmers in Quynh Lien commune, Hoang Mai town are very excited because the trees are full of fruit and have good prices.

We visited the chayote garden of Ms. Ho Thi Ha's family, village 3, Quynh Lien commune, just when the family was harvesting chayote. Ms. Ha said that her family has 2 sao of chayote, started planting in late August and has now started harvesting. The first crop she picked 500 kg of fruit, this crop she picked 200 kg. Because it is early in the season, not much has been harvested to transport to the northern market but only consumed in the region, so chayote is priced at 4,000 VND/kg, but in just 10 days when the main crop begins, the purchasing facilities will collect goods for export, chayote will be priced at 6,000 - 7,000 VND/kg.

At the beginning of the season, the chayote trellis is already full of fruit, the yield of chayote can reach 12 tons/sao/season.

Currently, the entire Quynh Lien commune has 80 hectares of chayote. This product has long been favored by consumers everywhere because it does not use pesticides or preservatives during production and transportation to the consumer market. Chayote is an early and long-term crop, starting to bear fruit after 1.5 - 2 months of planting and the harvest lasts for 4 months. The average yield is 12 tons/sao/crop, so even though there are years when prices drop, chayote growers still make a profit.

The joy of farmers when chayote has a good harvest and good price.

Mr. Ho Ngoc Tang - Chairman of Quynh Lien Commune People's Committee said: "Chau su is the main winter crop of the commune, bringing high economic efficiency. The locality has also instructed people to grow according to the plan to avoid the situation of supply exceeding demand. At the same time, we are in the process of building a clean vegetable brand for chayote to increase the value of the product."

Hopefully from now until the end of the season, chayote will maintain its price, helping farmers gain high profits, contributing to the development of household economies, thereby creating conditions for the local socio-economy to develop in a sustainable direction.
