Que Phong allocates over 310 hectares of fields for people to produce.

(Baonghean.vn) - From March to May 2016, Que Phong District coordinated with departments and organizations to assign 310 hectares of fields to 8 communes including Tien Phong, Thong Thu, Quang Phong, Hanh Dich, Nam Nhoong, Tri Le, Chau Thon, and Muong Noc.

Up to now, Tri Le commune has burned and treated the vegetation of 110 hectares of upland fields to ensure safety and prevent the fire from spreading. It is estimated that by about 5/6, people will have finished treating the vegetation of the assigned upland fields.

Que Phong Forest Ranger Department coordinated with relevant departments to allocate swidden fields to people in Tien Phong commune.

Mr. Tran Duc Loi, Deputy Forest Ranger of Que Phong District, said: In order to reduce slash-and-burn farming causing forest fires, the People's Committee of Que Phong District has established the "Que Phong District Forest Management Steering Committee" headed by the Vice Chairman of the District People's Committee. The Steering Committee is responsible for advising the Chairman of the District People's Committee to resolve issues related to the work of forest management.
