| The company has just demonstrated a machine for caring for and fertilizing sugarcane in Tan Phu commune, Tan Ky district, witnessed by 30 households. The advantage of this machine is that it plows about 25 - 30 cm deep, while buffaloes and cows only plow to a depth of about 10 cm. The deep plowing machine is very good for sugarcane to grow quickly. Photo: Phuong Thao |

| Sugarcane care machines also reduce costs for growers. According to calculations by households, if a farmer does 1 hectare of sugarcane manually, the cost is up to 3 million VND, but applying sugarcane care machines not only reduces labor time, but the investment cost is only nearly 2 million VND. In particular, it helps farmers reduce the pressure of manual labor shortage during busy harvest days. Photo: Phuong Thao |
