Farmers in Quy Hop are urgently harvesting their winter corn crop.

This winter, Quỳ Hợp district planted 479 hectares of corn. At the beginning of the season, TH Milk Company provided farmers with loans of 20kg of corn seeds and 500kg of NPK fertilizer per hectare to encourage them to plant corn on their rice fields. Currently, the communes of Châu Cường, Châu Quang, Châu Thái, and Châu Đình are harvesting corn stalks to sell to TH Milk Company and Vinamilk.

Mrs. Nguyen Thi Son in Hung Long hamlet, Chau Thai commune, is overjoyed during the winter corn harvest.

Currently, whole corn cobs are being purchased by companies from farmers directly in the fields at a price of 700,000 VND/ton. With an average yield of 2.4 tons/sao (approximately 48 tons of corn cobs per hectare), this will generate revenue of over 33 million VND.

To date, dairy processing plants have purchased corn from approximately 30% of the cultivated area. It is expected that all the corn will be purchased before December 20th (lunar calendar) so that people can prepare the land for planting the spring rice crop.
