After more than 2 years of implementing Decision 16/2012/QD-UBND of the Provincial People's Committee (2012-2014), the Province has supported 60% of the cost for localities to invest in purchasing biological products, equivalent to over 490 million VND.

The Department of Science and Technology assigned the Center for Application of Science and Technology Advances to organize training and instructions on the use of Compos Maker, resulting in the provision of 26,340 kg of the product to people in the districts of Quy Hop, Nghia Dan, Thanh Chuong, Anh Son, Tan Ky... The effectiveness of applying the product to fertilizer production has contributed to increasing the productivity of crops by 15-20%, helping farmers save production costs, solving the problem of lack of organic fertilizer in the fields, especially not causing environmental pollution.

However, many localities have not paid attention to implementing the policy, some districts have not met the actual needs of the people, payment of support funds for people to buy products is still slow, production and transportation of products is cumbersome...

Speaking at the conference, Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Huynh Thanh Dien emphasized: Through the conference program and practical experiences from applying Compos Maker biological products to produce organic microbial fertilizers from agricultural by-products, the Department of Science and Technology needs to coordinate with districts to deeply evaluate related issues.

This work must consider factors that are suitable for specific crops and production areas, propose impact solutions, manufacturing methods as well as appropriate distribution systems, simplify procedures in fertilizer production applications so that people can easily access production. The Vice Chairman requested the Department of Science and Technology to synthesize opinions and propose a draft to the Provincial People's Council to have an investment direction for this technology in the coming time.
