Tuong Duong offers a variety of agricultural products for Tet.

(Baonghean.vn) - At this time tAt traditional markets in the mountainous district of Tuong Duong, goods for Tet have been displayed on shelves. Among them, many agricultural products have also been carefully prepared by the people.

Like many other members of the Ban Phong Clean Vegetable Garden Cooperative in Thach Giam Commune, Ms. Lo Thi Chien's family has nearly 1 hectare of land for growing various vegetables. In previous years, the weather was not favorable, so the family could only grow local vegetables and a few other vegetables. This winter-spring crop, the warm weather and little rain were favorable for vegetables of all kinds to grow well, so her family was able to grow more vegetables that were easy to sell in the market such as lettuce, onions, garlic, cabbage, etc. All the vegetables were grown by her with the right techniques and no chemicals were used. At this time, Ms. Chien's garden is harvesting and selling the previous crop and taking care of the next crop to serve the Tet market.

Farmers' agricultural products are chosen by consumers.

At the December market in Tam Thai commune, safe agricultural products have never been as abundant as this time. The amount of agricultural products supplied to consumers has doubled compared to the normal market. Precious agricultural products such as: moss, ginger, taro, millet, ginseng, wild areca roots or yams, and cassava dug up by local people in the forest are also brought to the fair.

In addition, agricultural products from livestock are also prepared in advance by livestock households, so the supply is quite abundant and stable, meeting the shopping needs of consumers. The price of beef ranges from 250-300 thousand VND/kg and pork from 120-150 thousand VND/kg. In particular, there is no need to worry much about preservatives, so consumers have many choices.

Ms. Lang Thi Hoa - a vendor in Ban Canh Trap, Tam Thai, Tuong Duong said: "The goods we bring here to sell these days before Tet are mostly taken from the forest. In addition, there are also self-produced goods such as rattan trays, rattan chairs, sticky rice presses, sticky rice elbows, knives, scissors, plows, hoes, all homemade. All are of good quality, in general, customers really like them and buy a lot of them."

Handicrafts are also sold at the fair.

Up to now, many agricultural products and specialties of the localities have won the sympathy of consumers. However, the difficulty of the district in the management and consumption of agricultural products is the issue of quality, because many small traders, due to greed, have mixed agricultural products that do not ensure quality into the market to serve Tet in the markets.

Mr. Nguyen Quoc Ly - Economic Infrastructure Department of Tuong Duong district said: We have directed all levels of the sector to participate in the interdisciplinary inspection team including police, agriculture, veterinary, industry and trade, and health to handle cases of mixing poor quality goods of unknown origin. Resolutely handle violations to avoid affecting people's health during the Lunar New Year.

According to observations, the agricultural product market is having many positive changes, products serving the needs of consumers at the end of the year have improved in both quality and quantity./.
