(HBO) – In the face of the COVID-19 pandemic that has taken a heavy toll on socio-economic aspects, joining efforts by the entire political system, the farmers’ unions at all levels in Hoa Binh province have carried out a number of meaningful activities helping with the pandemic fight and the sale of agricultural products.

Facing serious impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic,
farmers have encountered numerous difficulties in selling their produce, which
has led to considerable economic losses. Given this, the Vietnam Farmers’ Union
Central Committee launched a programme boosting connectivity in the sale of
agricultural products in order to help farmers surmount the pandemic. In
response, the Standing Board of the Hoa Binh provincial Farmers’ Union has
taken steps to support members to sell their produce.
To carry out this programme, all-level farmers’
unions have focused on surveying the products whose sale needs promotion,
opening the sites for directly selling produce to consumers, boosting the sale
online, and equipping farmers with online sales skills via training courses.
They have also signed cooperation agreements on selling farm produce with
related parties, including the businesses managing such e-commerce platforms as
Postmart.vn and Voso.vn.
Nguyen Thi Huong Hai, Vice Chairwoman of the
provincial Farmers’ Union, said the union has stepped up communications on its
Facebook page and website to help introduce and sell local agricultural
products. Despite their limited number, the food and farm produce stores that
the union has helped to set up have brought into play their role in supplying
safe food for consumers. They have also served as the sites for gathering and
selling agricultural products from other localities.
Thanks to diverse activities supporting farmers,
over the past year, the Farmers’ Union of Hoa Binh province has helped sell
more than 120 tonnes of vegetables and fruit grown in Lac Son, Kim Boi, and Tan
Lac districts; tens of tonnes of organic orange from Cao Phong district; as
well as tens of tonnes of orange from Ha Giang province, lychee from Bac Giang
province, clean vegetables from Hanoi, and many other agricultural products
from Ninh Binh province. So far, the union has assisted the establishment of
four stores selling safe farm produce in Luong Son, Mai Chau, and Kim Boi
districts, and Hoa Binh city.
March 3 marked the first official working day for specialised agencies under the provincial People's Committee following the merger or transfer of functions and tasks from the previous agencies. On this day, the newly merged departments and agencies took proactive steps to arrange personnel, organise workflows, and implement tasks efficiently, ensuring that administrative procedures were carried out smoothly without interruption.
Kim Boi district of Hoa Binh province has thoroughly implemented and adhered to Resolution No. 18-NQ/TW on restructuring the organisational apparatus of the political system towards a streamlined, efficient, and effective direction, ensuring no disruption of work.
By mid-February, Da Bac district completed a plan to streamline its organisational apparatus and personnel work, marking a milestone in efforts to promote restructuring towards a leaner, more efficient organisational system, closely following directives from the Party Central Committee’s Resolution No. 18-NQ/TW, and Conclusion No. 121-KL/TW, and Resolution No. 27-NQ/TU of the provincial Party Committee and Conclusion No. 1103-KL/TU by the provincial Party Organisation’s standing board.

A strong Party cell ensures the effective implementation of the Party’s policies and continuous progress in all tasks," the Party Committee of Kim Boi commune, Kim Boi District, has rolled out the "four-good Party cell" model. The initiative has created a positive change, enhancing the leadership capacity and fighting spirit of Party organisations and their members.
