(HBO) - In recent years, the Hoa Binh Party Committee has issued various resolutions on the sustainable development of cultivation, animal husbandry and aquatic farming, as well as new-style rural area building, among others. Their effective implementation has created significant changes in the local agro-forestry growth.
The hill-chicken cooperative in
Lac Son district’s Huong Nhuong commune raises chickens following value chains
for higher commercial benefits.
The provincial agriculture has been propelled toward higher
value added and sustainable agricultural growth, with a focus on new-style
rural area building. The resolutions on improving mixed garden and expanding
plantations of citrus fruit and safe vegetables have helped the local cultivation
sector grow 5.4 percent. The sector’s production value, meanwhile, accounted
for 67 percent of the local agriculture’s, while its per-hectare revenue
increased to 128.4 million VND (5,539 USD).
Hoa Binh now has 11,500 hectares of citrus fruit plantations,
of which 2,500 hectares has been certificated as meeting the VietGap, food
safety or organic standards. The resolutions encouraging caged-fish farming, meanwhile,
have fueled the productivity of fish farms on Hoa Binh river.
In 2020, the entire province has 4,700 fish cages on the Da
river and 14 farms meeting the VietGap standards. The local agriculture sector has recorded an annual growth
rate of about 4.1 percent. Hoa Binh’s new-style rural area building programme also
reaped fruitful outcomes. By the end of 2020, the province will have three
districts fulfilling the mission and 44.3 percent of its communes completing 19
new-style rural area criteria. This means Hoa Binh will realise its goals set
by the national target programme one year ahead of schedule./.
Over recent years, the Farmers' Union of Mai Chau district has implemented numerous specific programmes and activities to support its members in developing products under the One Commune One (OCOP) programme. These efforts have contributed to enhancing local agricultural branding, increasing goods value, and improving incomes and living standards for residents.
Since 2022, the Hoa Binh Department of Education and Training has provided advice for the provincial People's Committee to issue Plan No. 219/KH-UBND on November 17, 2022, which outlines the implementation of a project titled "Enhancing the application of Information Technology (IT) and Digital Transformation in Education and Training for the 2022–2025 period, with a vision to 2030.” As of now, the local education sector has made significant progress in IT adoption and digital transformation.
Hoa Binh allocated over 30 trillion VND (nearly 1.18 billion USD) to develop infrastructure systems in ethnic minority and mountainous areas during 2019 - 2024. Priority was given to transport and irrigation infrastructure; markets; schools; medical stations; communal houses; and power grid, telecommunication, radio, and television systems.
The Hoa Binh provincial organising committee for anniversary activities on December 17 held a ceremony to unveil a ceramic mural on the local military-civilian ties and release a book on the Party and political work of the provincial armed forces during 1947 – 2024, in commemoration of the 80th anniversary of the Vietnam People’s Army (VPA) and 35th anniversary of the All-People Defence Festival.
In recent years, Hoa Binh has allocated significant resources to foster cooperative economy, helping ethnic minorities capitalise on their potential and advantages to escape poverty.
As a mountainous district still facing numerous challenges, Da Bac has made notable progress in advancing administrative reforms across various areas. The district has prioritised reorganising and streamlining its administrative apparatus, operating "one-stop-shop” units, and applying information technology (IT) in the handling of administrative procedures. Efforts have also been directed toward upgrading infrastructure and equipment to enhance service quality for residents and businesses.
