During the spring crop, the district plans
to cultivate 4,290 ha, with 1,950 ha of rice, 1,740 ha of other crops, and 600
ha of other annual plants. The district has completed rice growing while about
22.7 percent of the crop area has been covered.
According to the district Division of
Agriculture and Rural Development, the cultivation has been conducted on
schedule, thanks to thorough preparations in varieties, materials and
fertilisers.
The prices of varieties and materials have
remained stable, with diverse types, ensuring the production progress. Luong
Son district has sown 60 tonnes of rice, all of which have been qualified.
Before devising the spring crop production
plan, the district People’s Committee had instructed communes and townships to review
the inefficient areas of rice and crops and replace them with higher-value
plants like galangal, lemongrass and vegetables.
Since the beginning of this year, the committee also adopted an anti-drought
plan, and asked communes and townships to outline irrigation plans for the
spring crop.
Nguyen Thi Hien from Phu Ngoc hamlet, Cu
Yen commune said this year’s spring weather is favourable to rice cultivation.
"My family began growing rice on the second
day of the lunar new year, and completed the work on the fifth day,” she said.
"This year, we have about 1,500 sq.m of rice.”
Apart from farming, the husbandry,
aquaculture and forestry production have also developed stably.
The district counts 13,051 buffaloes and cows, 46,704 pigs, and 1.3 million
fowls, with no major diseases on the livestock and poultry.
Localities expect to have 360 ha of
aquatic products. Meanwhile, about 9,000 trees have been grown across the
district.
Luong Son has made good performance in
forest management and protection, with no fires and violations of the Law on
Forest Protection and Development.
Product consumption chains have been
formed in the district in order to promote local products like organic vegetables,
citrus and banana. Cooperatives and cooperative groups have worked to win the
OCOP title for their products.
Nguyen Duc Anh, Vice Chairman of the district
People’s Committee, said the district is resolved to maintain and promote the
quality of new-style rural communes and advanced new-style rural communes this
year.
It aims to have two additional advanced
new-style rural communes and two model new-style rural communes in the year,
and more than two products winning the provincial-level OCOP status in the
year. /.
