(HBO) - Farmers in Hoa Binh province are leveraging technology to change agricultural production towards safe and smart agriculture. Farms have become larger with billions of dong in investment that has yielded high-quality agricultural products and a stable and a prosperous life for many farmers.
Farmers in Dong
Nhat village, Dong Tam commune, Lac Thuy district develop the model of raising
chickens for eggs, ensuring food security.
In
2018, Ms. Bui Thi Lich, Huong hamlet, Yen Phu commune, Lac Son district took
part in a free-range chicken project. She built a barn capable of housing 1,000
breeding chickens. She also raised earthworms as chicken feed. Lich said raising
chickens in the garden combined with raising earthworms can take advantage of
locally available food sources, helping to reduce feed costs, increasing
breeding efficiency, and limiting diseases. Worms are a nutritious food source
for chickens, a healthy substitute for industrial feed. Cultivation of
earthworms is relatively easy to do, Lich said. She added, since starting the
project, her family's chicken products are popular with customers thanks to the
quality of the meat. Profits from this model increase day by day.
"Farmers

farmer households to access loans from banks of over 3.5 trillion VND. The
association also actively coordinates with departments, branches and businesses
to provide training for local farmers on skills in producing clean agricultural
products and food hygiene and safety.

Farmers' Association said in the past, most localities were stuck in the old

technical advances such as closed cages, installation of automatic feeders, air
conditioning systems for cooling in summer, heating in winter, ventilation fan
systems, livestock waste treatment models to ensure disease-free livestock
production processes, without causing environmental pollution. This is also the
basic premise for farmers 4.0 to gradually master technology, and apply it to
daily life and production towards a more professional and modern agricultu
