Residential Area No. 5 has 25 hectares of farming land with 85 farming households that have actively restructured plant cultivation, using high-yield and high-quality rice varieties.

Under a scheme on agricultural restructuring for 2021-2025, Lac Thuy’s total farming land is maintained at 9,300 hectares and cultivation accounts for 51.3% of the local agro-forestry-fishery sector.

The district  has also promoted the organic vegetable farming model, under which farmers, cooperatives, production groups and businesses are connected with each other, with a total area of 155 hectares, covering Chi Ne and Ba Hang Doi townships, and Dong Tam, Phu Nghia and Thong Nhat communes. Meanwhile, the area of fruit trees stands at over 1,490 hectares.

The locality has successfully rolled out the production and consumption model of Bac Huong 9 – a high-quality variety – with an area of 100 hectares in Thong Nhat, Khoan Du and Phu Thanh communes, raising the area of high-quality rice varieties to 750 hectares, making up 23% of the combined rice area in the district.

Lac Thuy orange, chicken, custard-apple, goat and tea are now major brands of the district.

Hoang Thi Thu Hang, Vice Chairwoman of the district People’s Committee, said Lac Thuy has implemented a plan on ensuring food security towards green agriculture, climate change adaptation, sustainable development and environmental protection.

Lac Thuy will adjust and supplement the land use planning scheme to better serve the agro-forestry-fishery sector in line with regulations, and attract investors in agriculture and rural development, she said./.
