(HBO) - Taking advantage of the cool weather conditions of Quyen Chien Highland Commune, Mr. Bui Van Tan, Doi Village, Tuan Lo Commune, Tan Lac District has bravely leased land to invest in growing "imported” vegetables, which are originated from Korea with varieties such as radish, green onion, cabbage and cauliflower ... with initial effectiveness.
Mr. Bui Van Tan, Doi Village, Tuan Lo Commune
(Tan Lac) checked the Korean radish seedlings.
In May of 2017, Tan decided to go to Quyet
Chien and survey the soil in Bieng village and found that it was suitable for
growing varieties of vegetables. He negotiated with his family to rent the land
areas of 8 households with an area of nearly 1.5 hectares in 5 years with the
rent of 23 million VND / ha. During the implementation, he was assisted by GNI
Project (Good Neighbors International), a Korean non-governmental organization
that supports the growers who plant vegetables originated from South Korea. The
project has supported his family in terms of technology. At the same time, the
GNI Project acts as an intermediary to connect enterprises in product
consumption. So, he was more confident when implementing the model.
With the Korean radish variety, Tan has
planted 5,000 m2 and 1,200 m2 of green onion. It depends on the different
seasons and planting time, for example, the summer crop of radish will take
about 55 - 65 days, the winter crop takes about 65-75 days to harvest, the weight is also different. At this time, the
weather is still cold, the radish grows well so the weight reaches at 2.4 kg /
the biggest bulb, the average is 1.2 kg / bulb. They are selling at the price
of 12,000 VND / kg (if being planted in the summer, the sale price is up to
18,000 - 20,000 VND / kg). With green onions, he can harvest only after 4
months. The average weight of 3 gr / one green onion and it is selling at the
price of 20,000 VND / kg.
Mr. Bui Van Tan shared: Growing Korean
vegetables and roots gives very high productivity. By the end of 2017, my
family earned 15 tons of radishes, 2 tons of green onions, collected more than
100 million VND after deducting all the expenses. By the beginning of 2018,
turnips and green onion products will be harvested; the yield is expected to be
higher than in the previous year. Apart from productivity and output, factors
of design and product quality must be taken into consideration. To satisfy the
customers’ expectation, the products must be beautiful in design but absolute
safe in quality for consumers, so the products can be sustainable. Therefore,
my radish and green onion products do not meet the demand.
It can be said that the model of planting
"imported" vegetables of Mr. Bui Van Tan has many prospects, bringing
many clean and new products of upland communes to the market. In the upcoming time,
he plans to grow in all the land which he has rented and created jobs for local
households at the same time.

Red grapefruit is a native crop of Tan Lac district, where the fertile soil and favourable climate create ideal conditions for its growth. With over 80% of the area being mountainous, at an altitude of 300-400 metres above sea level, red grapefruits here thrive on well-drained, fertile hillside soil. The region’s large temperature variation between day and night enhances the fruit's nutrient absorption. The local cultivation techniques also contribute to its uniqueness
