Under the project, irrigational and power systems were constructed to serve
vegetable production on 2.6 ha of land in Ha Bi commune. The district budget
financed the costs of seedlings and materials for vegetable cultivation and six
training courses on safe vegetable plantation. Meanwhile, the provincial budget

protection drugs.
Thanks to the project, productivity surged 10 percent while local farmers
earned more than 30 million VND in profit.

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
