(HBO) – The People’s Committee of Yen Lac district has held a conference to review the efficiency of a chili-growing model for export in the locality in 2018.
The value linkage chain-based chili
cultivation model in the 2017 - 2018 period was successfully piloted in An Lac
commune.
The model has been implemented on 4ha of land
in An Lac commune, using F1 hybrid horn chili variety No. 20 under the form of production and consumption linkage, in the framework of a project on concentrated
chili and pumpkin production
and consumption linkage to ensure food safety in 2017-2018.
Now is the time for harvesting chili, and local farmers involved in the project
can initially evaluate the economic efficiency
produced by the plant, as well as the role played by partners involved in the
value chain.
Accordingly, the F1 hybrid horn chili seed can grow and develop well in An Lac
commune. It is resistant to cold weather. Pest infestation on this plant is at mild
level.
Although chilli cultivation under this
model required more financial and technical investment during the phase of seedlings
care and harvest than the cultivation of rice and maize, its economic
efficiency is superior. According to statistics from the Vietnam Chili Co.,Ltd,
total cost for each sao (360sq.m) of chili is 1,270,000 VND, while turnover is 6
million VND, thus, each sao brings a profit of 4,730,000 VND, translating into 131 million VND in profit
from 1 ha of chili./.
After more than four years of implementing a project launched by the Hoa Binh Party Committee’s Standing Board on developing agriculture and promoting product consumption linked with building new-style rural areas for the 2021-2025 period, the province’s industry and trade sector has made significant strides, greatly contributing to local socio-economic development.
Luong Son district has identified 2025 as the year for the accelerated breakthrough to successfully implement the socio-economic development plan for the 5-year period from 2021 to 2025. The district has been focusing on executing the plans and trying to achieve a GRDP growth rate of approximately 15%.
Since the beginning of this year, under the direction of the Department of Agriculture and Environment, the Sub-Department of Agricultural, Forestry, and Fishery Product Quality Management has strengthened the integration of the professional activities to promote and guide the organizations and individuals in the production and trading of agricultural, forestry, and fishery products to comply with the legal regulations regarding the use of chemicals, pesticides and veterinary medicines in crop cultivation, livestock farming and aquaculture. They also provide guidance to processing and manufacturing establishments on keeping the records to trace the product origins and using food additives from the approved list according to the regulations.
Hoa Binh province saw a significant rise in state budget revenue in the first two months of 2025, heard a meeting chaired by Vice Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee Quach Tat Liem.
Ha Thi Ha Chi, a 26-year-old graduate in law, has taken an unconventional path by returning to her hometown in Mai Chau district to establish the Tong Dau Cooperative, creating stable jobs for local women and bringing Thai ethnic brocade weaving to the global market.
As the Lunar New Year 2025 approached, pork prices surged, creating a profitable season for farmers in Tan Vinh commune, Luong Son district. Taking advantage of the rising demand, Can Minh Son, a farmer from Coi hamlet, sold over 30 pigs at 69,000 VND/kg, each weighing more than 100 kg. After deducting expenses, his family earned a profit of over 50 million VND.
