Mr. Bach said: "I was born at Ky Son district in 1999 before going to Cao Phong for business. As a worker of Cao Phong Farm, I and my family started to grown orange trees in 2000. At that time, the price of orange was only from 3 to 5 thousand VND per kg, hence, the profits was insignificant”.

In 2012, the family of Mr. Bui Van Bach planted orange on the area of 10 hectares, and the area has currently increased to 17 hectares. From March of 2014, his family participated in an orange planting program following the VietGap standard and conformed to the instruction of the program such as fertilizing, watering and applying proper pesticides at the right time as well as the right time of safe separation, and having a tidy and clean store and clear records.

Afterward, the family could buy a car and build a new spacious house with full facilities.

Moreover, he always created favorable conditions and helped some households to grow citrus.

In 2016, Mr. Bach and some orange farmer established Cao Phong Planting Orange Association. It had a role to popularize gardening techniques and caring guide as well as explore the marker for the products of Cao Phong orange. The association had elected the Executive Board and the Executive Committee which operated on the base of the Association’s regulations in order to put it into an organized operation. As a consequence, the Association’s products of orange usually met the demand of market and were well-known by other provinces. In addition to showing good at business, Mr. Bach is always enthusiastic and supporting the movements launched by the government in the residential area, for example of donating 10 million VND to construct cultural house, buy new equipment and create funds for merit people.
