(HBO) – Based on the actual demand in the area, Tu Ly commune (Da Bac) has implemented the model of safe vegetable production in 2016 with the total area of 3.1 hectares. Initially, the model was only processed in two hamlets of Dong Tranh and Kim Ly with 38 households involved.


The household of Mr. Ly Van Phuc in Kim Ly hamlet, Tu Ly commune (Da Bac district) has earned over 30 million VND per crop by the safe vegetable cultivation.

The model has been implemented for two years, now the area of cultivation expanded to 5 hectares with 75 households involved. After four crops, most of the farmers have become mastered with the techniques of cultivation.

After harvesting, all products were transported to the central market in the area for consumption. Because of being produced with the safe process, the price is always stable, the number of goods meets the demands of customers, and there is no excess. At the moment, the value of specialized cultivation is ranged from 150 to 200 million VND per hectare. Particularly, the highest one was the recent cucumber crop in which the value of specialized cultivation reached to 300 million VND per hectare.

Mr. Ly Van Phuc in Kim Ly hamlet, Tu Ly commune, is one of the households participating in the model of safe vegetable production, said: "My family’s area of vegetable is over 2000 m². We always observe the procedure in production, and because vegetables do best in soil, most of crops are bumper. In the recent vegetable crop, my family attained net profits (after minus total expenditures) by over 30 million VND. If the weather is favorable and there is no damage due to natural disasters, the production of safe vegetable will be the potential direction of economics development which can help the local people out of poverty.

In May of 2018, Tu Ly Village Service Agricultural Cooperative was established with the role of promoting the understanding of the market and the chains of product sales. Besides, the commune requested the Division of Agriculture and Rural Development of District People’s Committee to issue Food Safety Certificate in order to ensure the output of local vegetable products as well as contribute to the increase in the production and meet the needs of consumers. By the support of 500 million VND, the commune plans to expand the area of 2 hectares for safe vegetable production in this year.
