Ms. Ha Thi Hanh, the Head of Khang Hamlet, Dich Giao commune (Tan Lac) is introducing to the leaders of Dich Giao commune on Sachi planting model.

 

As she researched, she found that this model can be deployed appropriately in the hamlet. However, it is not easy to develop models in the hamlet. Due to the failure of the previous models, and once participating in the Sachi plantation model, the Company only provides technical support, the local people have to invest all the seed, capital, scaffolds, manning, and fertilizer. Each plant only has the price of 25,000 VND, but the materials for building scaffolds on the pilot area must be invested up to a hundred million VND.

In order to mobilize farmers to participate in the model, Ms. Hanh showed her prestige to ensure them "not to worry about the product output" as the key thing to encourage the households to participate. Ms. Hand pioneered to plant on 1,000 m2 of her family land. In the whole hamlet, there are 14 families participating in the pilot of planting Sachi plants on an area of 1.2 hectares. The model began deployment in April, 2017. During the implementation, Ms. Hanh felt wondered as "sitting on the fire". With the persistence of Ms. Hanh, the harvesting day has come. Inca Vietnam joint Stock Company appointed its staff directly to the place to buy products for Sachi growers. After the initial accounting, there were 0,1 – 0,13 tons of fruit harvested on an average area of 1,000 m2. Each hectare yielded more than 1 ton of fruit because there were no machine separators in the hamlet. Each hectare brought the income of over 120 million VND.

According to Ms. Hanh, through piloting, Sachi trees fit the soil of the hamlet. It is not difficult to grow Sachi plants, just taking good care of the trees for many fruits and good green leaves. Sachi plant is considered as a multi-purpose plant. All the parts of this plant, from seed, branch and leaf, can be used for processing food, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals. Currently, the Sachi plants of the hamlet has been collected and purchased twice by the company. The statistics of the participating households show that planting Sachi trees brings the income 2-3 times higher than growing maize. Through the practical effect from the pilot model, many households in the hamlet registered to participate. This year, the District Board of Agriculture and Rural Development has supported seeds, fertilizer and materials to expand 2 hectares of Sachi trees in the hamlet.
