(HBO) – Over the past years, the northern mountainous province of Hoa Binh has issued many documents on scientific-technological development. They include the Action Programme No. 40-Ctr/BCSD dated February 18, 2016 of the Party Committee of the provincial People’s Committee on the implementation of the resolution of the provincial Party Organisation Congress for 2015-2020, and the project on scientific-technological development for the 2016-2020 period, with an orientation towards 2030.

Scientific-technological tasks at the provincial level
focus on urgent issues and requirements in reality. The most noteworthy in the
field of social sciences and humanities is the project on building the input
method editor of the Muong language in service of the preservation and
promotion of the Muong culture in Hoa Binh province. In the sphere of natural
sciences and technology, projects target the reasonable use and exploitation of
natural resources and environmental protection, such as the project on GIS
technology application in building e-maps managing irrigated areas in Cao Phong
and Luong Son districts. In education-training and public health care, there is
a project on studying chemical elements and evaluating biological activities of
compounds separated from Xa den (scientifically known as Celastrus hindsii Benth).
In agriculture, tasks aim to speed up the
scientific-technological application in producing livestock and plant varieties
that have good quality and are resistant to pestilent insects and suitable with
local ecology, looking towards the development of concentrated goods production
areas. The province has developed production areas of Cao Phong orange, chayote,
pomelo, Luong Son snake gourd, Son Thuy longan, hat doi (scientifically known
as Michelia tonkinensis) in Lac Son, and Tan Lac and Mai Chau garlic. The
province has also worked to build brand name for fish and shrimp of Hoa Binh
Lake.
Since 2013, the province has implemented nine projects
worth 87.9 billion VND sourced from scientific-technological development fund.
Once a mountainous province facing many challenges, Hoa Binh has, after more than a decade of implementing the national target programme on new-style rural area development, emerged as a bright spot in Vietnam’s northern midland and mountainous region. In the first quarter of 2025, the province recorded positive results, paving the way for Hoa Binh to enter a phase of accelerated growth with a proactive and confident mindset.
Hoa Binh province is steadily advancing its agricultural sector through the adoption of high-tech solutions, seen as a sustainable path for long-term development.

A delegation of Hoa Binh province has attended the "Meet Korea 2025" event, recently held by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Embassy of the Republic of Korea (RoK) in Vietnam, the Korea Trade-Investment Promotion Agency, and the People's Committee of Hung Yen province.
Hoa Binh province joined Vietnam’s national "One Commune, One Product” (OCOP) programme in 2019, not simply as a mountainous region following central policy, but with a clear vision to revive the cultural and agricultural values in its villages and crops.
From just 16 certified products in its inaugural year to 158 by early 2025, the One Commune One Product (OCOP) programme in Hoa Binh province has followed a steady and strategic path. But beyond the numbers, it has reawakened local heritage, turning oranges, bamboo shoots, brocade, and herbal remedies into branded, market-ready goods - and, more profoundly, transformed how local communities value and present their own cultural identity.
