(HBO) - The Hoa Binh Women's Union presented the money to support the idea of winning the "Women and the future of green economy" creative contest for Mrs. Nguyen Thi Binh, Director of Dao Village Cooperative in Thong Nhat commune (Hoa Binh City) with a model of growing and processing citronella essential oil along the value chain to provide safe products for users, environmentally friendly.” This is one of the three ideas of Hoa Binh women that won the prize at the competition.
The leader of Hoa Binh
Women's Union gave money to support to Dao Village
Agricultural Cooperative.
With the support of
153.4 million VND, the cooperative will invest to buy equipment, build
workshops, print product labels, etc. Currently, the Dao Village Agricultural
Cooperative has produced products from slurry such as dishwashing liquid,
cleaning water...
Participating in the
model, members have the opportunity to access new knowledge through training
courses that organized by the Women's Union; participating in exhibitions,
promoting product introduction in many provinces and cities in the country.
Dao Village’s honey – a product certified with a 3-star OCOP (One Commune One Product) rating by Thong Nhat Agricultural Cooperative in Dao Village (Hoa Binh City) – is highly regarded by consumers for its quality, richness, and variety in packaging. The distinctively sweet taste of Dao Village’s honey leaves a lasting impression on anyone who has tried it.
In alignment with Project No. 07-DA/TU, issued by the Hoa Binh provincial Party Committee on November 1, 2021, Lac Thuy district has actively promoted investment and supported the sustainable development of its industrial and handicraft sectors during the 2021–2025 period. Alongside this, the district has remained committed to preserving and revitalising traditional craft villages.
Located in the northern part of Lac Thuy district, with a temperate climate and fertile soil, Phu Thanh commune has great potential and advantages in growing tea. The long-standing experience, combined with strict adherence to organic farming practices in the tea gardens, ensures that the dried tea products from Phu Thanh and Lac Thuy as a whole are sold out immediately upon production, providing a stable and prosperous life for the local people.
Amid efforts to streamline the administrative apparatus, Hoa Binh province has intensified measures to address challenges in land clearance, resettlement support, and infrastructure investment, aiming to speed up the progress of key projects.
Hoa Binh province has posted an unprecedented economic growth rate of 12.76% in the first quarter of 2025, marking its highest quarterly performance to date and positioning it as the second fastest-growing locality in the country, trailing only Bac Giang province.
Under current regulations, products in the One Commune – One Product (OCOP) programme that are rated three stars or higher must undergo re-evaluation every three months. However, in reality, some of these products fail to consistently meet the required standards, raising concerns about the sustainability of their OCOP certification. This underscores the urgent need for producers to enhance product quality and gradually develop their OCOP products into strong, marketable brands.
