(HBO) – Hoa Binh produced around 950 tonnes of fish in February, including 130 tonnes from fishing and 830 tonnes from farming.
The province currently has about 2,700 hectares of ponds and
lakes for fish farming as well as 4,600 fish cages, 43 aquatic farms and
cooperatives. All districts and communes have been taking all steps, from
managing the water environment, raising fries, harvesting fish and preparing
ponds and lakes for the next crop.
The province’s fish output is estimated to exceed 2,600
tonnes in the first quarter of this year, including 375 tonnes from fishing and
about 2,250 from farming. About 6 million fries have also been raised to meet
demand of local farmers.
Hoa Binh will strengthen inspection to protect local aquatic
resources, particularly in Hoa Binh Reservoir and prevent destructive fishing
practices, such as blast fishing and cyanide fishing./.
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.
The steering committee for key projects of Hoa Binh province convened on May 14 to assess the progress of major ongoing developments
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.
