(HBO) - The agricultural production value of Hoa Binh province is estimated to surpass 2.2 trillion VND (93.5 million USD) in the first quarter of 2020, a year-on-year increase of 3.5 precent.
According to the provincial Department of Agricultural and
Rural Development, the total production value of the agricultural sector is
1.84 trillion VND, the forestry sector 304 billion VND, and the fisheries
sector 64 billion VND, up 3.3 percent, 4.5 percent and 6 percent, respectively.
Products reporting impressive growth rates
include fresh sugarcane with 6.3 percent, orange V2 4.3 percent, Canh orange
3.1 percent, poultry 10.1 percent, and wood and forest products 5.6 percent.
Currently, the whole province has 2.7 hectares
of ponds, small lakes and reservoirs; 4,600 fish cages; and 43 farms and
aquaculture cooperatives. The total output of fish is estimated at 2,626
tonnes, of which 375 tonnes are caught from the nature. The locality's breeding
facilities produced 6 million fingerlings of all kinds to serve local demand.
The local aquaculture facilities are actively taking measures to manage farming
environment and enrich ponds and lakes for the next farming season. Inspections
have been stepped up to protect the aquatic resources by minimising the
exploitation of aquatic products by explosives, electric shock and poisons./.
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.
