local farmers.
Over the last five years, the
provincial People’s Committee has directed relevant authorities to adopt many
policies to support agricultural production and distribution of key farming
products, particularly citrus fruits, clean vegetables and fish of Hoa Binh
Reservoir.
Greater attention has been
paid to popularising high-yield and high-quality crop varieties to add more
values to local agricultural and forestry products. The province has
successfully developed new high-yield and pest-resistant paddy rice and maize,
among others, and piloted the cultivation of new herbal plants like sacha inchi
and new citrus fruits.
It has also exerted more
efforts to promote its products by making them available on major trading
floors, in order to not only boost sale but also avoid oversupply.
Additionally, it has set up provincial and district centres for promoting and
distributing farming products right after harvest.
A total of 3.4 billion VND
has been invested to help distribute more than 10,000 tonnes of agricultural
products to markets outside the province. The province has diversified
distributing methods in close association with tourism./.
