To continue improving the quality of local farm produce, farmers’ income, and building farm produce trademarks with high economic value, the district defines that the standardisation of OCOP products must pay attention to quality and high efficiency, turning them into strong local brands.

To achieve the set goals, since the beginning of this year, Luong Son district has launched training courses on building and carrying out business plans, making dossiers to rate district and provincial level products. For fresh food, it instructed farmers how to receive certificates for production meeting safety standards, package and label products, apply for traceability stamps, product codes and barcodes, and trademarks.
