The annual afforestation area of the district is from 850 to 900 hectares in the direction of intensive farming with the combination of developing non-timber products, contributing to the transformation of crop structure.

The project on developing bamboo shoots in the district in the 2022 - 2025 period is expected to create jobs and improve income for farmers while increasing production value and contributing to the creation of a facelift for the locality’s economy.

 Kim Boi joint Stock Company in Da Hang Doi town, Lac Thuy district, specialsies in purchasing and processing bamboo shoots.

The bamboo shoot farming area in the district by the end of 2021 was 155 hectares. In fact, the annual production of bamboo shoots accounts for about 30% of the district’s total bamboo shoot production.

The district hasa relatively large area of rocky forest land with many valleys and hillfoots which are suitable for bamboo shoot development. However, the trade has not fully tapped its potential as they are mainly grown on a small scale without proper investment and intensive farming.

The locality has set a target to increase the area of bamboo shoot growing to 235 hectares by 2025.

Hoang Thu Hang, Deputy Chairwoman of the district’s People Committee, said the implementation of the project will contribute to raising the production capacity for local farmers, creating a concentrated raw material area while improving the value of the forest, creating jobs, raising people's incomes for the locals, and protecting the ecological environment while attracting businesses to expand investment in processing, product circulation and sales of bamboo shoots.

Lac Thuy has also directed localities to study types of soil to ensure concentrated planting areas in an attempt to facilitate the process of management and production organisation.

The district has coordinated with enterprises in various steps from production to harvesting, processing, preserving and purchasing products to enhance value and build brands for bamboo products./.
