The application of high technology in agricultural development is proving to be a key approach to enhancing production efficiency and reducing challenges for the sector. Therefore, localities in Hoa Binh province continue to develop hi-tech agricultural models and smart farming practices to gradually establish concentrated production areas, creating large-scale and high-quality commercial products.


 V-ORGANIC organic agricultural cooperative in Quyet Chien commune (Tan Lac) plants vegetables in accordance with organic standards, using bio-fertilisers during the crop care process.

 

With a total land area of 8 hectares, V-ORGANIC organic agricultural cooperative in Quyet Chien commune (Tan Lac) has invested in an automatic sprinkler irrigation system to plant various organic vegetables safely. All processes from soil preparation, planting, care, and harvesting are closely supervised by technical staff. All members and labourers are trained in safe production procedures and provided with complete personal protective equipment. 

Can Thi Thuy Trang, Chairwoman of the Board of the cooperative, stated that by strictly adhering to safety requirements and standards, the cooperative’s vegetables have high micronutrient content, and an average yield of 60 tonnes per hectare. As a result, 100% of the products are sold at stable prices through contracts with the cooperative in Hanoi. 

To date, approximately 150 businesses, cooperatives, cooperative groups, and households have applied high technology and been certified with VietGAP, GlobalGAP, and organic standards for crops, livestock, and aquaculture, covering a total area of about 2,300 hectares for crop production, over 200,000 cubic metres for aquaculture, and 1,600 tonnes of meat products annually. The province has around 120 livestock and poultry farms, and four facilities applying new technologies in preservation and processing. 

There are currently about 80 enterprises, cooperatives, and agricultural, forestry, and fishery production and trading establishments participating in the product traceability system, with 400 products having traceability stamps and being promoted on the website hb.check.net.vn. The number of units installing camera systems with internet connection, and setting up websites to promote their products is increasing. 

In addition, to reduce labour, increase productivity and product quality, and reduce input material costs, localities have expanded the application of water-saving irrigation technology, biotechnology in production and tissue culture technology; and the use of biological plant protection products in production.
