(HBĐT) - Returning to Thanh Hoi commune, Tan Lac district in mid-August, we saw great changes in the appearance of the local rural areas and the living standards of local residents. Tan Huong hamlet, adjacent to National Highway 12B, has become a model residential area. Local cooperatives have exported pomelos to the European market.



Red-fleshed pomelos from Thanh Hoi commune, Tan Lac district, were exported to the UK in 2022.


Duong Tat Tinh, an experienced pomelo farmer, said the residents of Tan Huong hamlet have gained a good level of expertise in cultivating pomelo. Currently, many households have significant changed their mindset and continued renovating pomelo cultivation methods, aiming for exports and meeting the increasingly high market demand. This year, Tinh's pomelo orchard continues to yield quality fruits that meet safe production standards. Local households also engage in animal raising, trading and services, leading to an overall improvement in their living conditions.

Thanh Hoi has a large acreage and a big population. The commune used to perform well in rural transport development and restructuring of crops and animals, particularly focusing on raising cattle and developing red-fleshed and green-skinned pomelos. In recent years, the communal Party organisation has effectively built the Party and political system, upheld the role of officials and Party members in leading, directing, and engaging locals in rural development.

After three years of implementing the Resolution adopted by the 27th Party Congress of the commune, 9 out of 18 targets have been achieved and exceeded while 9 out of 18 targets met schedule. The local leaders oversaw the conversion of crops on 22 ha of land. The commune now has 310ha of citrus growing area. The commune continues to develop models of commercial cattle farming and step up forest-based economic growth.

The communal Party organisation has directed and effectively pooled resources to develop infrastructure, build new-style rural areas, maintain two model residential areas, and six model gardens in Tan Huong and Nen 2 hamlets. It also continues with the construction of another model residential area in Tan Tien hamlet. Alongside these efforts, the commune is focusing on cultural and social affairs, maintaining national standard level 1 for the local kindergarten. The Thanh Hoi primary and secondary school has been recognised as meeting national standard level 1. At present, the average annual per capita income of the commune is 58 million VND (2,400 USD), and the rate of poor households is around 6.2%.
