Chi Dao "doi” seed (Lac Son district) has received a three-star recognition of the province’s OCOP programme. Its package contains label, barcode and traceability code.

Muong Be is a long-time name of the land famous for "doi” seed – Chi Dao commune. Over the past 10 years, decade- and centenary-old "doi” trees situated next to wooden stilt houses have brought prosperity to people in the remote area.

Since the plant has gained public attention, local authorities and residents have been doing their best to promote the product and its brand, as well as help it reach markets nationwide. The establishment of a cooperative on "doi” seedling supply and agricultural services in Chi Dao commune was part of the efforts.

Progress has been made since the birth of the cooperative. It is able to retain quality of the local seed among those produced in other places. At the same time, members are advised not to opt for profit at the expense of quality by choosing a prompt but inaccurate processing method, such as boiling the seed for quicker drying process.

Notably, seedlings of Chi Dao commune have been known to customers across the country. Chi Dao "doi” trees are being cultivated in forests of many Central Highland provinces.

The recent recognition is expected to facilitate the development and value of Chi Dao "doi” tree. To seize the opportunities, locals need to take the initiative in production and improve quality product in the competition against other brands in a bid to protect their own staple.

"Doi” growers in the commune also hope to receive due attention and support from relevant agencies in terms of training, application of science-technology, and trade promotions./.
