Recently, farmers’ unions at all levels in Hoa
Binh province have stepped up communications to encourage their members to
apply scientific and technological advances, switch from small-scale economic
models to large-scale and concentrated production ones, and develop different
business models. They have reformed activities; improved the quality and
effectiveness of services, counselling, and vocational training; assisted
farmers to boost production and business; and coordinated with relevant
agencies to guide the formation of crop and animal farming cooperatives and cooperative
groups.
Since the beginning of 2021, all-level farmers’
unions have worked with banks to lend more than 3.58 trillion VND (157 million
USD) to over 5,100 farming households.
They have proactively coordinated with relevant
departments, sectors, and enterprises to train their members in internet use,
clean agricultural production, and food safety. Member farmers have been
encouraged to adapt crop and livestock structures to market demand.
Thanks to a movement calling on local farmers to
emulate in production and business, a large number of exemplars have appeared.
Le Van Thach, Chairman of the provincial
Farmers’ Union, said thanks to effective conselling, vocational training, and
support activities, the number of profitable cooperative models in agricultural
production and business activities has been rising. Many households are running
large-scale production models that bring about annual income of 600 million -
1.2 billion VND and higher.
That has contributed to the shift of rural
labour and economic structures to promote mass production and social stability,
as well as to the enhancement of people’s trust in the Party, State, and
farmers’ unions’ leadership, he added.
