Lac Thuy district made a breakthrough in the land redistribution work during 2020-2023 to develop large-scale fields, creating favourable conditions for businesses, cooperatives, and other economic sectors to invest in the production of agricultural commodities, and helping improve productivity and income for farmers.
Machines have been used to harvest crops in An Binh commune, Lac Thuy district.
An Binh commune has been a bright spot in the land redistribution scheme, with 381 hectares of land redistributed during 2019-2023, or 42.2% of the commune’s total areas designated for agricultural production, surpassing its set target. The commune has also been paying due attention to building rural road and irrigational works.
Chairman of the communal People’s Committee Quach Cong Muoi said the scheme has helped raise public awareness of the new-style rural building as it has encouraged them to donate land and money to develop technical infrastructure for production.
By the end of 2023, the district had redistributed 620 hectares of land, on which local farmers cultivate high-yield and quality plants under good agricultural practices (GAP), and with advanced techniques. The farmers said thanks to the reorganisation of production, their earning from a hectare of crop has risen 29%.
Vice Chairwoman of the district People’s Committee Hoang Thi Thu Hang said the district is striving to redistribute 1,020 hectares of land by 2025, and will step up communications work to engage more locals in the scheme.
Lac Thuy will continue developing agricultural production in value chain, and supporting production in accordance with specific standards, creating motives to accelerate the land distribution work, she added.
Aside from engaging in agricultural sector, there still some non-agricultural occupations that are suitable for women, especially ethnic minority women in rural areas. Based on the demand of learners, agencies and units in Yen Thuy district have implemented vocational training programmes that associate with employment opportunities and meet demand of labour market.
Over recent years, the People's Committee of Lac Son district has implemented various policies to support vocational training in traditional industry cooperatives, especially in ethnic minority areas. As a result, many households have get rid of poverty. Vocational training and startup support projects have also helped create numerous new jobs, increase income for workers, improve living conditions, and create conditions for sustainable development in the ethnic minority areas of the district.
A collective labour agreement (CLA) is a negotiated document between employees and employers that outlines agreed-upon working conditions, achieved through collective bargaining. CLA is considered a key solution to minimising and resolving conflicts within businesses, fostering harmonious, stable, and progressive labour relations, which in turn help businesses thrive and ensure stable, higher incomes for workers.
With a determination to start the construction of the Hoa Binh-Moc Chau expressway’s section crossing Hoa Binh before September 2, the Party Committees and administrations at all levels of Da Bac district have focused on site clearance to hand over the clean site to the project as scheduled.
Hoa Binh province’s public administrative service centre has implemented the "people and business-centred administration” model since 2018. It has been equipped with modern equipment, including an automatic ticketing system, surveillance cameras, computers, scanners, and software so that administrative procedures have been settled and results returned in a timely manner.
Over the years, Lac Thuy district has paid great attention to personnel development by employing many people from ethnic minority groups to work as public servants and creating optimal conditions for intellectuals to promote their talents.
