(HBO) - Taking us to see the model, Ms. Nguyen Thi Huong, a supporting agricultural and forestry staff of Mong Hoa commune (Ky Son district) said: The commune has 12 hamlets, most of the hamlets are close to the hill so the model of raising bees for honey was quite suitable for practical conditions.

Ms. Nguyen Thi Thuy’s family, Vanh hamlet, Mong Hoa commune (Ky Son) were bee circulated by poor households in the project to replicate the model of reducing poverty.

Mr. Nguyen Van Ha, Bai Sau hamlet confided: My family has 6 people with only 1.300 m2 of rice fields and small area of sugarcane plantation. In 2017, being selected to participate in the model of raising bees for honey, I was very happy. The family was supported 8 bee tanks. At this time, the family has collected more than 60 liters of honey; the average selling price was 200,000 VND / liter, earning over 12 million VND. At present, the family has developed 3 herds and transferred one herd for the poor household of Mr. Nguyen Van Binh in Vay village. Thanks to participating in the model, in 2017, my family totally escaped from poverty.

In Vanh village, Ms. Nguyen Thi Thuy's family is a poor household of the commune. Ms. Thuy's family had only 500 m2 of rice fields, 300 m2 of vegetable fields. She and her husband’s working in the field is not enough to raise two children to study. More than a month ago, the family has been involved in the model of raising bee for honey since 2017and was transferred 2 bee tanks. Ms. Thuy said: Being shared the new way by the poor, near poor families will be the motivation to help my families increase our income and gradually stabilize our lives.

The project for replication of the poverty reduction model by "raising bees for honey" in Mong Hoa commune is supported by the National Targeted Program for Sustainable Poverty Reduction in 2017. In October 2017, the project was implemented in the area with 45 poor and near poor households to participate. Each household is provided with 6 bee tanks and 1 million VND of supplies and facilities. The participating households had to invest in the reciprocal bee tanks. In addition, when participating in the model, the local people are required to develop rotational bees for poor households, near poor households in the area. After 3 months of implementation, bees began to turn honey. In the crops of Logan and litchi blossom, some households get less than 7 liters, some with 12 liters of honey. The current price in the market is stable at 200,000 VND / liter. Up to now, the whole commune has developed more 15 households with the circulation of bees.

The effectiveness of professional models of association and group in Tan Lac district

The lives of the ethnic minority farmers in Tan Lac district have gradually improved thanks to the new directions in agricultural production. This is a testament to the collective strength fostered through the professional associations and groups implemented by various levels of the district’s Farmers’ Union.

Building the brand of Muong village clean food

With the motto the "product quality comes first,” after nearly one year of establishment and operation, Muong village’s Clean Food Agricultural and Commercial Cooperative, located in Cau Hamlet, Hung Son Commune (Kim Boi district), has launched reputable, high-quality agricultural products to the market that are well-received by consumers. The products such as Muong village’s pork sausage, salt-cured chicken, and salt-cured pork hocks have gradually carved out a place in the market and they are on the path to obtaining the OCOP certification.

Hoa Binh ethnic farmers join forces through collective economic models

In the past, the phrase "bumper harvest, rock-bottom prices" was a familiar refrain for Vietnamese farmers engaged in fragmented, small-scale agriculture. But today, a new spirit is emerging across rural areas of Hoa Binh province - one of collaboration, organisation, and collective economic models that provide a stable foundation for production.

Maintaining farming area codes: Key to bringing Hoa Binh farm produce to global market

Maintaining growing area codes and packing facility codes in accordance with regulations is a mandatory requirement for agricultural products to be eligible for export. Recently, the Department of Agriculture and Environment of Hoa Binh province has intensified technical supervision of designated farming areas and packing facilities to safeguard the "green passport" that enables its products to access international markets.
