(HBO) – In recent years, the local people in Kim Boi district have concentrated on economic developments towards forest production. Forest economic development brings realistic benefits for economy-society, protects watershed forests, protects environment, increases forest cover and creates jobs, ensures stable income and contributes to hunger eradication and poverty reduction for the local people.

The nursery of Mr. Quach Van Canh’s family at Ma hamlet, Cuoi Ha commune, providing the acacia seedlings has become a familiar address for many farmers inside and outside the commune.

 

Mr. Quach Van Canh at Ma hamlet, Cuoi Ha commune (Kim Boi district) tested the quality of acacia seedlings before exporting.

Before implementing the nursery model, Mr. Canh’s family mainly cultivated rice and corns but their productivity and economic efficiency were very low. It was realized that the movements of planting forest in the commune as well as in the district have developed strongly while the supply of seedlings was weak, and the farmers had to purchase seeds from other places for double price but the survival rate of trees was low. In 2013, he borrowed 20 million VND from the District Bank for Social Policies in order to invest in acacia nursery with the area of over 1000 m2. In the first year, Mr. Canh planted one kilo of Acacia auriculiformis and Acacia mangium. Because of the proper application of techniques and being hard working to monitor each tree, he got incredible earnings from over 300 thousand seedlings which have been sold out with the average price of 400 VND per tree. Excepting for all expenditures, the net profit was about 35 million VND. Perceiving the high economic efficiency from the acacia nursery, up to the present, his family has expanded the area by 2000 m2 as well as increased nearly 1 million trees per years. Apart from all expenditures, his family earns approximately 100 million VND annually. Because of the nursery, Mr. Canh’s family has currently had a stable life and his children have sufficient conditions to study. Not only pioneering in economic development and enriching legitimately, but Mr. Canh also created regular jobs for five workers in the hamlet with the average income of three million VND per person per month.
