Mr. Bui Van Phuong, a militia soldier in Cao
Ram Commune (Luong Son), takes care of his family's goats.
In 2002, after graduation, Mr. Phuong found
that, the economy would not be improved with the farming on the garden and in
the field. With his desire to get rich in the homeland, in 2006, Phuong boldly
borrowed a loan to develop livestock growing. However, with limited borrowings
and less experience, he failed. His dream of enrichment was unfinished; Mr.
Phuong chose to go to work far away to live on. In 2011, Phuong came back and
continued to try on livestock development. Seeing that Sang Mountain behind his
house had great potential to develop goat rising, Mr. Phuong bought goat
breeding for rising. At first, the goats just grazed around the village, but
the grazing area is increasingly narrowed, so the goats went to the local
people’s garden and destroyed their vegetables. He was so concerned and
thoughtful about that. Then, he realized that the valley on the mountain was
the ideal pasture for goats. After that, he came up with the idea of building
a bridge for the goats to go across the mountain. More than 40 meters of stairs
built up made a breakthrough for him to grow goats. Up to now, Mr. Phuong's
family has maintained a group of 50 goats. Along with that, he converted 1.5
hectares of paddy rice to turmeric growing, combined with livestock and poultry
raising. As a result, every year, except for expenses, the economic model of
his family brings in stable income with an average of 150 million VND per year.
"While I was doing, I was learning and
actively looking for effective production and business models for learning
experiences, especially the models that militiamen have been developing
effectively with high economic efficiency, exploiting well the potential and
advantages of the local. From that, I could apply to the economic model of my
family".Mr. Phuong shared.
Not only doing good economics, Mr. Phuong is
also an example of militia soldiers, completing excellent training duties. Every
year, he actively participates in trainings, contests, workshops and
examinations organized by Commune Military Management Board. His achievements
are very impressive with 100% of the courses and the test items to be quite
good, as good as shooting, tactics, testing political awareness.
