Scientific-technological tasks at the provincial level
focus on urgent issues and requirements in reality. The most noteworthy in the
field of social sciences and humanities is the project on building the input
method editor of the Muong language in service of the preservation and
promotion of the Muong culture in Hoa Binh province. In the sphere of natural
sciences and technology, projects target the reasonable use and exploitation of
natural resources and environmental protection, such as the project on GIS
technology application in building e-maps managing irrigated areas in Cao Phong
and Luong Son districts. In education-training and public health care, there is
a project on studying chemical elements and evaluating biological activities of
compounds separated from Xa den (scientifically known as Celastrus hindsii Benth).
In agriculture, tasks aim to speed up the
scientific-technological application in producing livestock and plant varieties
that have good quality and are resistant to pestilent insects and suitable with
local ecology, looking towards the development of concentrated goods production
areas. The province has developed production areas of Cao Phong orange, chayote,
pomelo, Luong Son snake gourd, Son Thuy longan, hat doi (scientifically known
as Michelia tonkinensis) in Lac Son, and Tan Lac and Mai Chau garlic. The
province has also worked to build brand name for fish and shrimp of Hoa Binh
Lake.
Since 2013, the province has implemented nine projects
worth 87.9 billion VND sourced from scientific-technological development fund.

The Van Mai dam xanh (Bangana lemassoni) fish has long been famous for its unique and delicious flavour, earning a spot on the menus of many restaurants and attracting food connoisseurs. In recent years, residents in Van Mai commune, Mai Chau district, have expanded their fish farming areas and striven to build a strong reputation for their product. They are also working to establish it as an OCOP (One Commune, One Product) item to increase their income.
Outstanding rural industrial products of Hoa Binh province in 2024 were recently honoured and granted certificates, becoming a source of pride for producers and also a boost for local economic development. The honourees are all deeply imbued with the local cultural identity and boast considerable commercial potential, helping popularise the image of Hoa Binh to domestic and international consumers. This is also a solid stepping stone for rural industrial establishments to develop.
In the first 10 months of 2024, Hoa Binh city made significant progress in job creation and labour exports, sending 112 workers abroad through partnerships with authorised recruitment firms.
An award ceremony to announce the official certification for Mai Chau district’s Bangana lemassoni fish, a specialty of the locality because of its unique flavour, was held recently in the district.
