(HBO)- Highland fairs in commune at the end of the year are exciting and busy. This is the center of the 5 highland communes of Tan Lac district, so every market people from different parts of the communes are always taking part. Rearranging the goods for the market, Ms. Bui Thi Nga living in Bac Son commune happily says: "In the past, there were all dirty land roads in these communes. It was very difficult hard to travel. Now there are asphalted roads and people travel to work by motorbike, they do not have to walk any more. People go straight to the market or upland field. Thanks to the roads, many families in my commune have escaped from poverty due to selling goods they have made.

Thanks to the convenient transportation, people in Nam Son commune (Tan Lac) bring tangerines favored by customers to Lung Van market to sell.


Back to the road to the upland communes such as Quyet Chien, Ngo Luong, Lung Van, Nam Son and Bac Son, people’s lives are prospering. Starting from the key crop of maize to reduce poverty, the people boldly restructured plants bringing some high-value plant varieties into production, typically chayote trees, sweet tangerines and purple garlic ones. Ms. Dinh Thi Quyet, the chairwoman of the Quyet Chien Safe Vegetables Cooperative says that the convenient roads have made it much easier for the people to consume vegetables. A lot of the households have expanded the area of ​​growing chayote and other vegetables. Now every day, there are three to four trucks carrying vegetables there to Hanoi and other provinces to consume.

In the past year, the State has upgraded and repaired narrow parody road sections, which are out of sight. As a result of this, the roads to the upland communes of Tan Lac district is smooth and have limited the danger. Thanks to the strengthening intensive farming methods and safe VietGAP production procedures, the planting area of ​​chayote in Quyet Chien commune has formed a sustainable agricultural value chain. Tan Lac chayote products are now consumed in big markets, reaching a chain of restaurants and supermarkets of agricultural products and foodstuffs in Hanoi and some other provinces and cities
