the production plans. In this crop, there are 10,500 hectares in the district,
3,500 hectares of which are rice, the rest are the other crops and 850 hectares
of forest are planted. The district has cultivated 500 hectares of rice so far.
One hundred hectares have been converted to plant trees of higher economic
value such as the corn, the purple sugarcane, the pumpkin, the lagenaria
siceraria for seeds. The water resources are generally more secure than those
in 2018. The prevention and control of epidemics is paid much more attention.

hectares. The management of livestock and poultry herds, forestry development,
the forest protection are being taken care of. There have been no forest fires
up till now. However, the consumption of the key products such as sugarcanes,
oranges, tangerines, Da river fishes depends on the market. The production
