The first shipment of sugarcane grown in Hoa Binh province exported to Germany
has a total quantity of 10 tonnes. The sugarcane was produced by Tung Duong
Agricultural and Forestry Service Cooperative, purchased and packed by Tien
Ngan Trading Investment Company, and exported by Fusa Fertiliser JSC. The German partner is Vinh Loi Group, which is owned by Vietnamese people in
Hamburg (Germany).
Before being transported to Germany, the sugarcane has
passed extremely strict quarantine requirements, ensuring the best quality
standards. The sugarcane is selected and undergone preliminary processing, then
cut into 35cm pieces and frozen. The packing of goods is carried out in
accordance with the required specifications, ensuring the EU's food safety
standards. The delivery and receipt are guaranteed to be done on time as requested by the
partner.
The batch of 10 tonnes of Hoa Binh sugarcane is
expected to arrive in Germany in 40 days. Additional 44 tonnes of sugarcane is
scheduled for export to Britain and Germany in December this year despite
facing difficulties in shipping and containers./.
According to data from the Hoa Binh Provincial Party Committee, the industrial production index for the first six months of 2025 is estimated to have increased by 20% compared to the same period last year. This marks the highest year-on-year growth rate for this period since 2020.
In the first six months of 2025, Hoa Binh province’s export turnover was estimated at 1.145 billion USD, marking an 18.11% increase compared to the same period in 2024. Import turnover was estimated at $ 804 million, a 17.15% increase, which helped the province maintain a positive trade balance.
The lives of the ethnic minority farmers in Tan Lac district have gradually improved thanks to the new directions in agricultural production. This is a testament to the collective strength fostered through the professional associations and groups implemented by various levels of the district’s Farmers’ Union.
With the motto the "product quality comes first,” after nearly one year of establishment and operation, Muong village’s Clean Food Agricultural and Commercial Cooperative, located in Cau Hamlet, Hung Son Commune (Kim Boi district), has launched reputable, high-quality agricultural products to the market that are well-received by consumers. The products such as Muong village’s pork sausage, salt-cured chicken, and salt-cured pork hocks have gradually carved out a place in the market and they are on the path to obtaining the OCOP certification.
In the past, the phrase "bumper harvest, rock-bottom prices" was a familiar refrain for Vietnamese farmers engaged in fragmented, small-scale agriculture. But today, a new spirit is emerging across rural areas of Hoa Binh province - one of collaboration, organisation, and collective economic models that provide a stable foundation for production.
Maintaining growing area codes and packing facility codes in accordance with regulations is a mandatory requirement for agricultural products to be eligible for export. Recently, the Department of Agriculture and Environment of Hoa Binh province has intensified technical supervision of designated farming areas and packing facilities to safeguard the "green passport" that enables its products to access international markets.
