Van Cuong (centre) shares experience in cultivating citrus trees with young
people from Laos.
Cuong said in the past, his family farmed sugar
cane and some food crops but earnings from them were limited and unstable.
After receiving training in agriculture, he returned to his hometown to develop
citrus trees which are also a trademark of Hoa Binh province.
Basing on what he has learnt at university and
the experience of other orange farming models, Cuong and his family borrowed
100 million VND (over 4,300 USD) from the Vietnam Bank for Agriculture and
Rural Development to invest in a store selling agricultural materials. Each
year, the store sells more than 700 tonnes of fertiliser, pesticide, and rice
and maize varieties, gaining over 4 billion VND in revenue and some 400 million
VND in profit.
Cuong has also taken part in training courses on
citrus tree cultivation and learned experience from effective models so as to
develop orange farming.
With 0.5ha of yellow-flesh orange trees in 2012,
he earned more than 180 million VND. The income from the orange garden increased
to 300 million – 400 million VND in 2013 – 2014. Apart from expanding the
yellow-flesh orange area to 2ha, Cuong also grew "canh” orange on 3,000 sq.m. of
land.
The 2016 – 2018 period is considered a success
in orange farming for his family. Since 2018, they have harvested about 10
tonnes of "canh” orange and 15 tonnes of yellow-flesh orange. The revenue in
2019 is expected at 800 million VND.
In particular, Cuong and his family have also
contributed to the new-style rural area building. They have donated 1,000 sq.m.
of land to the construction of rural roads and directly joined hands in
building public facilities. Cuong have also actively persuaded other locals to
donate land to make space for road construction when necessary. As a result,
the new-style countryside building movement in Chang Ngoai hamlet has received
strong support from residents and become highly effective.
With the achievements he had obtained, the
district and provincial committees of the Ho Chi Minh Communist Youth Union
rewarded Cuong and chose him as a delegate to a national gathering of 500
exemplary young Party members in studying and following President Ho Chi Minh’s
teachings. The event was held by the Central Committee of the Ho Chi Minh
Communist Youth Union to mark 50 years of implementing the late leader’s
testament./.
Seven years after the 12th Party Central Committee’s Resolution, Tan Lac district has seen considerable progresses.
The Standing Board of the Hoa Binh provincial Party Committee has held a conference to announce decisions regarding the apparatus restructuring of the province’s political system and personnel affairs.
Following the results of the military enlistment examination for 2025, Lac Son district has seen 100 young men and women volunteering to enlist in the military. Among these recruits, there are several families where two siblings have both written voluntary enlistment letters, eager to undertake the sacred task of protecting the nation.
As the Party Organisation and people of Hoa Binh province welcome the arrival of spring, they take pride in the remarkable achievements obtained under the leadership of the Communist Party of Vietnam (CPV), which turns 95 this spring. With a shared determination to build a prosperous future, they embrace ambitious aspirations for national development, joining hands with the whole country to prepare to enter a new era-one of national progress and advancement.
In 2023, the relic site where President Ho Chi Minh visited the Chi Hoa Production Group in Lam Son commune, Luong Son district of Hoa Binh province, was officially recognised as a provincial-level revolutionary historical site. Each year, it draws numerous visitors from across Vietnam and abroad, becoming a "red address" for educating young generations on the nation's revolutionary traditions.
According to the Party Charter, Party members who have been active in the revolution for a long time, and have maintained their Party membership for 30 years and more, will be awarded the Party badge. This is a noble reward, not only a source of pride and excitement for the Party members themselves and their families, but also a source of pride for the Party organisation that has such outstanding members who are shining examples for everyone to learn from and follow.
