and make changes in production methods of farmers and businesses in the
district, thereby raising value of goods and people’s income.

development office Vu Manh Thang said the district has devised measures to
develop OCOP products in line with local reality, provided consultations on the
establishment of cooperatives, small- and medium-sized enterprises from groups
of household businesses.
Cooperatives joining the programme may
improve and fine-tune production and operation systems. Furthermore,
conferences and workshops to share experience between units will be arranged to
disseminate tasks in the implementation of the OCOP programme in association
with the one on building new-style rural areas.
This year, three products of the
district have signed up for the OCOP programme. They are community-based
tourism model in Ngoi village of Ngoi Hoa commune, Tan Dong pomelo grown by Tan
Dong cooperative in Dong Lai commune, and Phu Cuong sweet potato by Luong Phu agricultural
