4/25/2019 - 8:48:24 PM

Over the past years, the awareness and sense of responsibility of officials, Party members and residents in Ky Son district towards the new-style rural area building programme have improved considerably.

The "ca gai leo” (Solanum procumbens) farming and processing model in Phu Minh commune, Ky Son district, has generated high economic effects.

In 2018, the district mobilised about 24.1 billion VND (over 1 million USD) for the implementation of the national target programme on new-style rural area building. That included over 11.4 billion VND from the central budget, 10.56 billion VND from associated programmes’ funding, and 2.12 billion VND donated by local residents.

With that funding, communes in Ky Son have strived to meet the criteria for cultural, healthcare and educational infrastructure. Many facilities like the electricity network, roads, schools, clinics and cultural centres have been upgraded, giving a facelift to rural areas.

Residents have joined hands in cleaning up roads and dredging canals. They have also donated more than 14,180 sq.m. of land for building roads and other rural infrastructure facilities.

Meanwhile, local communes have successfully developed effective agricultural models like citrus tree, cucumber and cage fish farming ones.

Ky Son district has actively carried out the agricultural restructuring plan so as to boost the sector’s sustainable development. In particular, it has promoted production-distribution connectivity under value chains, attracted investment to rural areas, supported the growth of the farm and collective economy, and assisted farmers to access technical advances.

In 2019, the district chose three products under the "One commune, one product” programme to boost production, namely bee honey, cellophane noodles, and "dinh lang” (Polyscias fruticosa) wine.

As a result, improvements have been recorded in the new-style rural area building. While the material and spiritual lives of local residents have been improved, rural areas have gained a facelift. In 2018, the household poverty rate in Ky Son fell to 6.03 percent, and the average per capita income in its nine communes reached 32 million VND./.
