(HBO) – Authorities and people in Kim Boi district have been making efforts to meet the criteria of new-style rural areas.
Farmers in Bo township, Kim Boi district, use machines to improve the efficiency of agricultural production.
Public awareness of building new-style rural areas is increasingly improved, especially in production-consumption linkage, science and technology application, environmental protection, rural landscape improvement, and traditional cultural preservation. As a result, the rural areas’ look gradually changes, production develops, and people's lives constantly improve. In the first nine months of 2023, the district mobilised more than 753 billion VND ( 30.66 million USD) to build new-style rural areas, of which the community’s contribution accounted for 4.1%.
The district has been implementing specific solutions to develop production and increase people's income. The whole district has over 210 ha of production applying VietGAP standards. It is maintaining and developing models and high-quality products such as orange, grapefruit, dragon fruit, and vegetables.
Each commune has a key product such as winter melon and cucumber in Nam Thuong, Kim Lap, Sao Bay, Du Sang; potato in Vinh Dong; citrus fruit in Tu Son, Kim Lap, Vinh Tien, My Hoa; and medicinal plants in Hung Son. The district has also promoted production linkage models and now it has 30 agricultural cooperatives and 17 livestock farms.
By the end of September 2023, on average, each commune in the district met 13.6 criteria. Dinh Tat Thang, head of the district’s Department of Agriculture and Rural Development, said that despite of difficulties remaining, the district targets that by the end of 2023, communes in the whole district will meet 14 criteria of new-style rural areas on average. The district also targets to have one new-style rural residential model, two farming models and two new products meeting the requirements of the One Commune – One Product (OCOP) programme. The district is focusing on mobilising resources to improve the infrastructure system, production and people's lives.
Ngoc Luong commune in Yen Thuy district is striving to reach the finish line in advanced new-style rural area building in 2024. By promoting the implementation of solutions, the commune has to date completed necessary criteria set for advanced new-style rural communes for the 2021 – 2025 period.
