The implementation of the national target programme on new-style rural development for the 2021–2025 period in Hoa Binh has so far achieved significant progress, with 110 communes fulfilling Criterion No. 13 on production organisation and rural economic development, accounting for 85.3% of the province’s total.
Through linked production
and distribution chains, traditional brocade weaving products from Hang Kia and
Pa Co communes in Mai Chau district are sold well, raising local people's incomes.
Mai Chau district has excelled in meeting
Criterion No. 13, with its all 15 communes achieving the standard. This success
is partially attributed to local efforts to develop e-commerce systems, which
create favourable conditions for businesses, cooperatives, and producers to
join production-consumption linkages, facilitating goods circulation and
production. Related initiatives have initially led to the development of
websites and QR codes by businesses and cooperatives, financial support from
the district for those adopting scientific and technological advancements in
production and marketing, and the introduction of high-quality local products
to supermarket chains and e-commerce platforms.
Localities across the province are focusing on
implementing Criterion No. 13 and Component No. 3 of the national target
programme, with Hoa Binh further prioritising agricultural restructuring and
promoting the "One Commune, One Product" (OCOP) programme.
It is also an increasing number of local
economic models involving production and product consumption linkages.
According to the local rural development sub-department, these models have
optimised resource utilisation, improved economic efficiency, and boosted
incomes for local residents, while paving the way for sustainable agricultural
growth.
Currently, the province boasts 158 OCOP products
with 3-star and 4-star ratings. The diversification of distribution channels,
particularly the development of e-commerce, has met market demands, enabling
localities to expand production, enhance concentrated material zones, and
strengthen the agricultural sector. These efforts align with the broader goal
of agricultural restructuring.
In the time to come, the province plans to
intensify the harmonious implementation of production and rural economic
development solutions, aiming to meet and surpass the key targets set by the
national target programme.

Beyond its reputation as the river of light, the Da river has emerged as a vibrant area for fish and shrimp production. Local authorities and residents are aspiring to build a robust fishery industry, and their hope can be seen in the organisation of the second Da river fish and shrimp festival.
