The time of planting watermelon is shorter than that of rice, so it is possible to turn round with continuous crop of vegetables, beans for a short time. Therefore, in addition to the income from watermelon, Mr. Lung's family earned more tens of millions of other incomes from other kinds of vegetables every year.

Compared with rice cultivation, the value of income in the same area after the conversion to grow vegetables has increased from 6 to 7 times, even though in some places, the income increased ten times. In 2010, the average income of the commune reached VND 6 million / person by 2017, it has been increasing 4.4 times, reaching VND 26.4 million / person.
