Ms. Thi Hanh Ha in Khang hamlet, Dich Giao commune (Tan Lac district) is
splitting Sachi grain in order to sell for enterprises.
Ms. Thi Lien Bui and her family are a
household growing the most Sachi plants at Khang hamlet with over 500 plants on
the area of 3000 m2. At that time, the trees allow farmers collect
leaves continuously, and their fruits could be harvested twice a year as well
as gain the income by 20 millions VND. In spite of the lasting drought and
cloudy winter all day in this year, the Sachi plants still grow very well.
Comparing with other crops, Sachi is believed to be easy to grow particularly
in that the families only need to apply fertilizer twice after one year of
plating. The plants are also less prone to pets as well as unnecessary to spray
pesticide. Because the output of Sachi is guaranteed to consume by Inca Vietnam
joint Stock Company, the farmers believe that Sachi will enhance their income.
According to Ms. Thi Hanh Ha, the head of
Khang hamlet said: "Last year, Sachi was planted in trial with the area of 1.2
hectares by 15 households. After one year of cultivation, the total revenue
gained by selling Sachi leaves (20 thousands VND / kg), and grains (30 thousand
VND / kg of unshelled one, 50 thousand VND / kg of peeled one) was over 80
millions VND. Moreover, the farmers could store about 0.5 to 0.6 tons of grain.
In the first year of growing, the plants only produced two harvests but they
achieved a higher economic efficiency than rice and corns did.
It is recognized the economic benefits that
Sachi brings, hence, Mrs. Thi Tham Dinh and many other households in Khang
hamlet would like to change to grow Sachi. She said: "Growing rice and corn
brings the unstable income while growing Sachi allows to be harvested all year
and its output has been consumed by many enterprises. However, the price of
Sachi is quite expensive (25,000 VND / tree) so we wish to receive the care of
the government and local authorities, and be supported to convert the
inefficient land into land planting Sachi”.
