hatching machine
In 2004, the new start-up path was officially
opened after he was invited by the Phu Thanh Farmers Association to attend a
training course on citrus development model. He boldly borrowed 2 hectares of
land from the bank, bought yellow oranges and Dien grapefruit for planting.
Four years later, when the oranges, grapefruit were developed and harvested, he
switched to raising chickens with the initial number from 100 to 500 chickens
and increased from 1,000 to 3,000 chickens/ litter.
His family boldly raised 2,000 laying hens,
and bought 4 hatching machines with a capacity of 12,000 pesos per machine. At
that time, the family provided about 30,000 breeding chickens and 20 - 30 tons
of commercial chicken to the market. Three years ago, when the farming economy
tended to develop, he decided to expand the scale of the farm, investing in
building a super lean pork farm with a capacity of 300 pigs per litter. Then,
he built three other porker farms with the capacity of 100 - 200 pigs per
litter. The total porkers in four farms ranged from 600 to 800 pigs.
Since 2012 up to now, Nguyen Duy Lanh's model
of breeding farms combined with animal husbandry has achieved continuous
successes. In 2012, he achieved the total revenue of 2 billion VND, except for
expenses of 1.5 billion VND, he had a profit of 500 million VND. In 2013, the
total revenue was 2.5 billion VND, after deducting the cost of 1.8 billion VND,
he gained a profit of 700 million VND. In 2014, the total revenue was 3.2 billion
VND, except for the cost of 2.6 billion VND, the profit reached at 600 million
VND. In 2017, the total revenue was nearly 10 billion VND but due to losses in
investment in pig production, except for
expenses, profits remained at 600 million VND. In the first months of this
year, he has just exported over 30 tonnes of pigs at the price of 42,000 VND/
kg, the increasing market price helped him partly offset the loss of pig
production last year.
In the first quarter of 2024, the credit institutions in the province have actively deployed the legal documents of the State and the State Bank relating to currency, credit and interest rates. At the same time, they have promoted the capital mobilization, focusing on the solutions to expand the credit investment along with strengthening the credit quality management, lending to priority programs to promptly meet the capital needs for export - business and consumer demand during Tet in 2024.
Outside the key economic region of Hoa Binh, yet Lac Son district has utilised its potential and strengths regarding labour, land, and transportation connectivity to attract investment to the locality, contributing to promoting socio-economic development.
In a move to expedite the execution and disbursement of the 2024 capital plan for ODA projects, aiming for a disbursement rate of over 90% of the allocated funding, the Hoa Binh People's Committee issued Document No. 483/UBND-KTN on April 3, 2024, regarding such efforts.
Nguyen Van Thap from Kim Duc hamlet, Vinh Tien commune, Kim Boi district, has built the brand of Hoa Qua Son for local fruits. His efforts have brought about income for his family and generated job opportunities for locals, helping hundreds of households escape from poverty.
The Hoa Binh administration was entrusted by the Prime Minister with a budget of 3.43 trillion VND (142.91 million USD) for investment in 2024. The provincial People's Council approved nearly 3.76 trillion VND, which has been meticulously allocated to projects, achieving 100% of the assigned capital plan.
Hoa Binh province has mobilised all resources to propel local agricultural products to make inroads into foreign markets, towards lifting the export turnover of key agricultural products to 137.8 million USD by 2030, accounting for 3.4% of the locality’s total export value of goods.
The locality aims to export farm produce to the US, the European Union, the UK, China, Japan, and the Republic of Korea.
