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.
The provincial Department of Agriculture and Rural Development on November 20 coordinated with Hai Dang Group Hoa Binh Seafood Company Limited to release 1.5 tonnes of fries into Hoa Binh Lake to regenerate aquatic resources, with a total value of 266 million VND (10,460 USD).

In recent times, with its core role in building and fostering great national unity, Cao Phong district's Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee has actively carried out its responsibilities and front work, and closely collaborated with member organisations to encourage locals to implement the Party’s guidelines, and the State’s policies and laws. At the same time, it has worked to promote the dynamism, creativity, and contributions of officials, Party members, and local people to help the district develop further.
