(HBO) – Kim Boi district has gained many important achievements over the half-term implementation of the Resolution of the district’s 22th Party Congress.

People in Khoang village, Son Thuy
commune, Kim Boi district have invested in longan farming to develop household business.
The district has mobilized different sources of funding to develop
local infrastructure, transfer technology and support people in scaling up
effective business models towards sustainable production closely linked with
distribution. Among the most successful are the farming of Thai jackfruit,
banana, gourd, baby cucumber and various varieties of rice.
At the same time, it has partnered with businesses and
organisations to develop a number of cooperative models, including an
84.7-hectare farm producing pumpkin for seeds, a 2.6-hectare farm of bitter
melon for seeds, 78.5 hectares of sweet corn, 15.3 hectares of Japanese
cucumber and 4 hectares of chili. This cooperation has opened up new opportunities
for farmers to shift to new plants suitable to the local conditions and
potential, hereby improving their income.
Life of people in the commune of 135 Thuong Bi region has
significantly improved thanks to efforts to diversify crops and expand new
farming models such as the cultivation of pumpkin for seeds, chili for export
and Thai jackfruit.

citrus farming, particularly specialty varieties of orange and pomelo, like
yellow-flesh, V2 and sweet orange, Dien and green-skin pomelo, and Huong Chi

The district has formed specialized production areas. It is home
to 1,000 hectares of citrus farms, mostly in the communes of Kim Son, Tu Son,
Vinh Tien, Binh Son and My Hoa, and 230 hectares of longan farms in Son Thuy,
Thuong Bi and Bac Son communes. Some 200 hectares of pumpkin and bitter melon for
seeds and 500 hectares of gourd and pumpkin for commercial purposes have been
also developed in many communes./.

Some communes in the district still fail to have their products met OCOP programme’s requirements, while others have seen their certifications expired.
