Mr. Bui Van Thanh is taking care of his
family's red dragon fruit garden.
Realizing the potential of this plant, Mr.
Thanh boldly borrowed money, planting more than 200 roots in the field. Up to
now, his family has over 300 dragon fruit roots, and all have harvested. Last
year, his family earned about 30 million VND for fortune-telling fruit. From
the beginning of this year, he used the knowledge he learned in caring dragon
fruit for higher productivity. So far, his family has sold more than 2 tons of
dragon fruit, at the price of 25,000 VND / kg, bringing in the income of over
50 million VND.
On the day we visited his garden, traders
came directly to his garden to collect more than 5 tons of dragon fruit of Mr.
Thanh’s family. In the garden, there were only a few fruit of small size left, Mr. Thanh invited us to try eating.
Admittedly, in addition to the eye-catching red color, this round dragon fruit
is sweeter than white dragon fruit. With an area of 2,500 m2 of dragon fruit,
since the beginning of this year, it has brought an income of more than 50
million VND for his family. This figure is likely to increase as the dragon
fruit continues to be harvested from now to the end of the year. Obviously, the
efficiency that this plant brings is higher than that of maize, rice and some
other crops. Besides selling fruit, Mr. Thanh is actively make reproduction of
this plant to provide seedings for local people, and preparing to expand the
area. "My family is making reproduction of this plant and adding more
concrete piles to plant 200 more dragon fruit roots.This time, I will plant in
a new style, making standees for dragon fruit to climb, so as to save space and
get higher productivity."Mr. Thanh said.
With a stable price, high economic efficiency
and low market supply, the model of planting red dragon fruit of Mr. Bui Van
Thanh's family, in Doi Bung 2 Hamlet, Dong Lai Commune (Tan Lac) is the new
potential direction, opening the new way for the family to become rich.
