increase their income.

Bac Farmers' Association, said: The income of 2 million VND may be low for many
people, but for rural women, that is quite high. Particularly in Da Bac town,
the area of agricultural land is small, the service is not developed. Each
household has an average of only 1,000-2,000 square meters of rice, vegetables,
and maize, that can not remain daily life or economic development.
The employment problems for rural people have
long been a problem for the town. The introduction of rattan, bamboo knitting

knitting jobs to create many jobs for laborers. She felt very happy. She and
her husband's sister-in-law went to Phu Vinh, Phu Nghia, Truc Son communes (in
