(HBO) – The Lac Thuy district People’s Committee has held a conference to announce Lac Thuy chickens, an indigenous breed, have been granted a trademark by the Ministry of Science and Technology’s Intellectual Property Office.
The high-quality
breed is disease resistant and able to develop quite well even during the cold
weather. It grows fast and provides high economic profits as it is well received by consumers.
Leaders of the Lac Thuy district
People’s Committee present certificates enabling eligible farmers and
businesses to label the trademark to their chicken products.
Lac Thuy chickens were granted Trademark No.315822 in Decision No.19793/QD/SHTT, dated March 18, 2019,
issued by the Intellectual Property Office.
The district is
currently home to two cooperatives cultivating Lac Thuy chickens, over 150 farms, 15 hatcheries and many smallholder breeders. Farmers have cooperated and supported one another in production and distribution. About 10 millions of chicks and 500 tonnes of chicken are
being supplied to the market annually, creating a stable source of income for the farmers and boosting the local agriculture, thus contributing to the district’s
socio-economic development.
The trademark
will create an opportunity
for the district to promote the products among consumers not only in the province but also across the country.
At the
conference, the district’s People’s Committee presented certificates to 30 farmers and businesses to label the
trademark to their chicken products./.
