After
the ten-year implementation of the new-style rural area building programme, all
19 communes in Luong Son have been recognised as new-style rural areas. The
district has invested in infrastructure to better serve local socio-economic
development and residents’ daily life.
Luong
Son has also paid attention to restructuring the agricultural sector and
improving the material and spiritual life of locals. The
locality’s poverty rate is expected to drop to 3.41 percent by the end of this
year, and per capita income to reach 38 million VND.
According
to the People’s Committee of the district, Luong Son has met all nine criteria
set for a new-style rural district. After
touring some communes, the delegation had a working session with the district’s
People’s Committee to evaluate the implementation of the national target
programme on new-style rural area building in the locality.
They
agreed with the committee’s assessment and suggested it supplement relevant
documents, review data in the dossier and attached documents, and send the dossier
to competent agencies on November 25 to submit it to the provincial People’s
Committee for voting.
At
the working session, Luong Son’s leaders pledged to instruct relevant agencies
to soon complete the dossier while continuing with the building of new-style
rural areas, focusing on improving the quality of all criteria./.
Hoa Binh province’s economy posted an impressive Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP) growth rate of 12.67% in the first quarter of 2025, representing a 12.76% year-on-year increase, the highest rate recorded since the beginning of the current tenure, according to the provincial Statistics Office. This robust growth reflects years of strategic groundwork and sets a strong foundation for the province’s annual growth target of over 10%.
With a focus on cash crop farming with science - technology application and brand building, Lac Thuy district is gradually increasing production value, improving people's life quality, and laying the foundation for sustainable socio-economic development.
In recent years, the economic development model "Hoa Binh Earthworm Farm” run by Mr. Bui Van Dang in Co Giua Hamlet, My Thanh Commune (Lac Son district) has not only brought stable economic value but it is also environmentally friendly, helping to protect and reduce pollution, contributing to the construction of a green and sustainable agriculture.
Dao Village’s honey – a product certified with a 3-star OCOP (One Commune One Product) rating by Thong Nhat Agricultural Cooperative in Dao Village (Hoa Binh City) – is highly regarded by consumers for its quality, richness, and variety in packaging. The distinctively sweet taste of Dao Village’s honey leaves a lasting impression on anyone who has tried it.
In alignment with Project No. 07-DA/TU, issued by the Hoa Binh provincial Party Committee on November 1, 2021, Lac Thuy district has actively promoted investment and supported the sustainable development of its industrial and handicraft sectors during the 2021–2025 period. Alongside this, the district has remained committed to preserving and revitalising traditional craft villages.
Located in the northern part of Lac Thuy district, with a temperate climate and fertile soil, Phu Thanh commune has great potential and advantages in growing tea. The long-standing experience, combined with strict adherence to organic farming practices in the tea gardens, ensures that the dried tea products from Phu Thanh and Lac Thuy as a whole are sold out immediately upon production, providing a stable and prosperous life for the local people.
