(HBO) – Five years after the Hoa Binh Party Committee issued a resolution on a support mechanism for distribution of local agricultural commodities for 2014 – 2020, a number of its farming products such as orange, pomelo, longan, chayote, organic vegetables, purple sugarcane and hill chicken have gained broader access to markets in other cities and provinces, particularly Hanoi, and won welcome by consumers.

local farmers.
Over the last five years, the
provincial People’s Committee has directed relevant authorities to adopt many
policies to support agricultural production and distribution of key farming
products, particularly citrus fruits, clean vegetables and fish of Hoa Binh
Reservoir.
Greater attention has been
paid to popularising high-yield and high-quality crop varieties to add more
values to local agricultural and forestry products. The province has
successfully developed new high-yield and pest-resistant paddy rice and maize,
among others, and piloted the cultivation of new herbal plants like sacha inchi
and new citrus fruits.
It has also exerted more
efforts to promote its products by making them available on major trading
floors, in order to not only boost sale but also avoid oversupply.
Additionally, it has set up provincial and district centres for promoting and
distributing farming products right after harvest.
A total of 3.4 billion VND
has been invested to help distribute more than 10,000 tonnes of agricultural
products to markets outside the province. The province has diversified
distributing methods in close association with tourism./.
In Lac Thuy district, communes have been succeeded in promoting their One Commune-One Product (OCOP) products while others are still struggling to position their typical farming products in market. Some communes in the district still fail to have their products met OCOP programme’s requirements, while others have seen their certifications expired.
The inspectorate agency of Hoa Binh province has issued Official Dispatch No. 1090/TTr-PCTN to provincial departments, agencies, localities, business associations, enterprises, and investors regarding measures to improve informal component indexes of the Provincial Competitiveness Index (PCI).
Hoa Binh is taking concrete steps to improve its investment environment, with a strong focus on supporting businesses, settling obstacles for strategic investors, and creating opportunities for robust development in the coming years.
