model of Nguyen Van Quy in Cay Ruong village, An Binh commune, Lac Thuy
district, reels in nearly 200 million VND in annual revenue.
As a result of the campaign, a number of members have
strived to gain millions of VND in annual revenue and create jobs. For example,

500 million VND a year and generates 30 jobs; and a farm raising 12,000 fowls
of Nguyen Van Long in Cay Ruong village with 200 million VND a year. The
members have also built exemplary orchards that push for economic development

The campaign has led to a reduction in the number of the poor
households among its members, with the figure currently recorded at 152 against
the 203 in 2019.
The total debts of its members are close to 10 billion VND
at the Vietnam Bank for Social Policies, and 67 billion VND at the Vietnam Bank
for Agriculture and Rural Development.

billion VND worth of production value, up 7 percent year on year. The entire
commune has 235,000 fowls, 945 bee hives, and 1,280 goats, with local paddies
and citrus fruit plantations, among others, posting high yield.
