(HBO) – To support members in the implementation of the One Commune One Product (OCOP) Programme, the farmers' associations at all levels in Mai Chau district have focused on assisting farmers to build products through setting up training plans and dissemination programmes. Members are encouraged to develop collective economic models which are suitable to each locality, industry and condition.
Professional staff accompany farmers in
agricultural production.
They are advised to shift the structure of plants, livestock, and crops;
exploit potential and strengths in land, human resources and capital for
production and collective economy development. Households are encouraged to
gather land, improve management skills and form specialised farming models,
thus creating products of high economic value and gradually developing OCOP
products. In the past 10 months, the district Farmers' Association has
supported the establishment of six cooperative groups in the fields of
aquaculture, growing bananas in combination with raising cows, cow breeding and
fish cage farming.
Consultancy and support services for farmers have also been promoted. The
district Farmers' Association organised two vocational training courses on
livestock breeding for 67 members as well as helped farmers secure employment
in the first 10 months of 2022. After being trained, members can earn an
average income of 3-4 million VND (125-167 USD) per month.
The farmers' associations at all levels, in coordination with relevant
industries and businesses, supplied 155 tons of fertilisers to farmers in
five communes, namely Pa Co, Hang Kia, Thanh Son, Mai Ha and Bao La.
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.
