(HBO) – The Department of Agriculture and Rural Development of Hoa Binh province and concerned enterprises organised a ceremony on March 19 to mark the export of the first batch of fresh sugarcane to the US.
Sugarcane products are transported to vehicles
and sealed for export to the US.
The event was attended by Vice Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee
Dinh Cong Su, representatives from departments, agencies and trade partners,
and local officials.
Since late 2021, Tien Ngan Trading Investment Company Limited has shipped more
than 100 tonnes of fresh sugarcane to the EU, Japan and the Republic of Korea.
The orders have been on the rise, showing that the product has gained a
foothold in demanding markets.
After nearly six months of negotiations, with support of the Department of
Agriculture and Rural Development and the Plant Protection Department, it has
satisfied technical requirements by the US side.
The first 17.3 tonnes of fresh sugarcane exported to the US were purchased,
processed and packaged by Tien Ngan. Meanwhile, New Production Technology and
Trading Development Company Limited and Vina Agri Import Company were in charge
of procedures and logistics.
Ten sugarcane juice rolling mills were also shipped to the market on this
occasion.
Speaking at the ceremony, Su asked the Department of Agriculture and Rural
Development and other departments and agencies and localities in Hoa Binh to
further facilitate sugarcane production and processing, meeting food safety
requirements and others set by both domestic and foreign markets.
More batches of fresh sugarcane are to be exported to the RoK this month.
Hoa Binh city is transitioning to modern and sustainable agriculture by leveraging its natural advantages to efficiently develop crop cultivation and animal husbandry. The city is applying scientific and technical advancements to farming, processing, and distribution while expanding export markets, significantly increasing production value and incomes for farmers.
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.
