Lac Thuy district, has been successful thanks to the model of Lac Thuy chicken
farming.
In early 2010, Dong Tam commune strongly developed
chicken farming model in Lac Thuy. Many households have converted their gardens
and hills to farms to raise chickens. Lac Thuy chickens with delicious meat has
quickly become popular, opening up promising development opportunities for
local farmers.
Seeing high economic efficiency, Liem invested in
cages to raise chickens. On a flat and wide litchi garden, he used B40 steel
mesh divided into six areas to breed chickens.
In the first batch, he raised 3,000 hatches.
Despite difficulties such as the lack of experience in caring and preventing
epidemics for chickens, he still achieved successes. The first batch of
chickens was sold at high prices, giving him more capital to expand farming.
"It is a local variety which must be raised
free-range so that a large area is needed. I raise chickens and learn
experience from other households, books and newspapers so I do not meet much
difficulties”, Liem said.
According to him, his family raised up to 12,000
chickens at the highest per batch. Now, there are 4,000 chickens which could be
sold in the next 10 days. Apart from raising chickens for meat, he raises another
2,000 for laying eggs. Last year, he sold nearly 7 tonnes of chicken, earning
roughly 300 million VND. He is raising 2,000 breeding chickens.
"Compared to other fowls, Lac Thuy chicken is
quite appropriate because it is popular in the market. There are many farming
households but their connectivity is weak. For sustainable results, we hope to
establish a cooperative for mutual support and improve Lac Thuy chicken
trademark”, Liem said./.
