(HBO) – Secretary of the Party Committee of Hoa Binh province Bui Van Tinh has recently visited a large-scale pig farming model in Quoc village, Phu Minh commune, Ky Son district, to learn firsthand about the production here.

Secretary of the Hoa
Binh Party’s Committee Bui Van Tinh learns about operation of Phu Minh 2+3 pig
farm in Ky Son district.
The
35,200-sqm project has been jointly invested and operated by Japfa Comfeed
Vietnam Ltd, Co. and family of Nguyen Thi Huyen, a local farmer, since 2017.
The
farm includes a raising area of nearly 15,500 sqm divided into 19 rows of piggeries
that breeds 2,480 Landrace and Yorkshire pigs,
including 2,450 sows and 30 boars.
Every
month, the farm sells 5,300 – 5,500 piglets, weighing 6.5 kg each in average,
to pig farms for pork production of Jafpa Comfeed in northern Vietnam. Each
piglet now fetches about 1.5 million VND – 1.6 million VND.
The
farm uses the pig feed produced by Jafpa Comfeed Ky Son while preventive
measures against diseases have strictly followed the company’s standards.
Secretary of the Hoa
Binh Party’s Committee Bui Van Tinh meets with investors of the Phu Minh 2+3
pig farm.
When
meeting with investors of Phu Minh 2+3 pig farm, Tinh urged them to protect
environment during production to not affect life of neighbouring people and
other projects in the area.
He
also asked the provincial Department of Agriculture and Rural Development to
work with the investors to promote the quality and price of the piglets among
local people. He also stressed the need to have a mechanism to support farmers
in order to boost livestock farming and distribution and to facilitate the
development of livestock cooperatives that promote supply chain and improve
income for the farmers./.

The cultivation of Dam Xanh fish (Bangana lemassoni), a unique fish species, has seen remarkable growth in Mai Chau district, thanks to its high economic value and effectiveness. Initially concentrated in Van Mai commune, farming has now extended to four other communes, namely Mai Hich, Mai Ha, Chieng Chau, and Son Thuy. These areas benefit from pristine underground water flowing from mountain crevices, providing ideal conditions for raising this specialty fish.
