(HBO) - A delegation from the Vietnam Farmers’ Union has worked with the farmers’ association of the northern province of Hoa Binh to examine the implementation of Project 24 on building trade associations and groups.
After three years of implementing the union’s project, the farmers’
association has disseminated and guided to establish 63 chapters and groups
with 999 members, operating in cultivation and animal husbandry.
Through the farmers’ support fund, the
association has helped farmer households borrow a total of 2.7 billion VND
(116,100 USD) in loans for production and doing business; and over 15 billion
VND through the banks’ support fund.
The association also supported its members to buy
fertiliser and farming machines as well as enabled them to join training
activities on science-technology and equipment for production.
Since establishment, the chapters and groups
have been operating effectively, creating connectivity and mutual benefits for
members in production, business and services as well as goods competitiveness.
The organisation of farmers’ chapters at all
levels has received due attention and carried out regularly. Hoa Binh is now
home to 133,469 farmer members. Through the annual evaluation, over 80 percent of
farmers’ establishments record good performance. All farmers’ establishments
have funds. The average annual fund is 70,000 VND per member per year./.

Red grapefruit is a native crop of Tan Lac district, where the fertile soil and favourable climate create ideal conditions for its growth. With over 80% of the area being mountainous, at an altitude of 300-400 metres above sea level, red grapefruits here thrive on well-drained, fertile hillside soil. The region’s large temperature variation between day and night enhances the fruit's nutrient absorption. The local cultivation techniques also contribute to its uniqueness
