(HBO) – With the strong determination of the whole political system and the high consensus of the people, the building of new-style rural areas in Lac Thuy district, Hoa Binh province, has seen significant changes. The majority of officials and locals have become more aware of the matter and contributed to developing rural areas in many creative ways. So far, eight communes in the district have been recognised as new rural areas, including three particularly disadvantaged ones - Lien Hoa, Phu Thanh and Yen Bong. Lac Thuy is striving to become new-style rural area by 2020.

Committee has approved a project restructuring the agricultural sector towards
increasing added value and sustainable development between 2016 and 2020,
focusing on cultivation.
The district has established concentrated farm
produce production areas and large-scale fields. It is now home to 1,146
hectares of citrus fruits and 200 hectares of mixed plants.
Besides implementing the three value chains,
including two growing chilli for export and safe vegetable on 40 hectares and
one raising 10,000 chickens, the district has maintained the operation of farm
produce and safe food cooperatives, and attracted businesses to invest in
growing safe vegetable and medicinal plants according to value chain links such
as Lac Thuy Clean Agriculture Company, Vietnam Chilli Co., Ltd., Northern Green
Land Real Estate and Services JSC, and Sinh Loc Humanity Vocational Training
JSC.
As of 2018, the per capita income in the
district reached 38.9 million VND (1,659 USD), up 2.5 times against 2011. The
rate of poor households was brought down to 10.98 percent, or 10.42 percent
lower than the figure in 2011.

of the new-style rural building programme by 2020. The district strives to
continuously improve the eight recognised new rural communes as well as build
An Binh and Khoan Du into new rural areas in 2019 and An Lac, Dong Mon, and

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
