(HBO) - On November 17th, the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development held a conference to promote trade and collaborate about consuming outstanding agricultural, forest and aquatic products of the province. Leaders of Ha Noi Department of Agriculture and Rural Development attended the conference.
The conference is a part of the trade promotion plans for agricultural, forest and aquatic products which are guaranteed and have outstanding quality from Hoa Binh province towards Ha Noi market. This is determined as a big market with the population of nearly 10 million people and high consumption demand. Meanwhile, the quantity and proportion of Hoa Binh products consumed in this market is quite limited. Up to now, there are only some products, such as purple sugar canes, oranges, hill chicken, local pigs, rock mountain goats, lake fish, but the consumption is quite low and found in small markets or supermarkets. They are not traded in the exchange or large supermarkets. According to the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development, it is estimated that over 80% of agricultural products are consumed in the local provincial market, as small traders buy directly from producers at negotiated prices, the contractual rates or pepper commitments of the products are very low, the legality is not high and easy to be broken.

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
