Yen Thuy district has effectively implemented a project to support the construction of model new-style rural residential areas and gardens under the national target programme on new-style rural area building for 2021-2025.
The model pomelo orchard of Nguyen Duc Binh in Ngoc Luong
commune, Yen Thuy district yields high economic value, with the fruit exported
to the US.
Ngoc Luong is one of the first communes in Yen Thuy and Hoa
Binh province to complete the new-style rural area building target in 2015,
also one of the examples in building model gardens.
Bui Van Phuong, Secretary of the communal Party Committee,
said the locality is home to 188 model gardens, adding local residents have
been advised to pay attention to crop structure and grow citrus trees,
especially Dien pomelo.
Thanks to the project, the district now counts 292 model
gardens. The total funding for the project in the 2021-2023 period stood at at
over 5.3 billion VND (208,538 USD).
Over the past three years, Yen Thuy has been given a
facelift and local residents’ awareness of environmental landscape has been
improved significantly.
Maximizing local potential and advantages, Yen Tri commune in Yen Thuy district is actively promoting the cultivation of medicinal herbs and turning medicinal herbs into One Commune - One Product (OCOP) products.
Situated at the gateway to the Northwest, Hoa Binh province has a population of over 900,000, including about 540,000 of working age.

The Hoa Binh provincial People's Committee has issued Decision No. 2767/QD-UBND announcing the rankings of departments, agencies, districts and Hoa Binh city in the Public Administration Reform Index (PAR) and the Satisfaction Index of Public Administration Services (SIPAS) in 2024.
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.
