The models include centralized VietGAP and organic vegetable growing areas in the communes of Quang Minh, Trung Son, Nghia Trung, Viet Tien, Tu Lan, Minh Duc (total area of 80ha).

Key products of chilli, cucumber, potato, squash, sweet potato…will be developed in the communes of Thuong Lan, Tu Lan, Viet Tien, Quang Minh …while onion will be grown in 60 ha in Nghia Trung and Ninh Son communes.

To meet the demand of industrial parks and schools, the district People’s Committee prepared project to support the infrastructure of intensive agricultural production area.

Accordingly, from now on till 2025, the district will allocate expense to assist inner road and field at 14 concentrated production areas, including 9 areas for growing rice each covering over 50ha and remaining areas for cultivating vegetable each scale of over 20ha.

Head of the district Division of Agriculture and Rural Development Nguyen Viet Cuong said: “The district People’s Committee estimates to arrange some 100 billion VND to reinforce the infrastructure of concentrated production area; concrete the road, canal and build the area for gathering and buying farm produce”.
