Hai Phong (VNA) – The Thuan Loi Limited Company has launched a high-tech organic rice farming model in Hai Phong’s Kien Thuy district, the first of its kind in the northern city.
Head of the company Nguyen Dinh Thuan said preparations for the project have been carried out since June 2016, with four high-quality rice varieties selected to be cultivated on 32.3 hectares.
The company has built a production site with facilities for general management as well as rice processing and storage.
Pham Van Ha, Vice Chairman of the Hai Phong People’s Committee, said the project will help boost clean agricultural growth in Hai Phong and requested Kien Thuy authorities to facilitate its operation.
In 2017, Hai Phong passed a resolution on high-tech agricultural area for 2016-2025.
