This year's winter crop, Thanh Hoa province's planting area is still mainly focused on crops such as rice, corn, vegetables and short-term industrial crops. Each crop has different nutritional needs but all depend heavily on fertilizers to increase quality and yield. Providing fertilizers at the right time and in sufficient quantity is an important condition to help farmers feel secure in production and achieve economic efficiency. According to estimates from the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development, the demand for fertilizers for this year's winter crop production has increased, including major fertilizers such as NPK, DAP, potassium, urea and organic fertilizers.
To meet the demand for fertilizer in the winter crop, fertilizer enterprises in Thanh Hoa have actively planned to stockpile and increase fertilizer production. Tien Nong Agricultural Industry Joint Stock Company is one of the major fertilizer suppliers in Thanh Hoa and has a specific plan to ensure a stable and quality source of fertilizer for this year's winter crop.
Nguyen Hong Phong, General Director of Tien Nong Agricultural Joint Stock Company, said: The winter crop is an important production season not only for farmers but also affects food security and economic development of the province. Faced with challenges from price fluctuations, the company has specific plans to stabilize fertilizer supply. Specifically, we have increased reserves of essential fertilizers, expanded the distribution system, especially in remote areas to ensure that no place is short of fertilizers throughout the crop season. From the beginning of the year, we have built plans to import and produce reserves of major fertilizers, such as NPK, DAP and organic fertilizers. At the same time, we cooperate with local agents to ensure a stable supply of fertilizers at reasonable prices for farmers. Preparing goods early helps us avoid the impact of high prices in the market and maintain stable prices, helping farmers reduce the burden of costs.
“Tien Nong not only provides products but also focuses on providing technical support to farmers by organizing training sessions and seminars on how to use fertilizers effectively, suitable for each type of crop and each growth stage. In addition, we understand the difficulties of farmers, especially during the period of fluctuating prices. Therefore, we have implemented a program to sell fertilizers on installment payments to help farmers buy fertilizers in advance and pay after harvest. We also cooperate with banks to provide preferential loan packages, helping farmers have capital to invest in crops without having to worry too much about costs. This is part of Tien Nong's commitment to accompany and support farmers to stabilize production and increase income,” said Mr. Phong.
As one of the main fertilizer suppliers in Thanh Hoa, Song Ma Fertilizer Joint Stock Company has also had specific plans to ensure a stable supply of fertilizers for this year's winter crop production. The company has proactively stocked essential fertilizers and expanded its distribution network, especially focusing on areas far from the center, to promptly meet farmers' fertilizer needs. The company is also committed to keeping prices stable, minimizing the impact of the market on farmers' production costs. The company applies strict quality control measures in each stage of production, and coordinates with agents and authorities to inspect and prevent counterfeit and fake goods on the market. In addition, the company also organizes consulting and training programs for farmers on how to use fertilizers effectively, at the right time and in the right dosage, helping farmers optimize costs and increase productivity.
Ensuring adequate, quality and timely supply of fertilizers is a decisive factor in helping Thanh Hoa farmers have a successful winter crop. Implementing solutions such as reserve supply, quality control, encouraging the use of organic fertilizers, consulting and disseminating appropriate fertilization methods will contribute to improving productivity, quality of agricultural products and income for people. Thereby, not only helping people have more income from the winter crop but also ensuring food security, contributing to the sustainable development of agriculture in Thanh Hoa province and the whole country.
