According to the report of the Cao Bang Provincial Ethnic Minorities Committee, with investment resources and support from the National Target Program 1719 and effective integration of capital from other programs and projects, the poverty reduction rate among ethnic minorities in the province has exceeded the set target. In 2024, the province set a target of reducing the number of poor ethnic minority households by over 3%, and it is expected to reach 4% by the end of this year.
Before implementing the National Target Program 1719, in 2020, the province actively disbursed capital from Program 135. Thereby, 189 projects were implemented to support production development and livelihood diversification; including 29,908 kg of food crop seeds; 679 buffaloes and cows of all kinds; 783 pigs and goats; 291,385 poultry; 305,114 fruit trees; 82,000 forestry trees; 194,000 perennial industrial trees; 109 cages; 229 machines of all kinds; 19.49 tons of fertilizer for beneficiaries.
From 2022 to present, poverty reduction work in Cao Bang province has made a strong breakthrough with the driving force from the National Target Programs, especially the National Target Program 1719. Essential infrastructure, especially rural transport infrastructure, has been invested in and gradually completed, creating a foundation for Cao Bang province to focus on supporting ethnic minorities to exploit their potential and strengths to develop production.
One of the province's strengths is developing the forestry economy. To develop the economy under the forest canopy associated with sustainable forest protection in ethnic minority areas, from the capital of the National Target Program 1719, the province has implemented contracts and provided financial support for the protection of 237,067.55 hectares of forest; at the same time, it has implemented 461 projects to support production development with a total of 21,304 households participating.
With the momentum from the National Target Program 1719 effectively integrated with other programs and projects, Cao Bang province continues to implement the goal of multidimensional poverty reduction in ethnic minority areas; at the same time, continue to invest and support extremely difficult areas to escape ethnic minority and mountainous areas of the province to complete infrastructure, creating a foundation to promote production development. By 2025, the province strives to reduce the poverty rate by 4% or more; in which the poverty rate in poor districts will decrease by 5% or more, the poverty rate of ethnic minority households will decrease by 4% or more.
