Affirming the economic position of the garden
In 2024, many Tien Phuoc gardeners will have income from several hundred million to billions of dong from areca trees. The price of areca this year is sky-high, at times reaching over 90 thousand dong/kg.
The communes of Tien Lanh, Tien Ngoc, Tien Hiep, and Tien Tho have large areca palm areas in the district. For example, the garden of Mr. Bui Van Ty's family (Tien Hiep commune, Tien Phuoc) has 500 areca palm trees from 7 to 15 years old. When Mr. Ty harvested, the areca palms were priced at 55 - 75 thousand VND/kg, so he earned about 60 million VND for 1 ton of areca palms.
He shared: “This year, areca nuts have good prices, helping my family have a good source of income. In fact, if the price does not increase too much, at 20-40 thousand VND/kg, it will still bring a stable source of income for growers.”
