In order to increase income value per unit area, the agricultural sector and localities in the province have created favorable conditions for organizations and individuals to accumulate and concentrate land, shift crop structure to expand intensive crop areas for high productivity and output.
To expand the area of intensive crops, Thach Thanh district has been actively transforming the crop structure associated with land accumulation, high-tech production and digital transformation in agriculture to form concentrated, large-scale agricultural production areas. Thereby, the district has proactively planned large-scale concentrated fruit growing areas to attract organizations and individuals to invest in developing and applying high technology in production. Up to now, the whole district has developed 1,100 hectares of concentrated fruit trees, with an output of 22,000 tons/year. Many intensive fruit tree cultivation models in the district have high economic efficiency, such as: oranges, grapefruits in Thanh Cong commune and Van Du town; dragon fruit in Thanh Tien and Thanh Tam communes; Taiwanese guava in Thanh Tam commune...
Along with developing fruit trees, people in Thach Dong commune have linked up with Sao Khue Trading Joint Stock Company (Dong Son), Luu Suong Trading Company Limited (Ha Trung) for production with an area of 200 hectares of areca nut sticky rice/crop, yielding 100 tons. In addition, through cooperatives as a bridge, people in the district have signed contracts to link up production and intensive cultivation of 3,000 hectares of raw sugarcane/year with Vietnam - Taiwan Sugar Company Limited... Mr. Tran Ba Son, Vice Chairman of Thach Thanh District People's Committee, said: "In order to promote the advantages of natural conditions and key crops of the district to focus on developing production in the direction of applying high technology associated with the value chain. Currently, Thach Thanh district is focusing on mobilizing resources and attracting enterprises and cooperatives to participate in completing the Project "Piloting the conversion of crop structure, associated with land accumulation and concentration, digital transformation for high-tech agricultural production in Thach Thanh district by 2030". Thereby, the district actively innovates forms of production organization, promotes the conversion of crop structure, land accumulation and concentration, applies science and technology and develops the market, builds and forms large-scale, high-quality concentrated agricultural areas".
Up to now, the province has maintained and developed intensive crop areas and concentrated production areas, such as: 150,000ha of high-yield, high-quality intensive rice, 20,000ha of intensive corn, 12,000ha of intensive sugarcane, 13,500ha of safe vegetables, 325ha of high-tech ornamental flowers and plants, 12,000ha of concentrated fruit trees, 17,000ha of animal feed trees. Many intensive crop models have high economic efficiency, such as: Production of F1 hybrid rice seeds, purebred rice varieties and commercial rice in Yen Dinh, Hoang Hoa, Thieu Hoa, Tho Xuan, Nong Cong districts... with economic efficiency from 1.2 to 1.5 times compared to normal production; intensive fruit tree growing areas in Tho Xuan, Thach Thanh, Nhu Xuan districts... with revenue of 500 million VND/ha, profit of 350 million VND/ha; Growing medicinal plants in Trieu Son district brings in an income of 400 million/ha/year...
To develop intensive crops, through "Building an agricultural map to serve intensive farming, converting crop structure and managing sustainable use of agricultural land resources in Thanh Hoa province (phase 1)", the agricultural sector orients the development of crops suitable for climate and soil conditions, such as: Developing citrus fruit trees and pineapples, dragon fruit, guava, seedless lychee, early ripening longan in Thach Thanh, Nhu Xuan, Ngoc Lac districts... At the same time, converting the crop structure from low-economic efficiency crops to higher-economic efficiency crops, developing raw material crops for processing, such as: 8,100ha of sugarcane, 7,200ha of cassava, 5,400ha of rubber, 4,500ha of animal feed crops.
In the delta districts, land accumulation and concentration are promoted for large-scale agricultural production, applying high technology. Along with that, localities focus on developing large-scale, concentrated specialized production areas, such as: 101,500ha of intensive, high-yield, high-quality rice area; 4,000ha of concentrated fruit tree area; more than 8,000ha of vegetable and fruit production area; 325ha of concentrated ornamental flower and tree area...
According to Director of the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development Cao Van Cuong, in recent years, the trend of developing intensive crop cultivation with high technology application has been invested by localities, business communities and cooperatives. This is a form of production that brings the highest value as well as the best quality of products in agricultural production. In the coming time, to develop intensive crop production in the province, the agricultural sector will review and redefine concentrated production areas to apply high technology. The province needs to issue strong enough policies to attract people, businesses and cooperatives to focus on developing intensive crop cultivation with high technology application. Along with that, the agricultural sector actively applies science and technology transfer into production, making high-tech agricultural production a spearhead.
