V-Organic Organic Agricultural Cooperative, Quyet Chien Commune (Tan Lac District, Hoa Binh Province) is successful with the model of growing green vegetables, tubers, and organic fruits. The tomatoes on the farm are pleasing to the eye.
Hoa Binh province borders the capital Hanoi, is blessed with fresh air and clean water, which are favorable conditions for the development of organic agriculture.
In recent years, organic agriculture has been chosen by cooperatives in Hoa Binh province to develop production, typically the V-Organic organic agricultural cooperative.
With the goal of producing clean agricultural products that are safe for consumers' health, V-Organic Organic Agricultural Cooperative always strictly adheres to organic production processes, from seed selection, care to harvesting and processing.
The cooperative's products not only meet the market's increasing demand for quality and safety, but also contribute to environmental protection, creating sustainable agricultural production.

Starting operations in July 2021 with 7 members, V-Organic Organic Agricultural Cooperative develops production according to a linked chain. The cooperative produces vegetables and tubers in an organic, safe direction, for the health of consumers and friendly to the environment.
"Clean agriculture is my burning desire. I have been to many lands to learn and research soil and climate to invest in clean agriculture. After many trips, I realized that Quyet Chien commune is very suitable for investing in agriculture. Therefore, I decided to choose this place to invest in growing vegetables and tubers according to organic and safe standards," said Ms. Can Thi Thuy Trang, Chairwoman of the Board of Directors of V-Organic Organic Agricultural Cooperative.
According to Ms. Trang, in previous years, V-Organic organic agricultural cooperative grew vegetables for export to the Korean market and was highly appreciated.
Taking advantage of the change of season, the Cooperative recently planted nearly 3 hectares of tomatoes in greenhouses to supply to major supermarkets in Hanoi. Every day, the Cooperative supplies the market with more than 200 kg of tomatoes. In addition to tomato products, in 2024, the Cooperative will plant nearly 10 hectares of vegetables and cooperate with households to expand the planting area.

With a large production scale, to closely monitor the production process, the cooperative divides into small areas to grow different types of vegetables such as: radish growing area, cucumber growing area, melon growing area, tomato growing area, cabbage growing area... Along with that, the cooperative invests in installing an automatic sprinkler irrigation system. All stages from land preparation, planting, care, and harvesting of vegetables are supervised by technical staff.
For example, the cooperative's irrigation water is taken from water sources from the forest and from drilled wells, then brought to a settling tank, tested, treated, and then used to irrigate crops.
The cooperative uses an automatic sprinkler irrigation system to create balanced humidity to help plants grow well. During the cultivation process, members and workers of the cooperative are instructed on safe production processes, fully equipped with labor protection equipment, knowledge about labor safety, etc.
In September 2024, due to the impact of storm No. 3 and low pressure, heavy rain damaged 0.5 hectares of crops and greenhouses, and the cooperative's irrigation system, affecting the cooperative's revenue. By December 2024, the cooperative continued to overcome the damage caused by natural disasters, so there was no revenue. However, the cooperative still created favorable conditions for workers to have a source of income.

According to Ms. Trang, when participating in the cooperative, people have the opportunity to work in a professional environment, receive training in organic agricultural production techniques, thereby improving their skills and income.
Besides, the cooperative also creates many extra jobs for people, especially women who both work and do housework.
Ms. Bui Thi Thanh, Chien hamlet, Van Son commune, Tan Lac district shared: "I have been working here for more than 3 years. The cooperative creates jobs and regular income for members to have conditions to take care of their families. As an organic vegetable production model, I feel secure working here because the environment is safe. In addition, I learned techniques for growing popular organic vegetables. From this knowledge, many people have applied it in practice and become associated households growing vegetables for the cooperative."
It is known that in 2024, the cooperative will have a revenue of over 2.5 billion VND. After deducting all expenses, the cooperative will earn nearly half a billion VND.
Along with that, the cooperative is creating regular jobs for more than a dozen local workers with an income of over 5 million VND/person/month. In addition, the cooperative has helped households link up in terms of technology, product consumption, and forming a sustainable chain of links in agricultural development.
