(HBO) – With 14,560 hectares of water surfaces Hoa Binh province boasts huge potential for cage fish farming or natural resources development.
Residents
in Thai Thinh commune, Hoa Binh city, earn big incomes from cage fish breeding
on Hoa Binh Lake.
Implementing
the provincial Party Committee’s Resolution on cage fish breeding development
on Hoa Binh Lake during the 2014-2020 period, the provincial People’s Committee
has decided to provide nearly 30.9 billion VND for 1,702 households in Hoa Binh
city and four communes cultivating 2,600 cages.
At
the end of 2019, Hoa Binh province’s aquaculture area was 2,700 ha, up 610 ha
compared with 2013. More than 4,670 fish cages (up 3,300 cages) scattering Hoa
Binh’s localities produced over 9,200 tonnes of fishes, a rise of 5,200 tonnes
from 2013. The locality’s aquaculture sector grew about 6.2 percent in the
year.
Currently,
Hoa Binh counts 15 facilities and households that have invested in more than 20
fish cages each. Many businesses like Mavin Group, Viet Duc Investment Trading
Company Limited, and Hai Dang, Cuong Thinh and Hung Nguyen companies have set
up modern fish raising cages. Nine of the 15 facilities have received food
safety certificates and gained a firm foothold in the market.
With
result-oriented policies and guidelines, Hoa Binh province has tapped into its
potential and advantages in agriculture.
Localities
in Hoa Binh are gearing towards sustainable development. They aim to diversify
products and raise productivity and income on the basis of new technology
application, while expanding fish farms.
The
province expects to boost cage fish breeding, especially on the Hoa Binh Lake,
striving for the target of 4,800 cages with an output of 9,500 tonnes by 2020./.
With the motto of "polite, dedicated, professional, and lawful,” over the years, Phu Cuong commune in Tan Lac district has gradually improved the quality of processing administrative procedures, winning high satisfaction from local people and businesses.
Stretching over 300 meters, valued at hundreds of million dong and built to the new-style rural standards, a concrete road in De hamlet, Bac Phong commune, Cao Phong district, was completed by the end of 2023 thanks to the collective contributions of armed forces at provincial and district levels coupled with the active participation of military units stationed throughout the district.
Over the years, the People’s Committee of Lac Thuy district has issued many plans and programmes to speed up the administrative reform, aiming to better serve local people and businesses.
Kim Boi district is drafting 23 planning projects which are expected to help boost the local socio-economic development, attract investors, and mobilise resources for development, said Vice chairman of the district People’s Committee Tran Tuan Son.
They include the one on Bo urban area development until 2045, 20 zoning, and 12 on rural residential areas in communes.
This year, Hoa Binh province strives to have eight communes recognised as meeting new-style rural area standards and five communes satisfying exemplary new-style rural area standards. Since the beginning of the year, the provincial People's Committee has drastically directed the implementation of the national target programme on new-style rural area building to fulfil the set target.
Cao Phong district achieved positive socio-economic development results last year as drastic comprehensive measures were implemented with high determination of its whole political system, said the Secretary of the district Party Committee Ha Van Di.
