(HBO) – Facing the small farmland area and land fragmentation, Lac Thuy district has promoted land consolidation to form concentrated and large-scaled production zones so as to facilitate production connectivity, science - technology application, mechanisation, and reorganisation of agricultural production.
After land consolidation, An Binh commune of Lac Thuy
district has been moving to mechanise agriculture.
Though An Binh is a remote commune of Lac Thuy
district, it has taken the lead in land consolidation and obtained initial
outcomes. In 2018, it piloted the work in five hamlets, namely Dong Bau, Dong
Rat, Tien Lu, Phu Tuong, and Roc In. The consolidation was expanded to Dong
Bong and Ninh Noi hamlets in 2019, raising the consolidated area to more than
179ha in seven hamlets. It was carried out successfully in Ninh Ngoai and Dai
Dong hamlets last year and continued on 100.5ha in the five remainders in 2021.
So far, all the hamlets across An Binh have conducted land consolidation
successfully.
Chairman of the communal People’s Committee
Quach Cong Muoi said to secure success in land consolidation, An Binh chose the
fields with many advantages and persuade locals there to carry out first in
order to encourage residents in other hamlets to support the policy.
He noted that the successful land consolidation
has addressed land fragmentation and abandonment while facilitating the
mechanisation of agriculture. In particular, it has created a basis for forming
concentrated production zones and applying scientific and technical advances.
The successful consolidation to improve people’s income and living conditions
is the best demonstration of the entire political system’s engagement in mass
mobilisation.
Localities used to encounter a number of
difficulties in land consolidation while some people didn’t support the policy.
However, thanks to local authorities’ strong efforts, patience to persuade
local residents, and implementation of uniform, flexible, and reality-matching
solutions, people have supported and taken part in the work.
Ngo Dinh Tam, head of the division for
agriculture and rural development of Lac Thuy district, said given the
practical benefits from land consolidation, in the time ahead, the district
will order localities to push ahead with the work to gain better effectiveness,
thereby creating an important basis for boosting production connectivity, farm
produce sales, agricultural development, people’s income, as well as the
new-style rural area building.
Lac Thuy is striving to consolidate over 735ha
of farmland in all the 10 communal-level localities in the 2021 - 2025 period,
he added./.
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.
