(HBO) With more than 100 original pomelo trees, the family of Mr. Bui Van Nong, the Vice Chairman of Bac Son’s (Kim Boi) Farmers’ Association collected 20 million the first harvest. Last year, the second year, his family earned 80 million. In 2018, the pomelo garden brought the family the income of 110 million VND. Mr. Nong's family is one of many households in the commune having income of 100 million VND per year thanks to Dien pomelo trees.


With nearly one thousand Dien pomelo trees, the family of Mr. Bach Cong The in Kha Tren village has an income of over 1 billion VND.

Bac Son has strongly transformed the area of ​​unstable rice cultivation into seedlings such as bitter melon, pumpkin, melon and so on to gradually increase the production value on one cultivated area. As a result of this, the per capita income has improved, contributing to the effective implementation of hunger eradication and poverty reduction, and step by step helping Bac Son out of the extremely difficult communes. After that time, the Party Committee of the commune continued to issue a resolution on the restructuring of plants and animals.

Accordingly, the commune’s Party sub-branches have consulted with other Party members and the masses to apply and bring high-value plants and animals into production. In particular, Dien pomelo trees are chosen by the majority of people. Having identified the new directions, many households have focused on changing the mixed garden, unstable one-crop land area of ​​rice into growing Dien pomelo trees. Initially, only Mr Bui Van The's family living in Kham Tren village invested in converting nearly 1 hectare of garden land, fields and poorly paddy fields into growing Dien pomelo trees. After that, many households, mainly in Khe village, in the commune studied and followed. Out of 786 households in the commune, there are more than 300 Dien pomelo growers with the total area of ​​over 60 ha. But for the family of Bui Van The, Bui Van Thanh's  Bui Van Dieu’s families have also expanded the pomelo tree area, initially bringing high economic efficiency.

Mr. Bui Van Dieu's family in Khanh village was once in a difficult situation but they bravely borrowed money to invest in planting pomelo trees. With more than 100 pomelo trees, his family’s annual income is more than 100 million VND. After 3 years, the income from pomelo trees has helped his family pay off debts, and the life is step by step increasing.
