(HBO) – Given the complicated development of COVID-19 in Luong Son district, local cooperatives have adjusted their production and business plans and diversified their approaches to the market. As a result, they have sustained production and boosted their capacity to adapt to the situation.

Workers at the Cao Son Xanh cooperative in Luong Son’s Cao Son commune seriously follow the Ministry of Health’s 5K message for COVID-19 prevention and control.

From 6pm on July 27, Luong Son imposed social distancing measures under the Prime Minister’s Directive 16 on COVID-19 prevention and control. To seriously enforce the measures while mitigating their negative impact on business and production, local cooperatives have come up with suitable solutions.

At the beginning of the year, the Cao Son Xanh cooperative has got safe production plans ready. All of its 6ha of land for raising 100 cows are guarded strictly. Ha Ngoc Hoa said to ensure COVID-19 prevention, the farm is shut to outsiders. Three regular workers are also not allowed to go out of the cooperative area and are provided with accommodation and daily necessities, while animal feed suppliers have to present negative COVID-19 quick test to enter the place.

According to statistics, Luong Son has 57 cooperatives with over 600 members and nearly 500 workers, whose monthly income is between 3 and 3.5 million VND. They help create jobs, ease poverty, boost economic and labour restructuring, and exploit the locality’s strengths and potential. In the face of unpredictable developments of the pandemic, the collective economic sector plays an important role in the district’s realisation of its dual goals in socio-economic development. Notably, agricultural cooperatives are now an important in-place source of food supply to ensure food security during the social distancing period. The new situation, meanwhile, is a chance for local cooperatives to build their business strategies and change their marketing methods by applying digital technologies.
