The entire local political system, from the district to grassroots levels, has associated this movement with emulation campaigns.

Each residential area has stepped up efforts to boost production, improve income, sustainably alleviate poverty, restructure agriculture towards higher added value, sustainably develop model new-style rural residential areas, and facilitate cooperative economy and connectivity in agricultural production and sale, he noted.

In more than two years, Luong Son has seen many residential areas with annual per capita income of over 50 million VND (2,160 USD), as well as role-model gardens generating annual revenue of 300 – 500 million VND.
