(HBO) – The sub-department of agro-forestry-fishery quality management has held a conference in Tan Son commune, Mai Chau district, to review the model linking production and consumption of vegetables following the VietGap practice.
The model was implemented in Tam Hoa hamlet, Tan Son commune, between July and
November this year. The Tam Hoa agriculture service and development
cooperative, consisting of 10 households, benefited from the project.

vegetable prices have increased by between 1,000and3,000 VND perkg.
