Transforming corn and cassava fields into orchards yielding 2-3 billion VND annually

Having previously had to forage for wild yams in the forest to eat instead of corn and cassava, Mr. Hang A So has made a significant transformation in his agricultural practices. He decided to convert his traditional corn and cassava fields into fruit orchards, focusing on high-economic-value fruit varieties. Currently, Mr. So has successfully established 8 hectares of land cultivated with fruit trees such as plum (mận hậu) and sweet orange (cam đường). This decision was made after many years of facing difficulties from growing traditional food crops. This change has not only significantly improved his family's livelihood but also opened up a direction for more sustainable agricultural development in the region, thereby contributing to crop diversification and increased income for the local population.
