Focusing on production development  

To get success in the new rural building program, aside from the motto of promoting all people’s strength, Thanh An commune party committee has spurred production development for local residents.

In order to help local farmers, the communal Farmers’ Society has constantly opened vocational training classes, technical seminars on farming and breeding… Thanks to the training classes, local farmers have enjoyed a high capacity in the last rice crop. In terms of plant structure, local farmers have bravely changed 60-70ha of low capacity rice area to rubber tree growing. Many households have enjoyed high incomes from rubber trees, a 40-50% increase from rice growing”.

Together with agricultural development, Thanh An commune has focused on developing handicraft and trade-service, facilitating new trades’ development. During the process of launching the national program of new rural building, Thanh An commune has concentrated on building cooperatives to develop production, bounding for completion of the program’s all criteria.

Thanh Tan agro-service cooperative is home to 15 members with an income of VND4.5mil per capita per month. Quy Phat agro-service cooperative has 7 members, enjoying an average income of VND4mil per month while Danh Le rice paper cooperative’s 11 members have enjoyed VND3.2mil per capita per month.
