The northern province of Bac Giang is stepping up the application of science and technology in agricultural production to improve its value and increase farmers’ income. Accordingly, the province focuses on applying good agricultural practices (VietGAP, GlobalGAP), clean production technology and biotechnology; develop organic agriculture; ensure food safety and hygiene; and protect the environment. It encourages the building of ecological and environment-friendly agricultural models such as organic agriculture and closed-loop circular agriculture. The province plans to increase its quality rice area to 55,000 hectares, and the acreage of fruit trees to about 55,000 hectares, with focus on growing lychee, citrus (orange, pomelo), longan, custard apple, pineapple and guava following VietGAP and GlobalGAP standards. By 2030, the province will also expand its vegetable production area to 28,000 ha with 12,500 ha meeting VietGAP standards. At the same time, the locality will maintain the breeding of 1-1.2 million pigs, and 22-25 million poultry. VNA Photo: Danh Lam
