The apple yield reaches 15 tonnes per hectare, with prices ranging from 15,000 to 50,000 VND per kilogramme. Thanks to superior quality, our cooperative provides about one tonne of jujubes daily to supermarket chains and clean fruit stores both inside and outside the province."

Nguyen Van Tam, Deputy Chairman of the district People's Committee, said, "After four years of implementing Resolution 06-NQ/HU dated December 19, 2021 by the district Party Committee on the development of green agriculture, the district has achieved and exceeded 16 out of 20 targets set in the resolution. Notably, the area of annual crops has reached 113.91% of the goal, with more than 2,247 hectares of fruit trees planted, surpassing the resolution's target by 9.11%; and fresh fruit production has totaled 33,000 tonnes, exceeding the target by 64.18%."

Green agriculture production is proving to be highly effective. Muong La continues to expand its organic rice cultivation models, supports the development of agricultural production under value chains, and promotes the cultivation of valuable medicinal herbs. The district is also diversifying livelihoods, supporting start-ups, and attracting investment. A key focus is to improve the quality of agricultural products through programmes that support the development of OCOP (One Commune Once Product) products, and boost production under VietGAP standards and traceability of product origins.
