The district Party Organisation has issued a project on developing high-tech and organic agriculture until 2025, towards developing sustainable agriculture and improving product competitiveness in the market.

The district has directed units, divisions, and communes to set up links between businesses, farmers, and cooperatives in the production and sale of agricultural products, forming an agricultural value chain.

It has also promoted research and application of new science and technology to production; and encouraged the implementation of research works and promising experimental production projects.

In the field of cultivation, the district has directed specialised agencies to coordinate with consulting units and scientists to focus on researching and selecting plant varieties suitable for local soil and climate conditions; build and replicate effective models, such as the intensive plum farming in Van Ho and Long Luong communes, the intensive tea cultivation in To Mua commune, the Thuy Huong 308 rice growing model in Chieng Yen commune, and the Lisianthus nursery, planting and care technical transfer.

The district has developed cooperative groups and cooperatives for growing fruit trees and safe vegetables, and a model of applying economical irrigation technology for some fruit trees, such as drip irrigation and mist irrigation technology; while stepping up market research and promoting the district's agricultural products.

With the drastic direction of the Party Committee and authorities and the efforts of local households and cooperatives, now Van Ho has more than 4,300 hectares of fruit trees and over 1,000 hectares of vegetables.

Of which, 82 hectares of fruit trees and vegetables meet VietGAP standards; 54 hectares have been granted planting area codes, eligible for export. There are seven provincial-level OCOP (One Commune Once Product) products and 79 livestock farming models use biological bedding.

The district has formed three concentrated agricultural production areas, including the high-tech fruit tree production area in Van Ho and Chieng Xuan communes, with nearly 20 hectares applying spray and drip irrigation technology; the 64ha high-tech vegetable production area in Van Ho, To Mua, Long Luong, Song Khua, Muong Men communes, using spray irrigation and drip technology, and membrane and net houses, with an estimated output of 1,611 tonnes per year;  and the concentrated breeding area in Xuan Nha commune, with more than 57,000 pigs and a meat production of more than 6,200 tonnes per year.

The district has built brands associated with geographical indications for some products, such as Pa Puoc tangerine in Chieng Yen commune; Song Khua rice; and Chieng Xuan orange and mango.

With the orientation of promoting focused production, Van Ho strives to become a district with rapid high-tech agriculture development in the province by 2025.
