4 seasons of hydroponic lettuce

With the ability to invest synchronously with optimal technological solutions and large-scale production organization, many enterprises specializing in hydroponic lettuce cultivation in Lac Duong commune, Lam Dong province have rotated harvests in 4 seasons a year, increasing outstanding revenue in the domestic and export markets.

Expanding domestic and export markets

Coming to Langbiang Farm in Lac Duong commune, you can access a modern, interconnected equipment system controlled by digital technology on a total greenhouse area of ​​more than 5 hectares of hydroponic lettuce, growing and harvesting up to 5-6 tons per day. In early winter 2025, the output of hydroponic lettuce exported to Korea, Singapore, Malaysia, and Taiwan accounts for 60%; the remaining 40% is consumed in the domestic market. To maintain the quality of fresh vegetables for a long time for consumers, the farm operates a 1,500 m2 factory for processing, packaging, and transporting within the day to the place of consumption according to the contract, without storing it until the next day.

With more than 5 hectares of cultivation applying digital technology, Langbiang Farm in Lac Duong commune harvests and supplies domestic and foreign markets with 5 - 6 tons of hydroponic lettuce every day.

Director of Langbiang Farm Co., Ltd. Nguyen Quang Khanh said that this is the 6th year the farm has converted the area of ​​vegetable, root and fruit cultivation using geo- and semi-hydroponic methods to specialize in recirculating hydroponic lettuce. After successfully building a model of about 5,000 ^m2 , the farm gradually converted to a total area of ​​5 hectares 4 years later.

In particular, from the completely upgraded technological line, Langbiang Farm has installed a demonstration of recirculating hydroponic lettuce on an area of ​​about 300 m2, located on Xo Viet Nghe Tinh Street, Lang Biang Ward - Da Lat, an agricultural tourism site with a total area of ​​about 6,000 ^m2 . Including a weekly organic market with dozens of stalls of vegetables, tubers, and fruits produced in Lam Dong province, attracting a large number of consumers. Thereby, it also helps customers experience and learn about the technical process of growing recirculating hydroponic lettuce of the farm to research and convert it to suit the cultivated area.

In the same area of ​​Lac Duong commune, Truong Phuc Farm in the winter of 2025 will harvest hydroponic lettuce for export to Korea regularly every 5-6 days, about more than 5 tons. Correspondingly, the output ratio is 50% export and 50% domestic. Mr. To Quang Dung - Director of Truong Phuc Farm Co., Ltd. said that for many years, the farm has maintained the export output of lettuce to Korea in the summer and winter every year, each season exporting 50% of the above output. On a total area of ​​2.5 hectares of greenhouse, 10,000 hydroponic lettuce plants are harvested every day, each plant weighs an average of 250 grams, resulting in a total output of more than 2.5 tons. Particularly in the spring and autumn every year, the farm exports 10-15% of the total output to Korea.

Realizing ecological agriculture adapting to climate change

Director Dung shared: “To stabilize the production of hydroponic lettuce all year round in conjunction with domestic and export contracts, the farm has spent nearly 10 years building and developing. Initially starting on an area of ​​0.3 hectares, every year we evaluate and select the most effective technological solution to expand in each part of the greenhouse, bringing the total area to 2.5 hectares”. Accordingly, the farm strictly adheres to the process of controlling and preventing pathogens from arising in the irrigation system and circulating nutrients through each batch of vegetables produced. At the output stage, the farm always regularly meets the increasing demand for fresh vegetables according to contracts with supermarkets and convenience stores at home and abroad. Recently, another partner from Korea signed a contract to import hydroponic lettuce of the Truong Phuc brand in the spring and summer months every year, with a stable monthly order of about 5 tons. Currently, the farm is speeding up the installation of a new 6,000 m2 greenhouse to meet the export volume under this contract.

Production results associated with expanding the domestic market and exporting hydroponic lettuce mentioned above, Langbiang and Truong Phuc enterprises have contributed to developing more than 107,306 hectares of high-tech production and over 149,700 hectares of safe production by the end of 2025 in Lam Dong province. Thereby, joining hands to realize the goal by 2030, synchronously developing modern agriculture, applying high technology, ecological agriculture adapting to climate change; exploiting and maximizing the potential and advantages of the local agricultural sector.
