Bat Xat: The area of ​​​​canna plants increased 2.5 times compared to 2024

According to the Department of Agriculture and Environment of Bat Xat district, in 2025, the area of ​​​​canarium in the district will reach 407 hectares, an increase of more than 245 hectares (equivalent to an increase of 2.5 times) compared to 2024.

Some localities with large planting areas are: Den Thang 250 ha, A Mu Sung 65 ha, Ban Xeo 50 ha, Nam Chac 15 ha, Coc My and A Lu each commune 10 ha, Pa Cheo 7 ha...

In 2025, the area of ​​​​arrowroot in Bat Xat district will increase 2.5 times compared to the previous year.

In recent years, the people of Bat Xat district have increasingly planted arrowroot because it is suitable for the climate and soil conditions, giving high productivity, from 25 - 30 tons/ha. With the current selling price of about 2,500 VND - 3,000 VND/kg of fresh tubers, it brings in an income of 62.5 to 75 million VND/ha for growers.

In particular, in 2025, the planting area will increase sharply due to the previous harvest, when the cassava tubers had a good harvest and good prices. In addition to the cooperatives in the district, many traders and cooperatives outside the locality have signed purchase contracts, creating a stable output for this tuber.

Officials of Ban Xeo commune guide people to take care of arrowroot plants.

It is known that in 2024, the whole district planted more than 162 hectares of cassava, harvested more than 3,568 tons, bringing in revenue of more than 12.8 billion VND.

Galangal is the main crop of Bat Xat district. To sustainably develop this crop, in the coming time, the district will continue to propagate and mobilize people to convert ineffective corn and cassava growing areas to growing galangal; organize training on planting and care techniques, call on businesses to cooperate in production, in order to improve product quality and value, helping people feel secure in production.
