Coming to Chung Chinh village, visiting the pear garden of more than 1 hectare of Mr. Mua A Cau's family, one of the first households in the commune to plant VH6 pear variety since 2017. Mr. Cau said: VH6 pear variety has the ability to grow strongly, has few pests and diseases, suitable for the climate and soil of Ta Xua highlands. The care process is not too hard, just need to prune branches, fertilize and prevent pests and diseases properly for the tree to grow stably. With more than 400 pear trees, this year's crop is estimated to harvest more than 3 tons of fruit, selling from 20,000 to 25,000 VND/kg. After deducting expenses, the profit is more than 60 million VND.
Mr. Song A Mang, also in Ta Xua village, shared: In 2023, his family was selected by the Department of Agriculture and Environment to participate in the grafted pear tree planting project, and was supported with 200 seedlings planted on an area of 5,000 m² of hilly land. With meticulous technical guidance from soil preparation, fertilization, and pruning, after nearly two years, the tree grew well, nearly 2 meters tall, and hopefully will start bearing fruit in the third year.
With the initial economic benefits, more and more households in the commune have converted some ineffective crop areas to pear cultivation. Up to now, the whole commune has more than 70 hectares of VH6 pear trees, of which nearly 10 hectares have begun to yield harvest, mainly concentrated in Chung Chinh and Ta Xua villages.
Mr. Mua A Ho, Chairman of Ta Xua Commune People's Committee, said: Since switching to growing fruit trees such as plums and pears, especially the VH6 pear variety, many households have had an income of 40-50 million VND/crop. In the coming time, the Commune People's Committee will continue to coordinate with specialized agencies to build concentrated pear growing areas; support varieties and create conditions for households to borrow capital to invest in production; organize training on care techniques, and connect product consumption markets for people. Along with expanding the area, the commune focuses on increasing product value and linking it with the development of agricultural experience tourism , creating sustainable livelihoods and increasing income for people.
