Dong Nai: Developing pig herds associated with environmental protection

Dong Nai is the leading locality in the country in pig farming, with a total herd of over 2.6 million pigs, accounting for nearly 10% of the total pig herd in the country. In order to develop sustainably, the Department of Agriculture and Environment of Dong Nai province is working closely to promote modern farming models, ensuring biosafety and environmental protection.

According to the Department of Agriculture and Environment, farms concentrated in Trang Bom, Long Thanh, and Thong Nhat have applied a closed farming model, using high technology such as closed barn systems, automating care processes, and monitoring animal health. These technologies help increase productivity, reduce disease, and ensure pork quality.

Along with increasing production, Dong Nai also focuses on strict environmental control. Large farms are required to invest in modern waste treatment systems, reusing waste to produce organic fertilizers and biogas. This not only reduces pollution but also contributes positively to the development of a circular economy.

By 2030, Dong Nai aims to increase its total pig herd to 3 million, while developing environmentally friendly organic farming models. A representative of the Department of Agriculture and Environment said the province will continue to support farmers in applying advanced technical standards to meet domestic and export demand.

With synchronous efforts, Dong Nai is affirming its pioneering role in developing a modern and sustainable pig farming industry, meeting market demands and harmoniously linking with the goal of environmental protection, reported the Environmental Economics Magazine .
