"Soil "diseases" not only reduce rice productivity and quality, but also directly impact the income and livelihoods of millions of farmers. Therefore, the "Green Journey" of Binh Dien Fertilizer Joint Stock Company is not only a program but also a long-term commitment of Binh Dien in working with farmers to green rice production, towards emission reduction and sustainable development", Mr. Ngo Van Dong - General Director of Binh Dien Fertilizer Joint Stock Company affirmed.

The program is built on the successful foundation of Smart Rice Cultivation Adapting to Climate Change that Binh Dien has persistently implemented since 2016. The program's consistent philosophy is the value chain: Healthy Soil - Healthy Crops - Green Products - Green Consumption, in which "Healthy Soil" is considered the starting point and also the decisive factor for all changes.

Not only stopping at supplying fertilizers, Binh Dien is directly participating in the process of transforming production models, contributing to the creation of green, modern and environmentally responsible agriculture . The close coordination between enterprises - the state - scientists - cooperatives - farmers is the foundation that creates strength for the "Green Journey".

"Green Journey" is also Binh Dien's commitment to coordinate with the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development to implement national goals: Project of 1 million hectares of high-quality, low-emission rice Project of reducing emissions in crop cultivation for the period 2025-2035 National green growth strategy to 2050

Binh Dien's Bio Buffalo Head: Technological solutions for green agriculture

The key solution to the process of making healthy soil is to choose the right fertilizer, rich in nutrients and protect the environment. Accordingly, Binh Dien has launched the Dau Trau Bio product line including Dau Trau Bio-Calcium, Bio Lua 1 and Bio Lua 2. All products apply advanced spore-forming microorganism coating technology, helping microorganisms survive persistently in adverse conditions and only become active when encountering a suitable environment.

When introduced into the soil, the beneficial microorganisms in the product help to quickly decompose straw, limit organic poisoning; improve soil pH, reduce acidity; increase absorption capacity so that the soil retains nutrients better and adjust the Ca/Mg balance to help restore soil health. As a result, farmers can reduce the amount of chemical fertilizers used, while reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

The results of the model in An Giang showed many positive signs: soil pH increased significantly, the amount of pure nitrogen was reduced by about 35 kg/ha, rice yield increased by 550 kg/ha and average profit increased by about 8.5 million VND/ha. These are convincing evidences that soil improvement is not only good for the environment but also brings clear economic value to farmers.

During the 2025–2026 Winter-Spring crop, Binh Dien plans to organize at least 50 workshops in the Mekong Delta, the Eastern, Central and Central Highlands regions, directly reaching at least 5,000 farmers. At each workshop, the program will select farmers to join in building practical demonstration models right in their fields. From these models, success stories will be recorded and spread for replication on a wider scale. The program will continue to expand to key rice growing areas in the Northern region.
