Dare to change

Having been involved in coffee cultivation for many years, Ms. Ka Hong's family (in Da Nung B village), like many other households, has always faced difficulties due to fluctuating market prices and unstable production efficiency. Concerned about finding a new direction to develop her family's economy , she decided to convert a portion of her production area to mulberry cultivation and silkworm farming. In the early days of this new model, she encountered many difficulties due to a lack of experience and technical knowledge. However, with determination, she proactively participated in training courses and learned from successful silkworm farmers both within and outside the locality to apply to her production.

Thanks to diligent learning and gradual accumulation of experience, the family's mulberry cultivation and silkworm rearing model has become increasingly stable. Income from silkworm cocoons has provided the family with additional resources to invest in expanding production and improving their quality of life. Ms. Ka Hong shared: “Initially, I was worried because I had never raised silkworms before. But through learning from experienced people and receiving training from the local authorities, I gradually grasped the care process. Currently, mulberry cultivation and silkworm rearing provides a more stable income than before, allowing the family to confidently develop economically.”

Besides mulberry cultivation and silkworm rearing, many people in the commune are exploring and boldly choosing new production directions to increase the economic value of the same cultivated land. One typical model is the grey oyster mushroom farm of Mr. Hoang Van Trung (Dam Pao village). Driven by the desire to create a stable income for his family, Mr. Trung spent a lot of time researching mushroom cultivation techniques and visiting successful models both within and outside the locality. Mr. Hoang Van Trung said: “In the early years, I faced many failures due to a lack of technical expertise. At times, the mushrooms were infected with disease, resulting in low yields. However, I always strived to learn, update my knowledge, and gradually improve the production process. Currently, the model is stable and brings quite good economic results.”
