According to Mr. Doan Van Tai, Director of Tan Dat Cooperative, the model is being implemented to transform production methods towards sustainability, reduce agricultural inputs, and contribute to achieving the goal of developing high-quality rice raw material areas in line with the orientation of "1 million hectares of low-emission rice".

A representative from Southern Fertilizer Joint Stock Company stated that applying the new farming process significantly reduces the cost of fertilizers, pesticides, and labor compared to traditional methods, while maintaining productivity and economic efficiency.
