Billionaire Hai Duong has been running a chicken farm for over 20 years, and in 10 years has increased the scale 5 times.
Passing through the lush green rice fields, stretching far and wide, we came to the Quyen Coconut Poultry Breeding Company of Hai Duong billionaire farmer Pham Dinh Dua, in Hau hamlet, Thuong Bi village, Yet Kieu commune (Gia Loc district, Hai Duong province).
Mentioning Mr. Dua in Thuong Bi village, everyone knows. According to the local people, Mr. Dua is one of the pioneers in "establishing a career" in animal husbandry in Thuong Bi village.
Mr. Dua's house model is the first and most developed livestock farm in this land.
Our first impression of Mr. Dua was his neat appearance and his friendly, humorous way of speaking. Inviting us to a cup of tea, Mr. Dua told us about his fate in the livestock industry: “My wife and I switched to livestock farming thanks to the guidance of my father-in-law, my father-in-law.
In the past, both of us were tailors, and our business was quite good. But in 1999, cheap clothes flooded in, and people no longer preferred tailor-made clothes like before. Seeing that, my wife's family suggested switching to producing breeding chickens, which is bringing in a good income."
Switching from tailoring to raising breeding chickens, Mr. Dua encountered many difficulties due to his lack of experience. However, by studying hard and having his father-in-law "holding his hand to show him the way", Mr. Dua gradually learned how to choose eggs and incubate them so they hatch...

Seeing that the direction still had a lot of potential, Mr. Dua invested in an incubator to increase capacity. Later, to meet market demand, he continuously researched and improved the incubator, installing new technology systems.
After many years of building reputation, his family's Dua Quyen chicken brand has been recognized in the market. In 2022, Mr. Dua established Dua Quyen Poultry Breeding Company Limited.
Compared to 2015, when Mr. Dua was honored as an Outstanding Vietnamese Farmer, up to now, Mr. Dua's livestock farming model has grown 5 times in scale.
Dua Quyen Poultry Breeding Company, of which Mr. Dua is the Director, has two chicken breeding farms, with an area of 17,000m2. It is expected that if chicken prices remain stable, Mr. Dua will continue to expand the company, adding 5,000m2 of farm area.
With a scale of raising 30,000 parent chickens, Mr. Dua's company has automated the incubation and feeding stages, installed fan and lighting systems. Currently, the company has 13 incubators, which can incubate 20,000 eggs/machine/time. Each month, Mr. Dua exports 10 batches of breeding chickens, each batch from 26,000 - 27,000 chicks.
To improve efficiency, Dua Quyen Poultry Breeding Company has proactively applied scientific and technological advances, automating many stages in the process of raising breeding chickens. Photo: Vu Ly.
The favorable development of Mr. Dua's house model has attracted many households to Hau hamlet, Thuong Bi village to open livestock farms.
Gradually, Thuong Bi village in particular and Yet Kieu commune in general have become a famous poultry farming area with large-scale farms of thousands and tens of thousands of square meters.
Chicken prices drop sharply, Hai Duong billionaire does not lose money thanks to building exclusive brand of chicken breeds
Since 2020, due to the impact of COVID-19, the price of broiler chickens has dropped sharply. Many commercial chicken farm owners are struggling to find outlets. Even those who specialize in selling breeding chickens like Mr. Dua have been severely affected.

Mr. Dua said: I produce on a large scale, our facility produces tens of thousands of chicks a month. I have to sell them for 6,500 VND/chick to break even. However, the market price for a long time was only 4,000 VND/chick. After COVID-19, the price of chicks is still not good. It was not until the last 3 chick sales that I started to make a profit.
During the period of sharp decline in chicken prices, the "secret" that helped billionaire farmers in Hai Duong maintain their capital lies in their exclusive brand of chicken breeds.
"I have an advantage in that I have already built an exclusive brand of chicken breeds. Since long ago, I have determined that if I only raise normal chicken breeds, it will be difficult for me to go far in this market.
In 2006, I started crossbreeding a new breed of chicken: Luong Phuong hybrid fighting chicken to promote the advantages of fighting chicken and Luong Phuong chicken," said Mr. Dua.
By collecting and researching himself, Mr. Dua successfully crossbred the Luong Phuong hybrid fighting chicken. Not stopping at the initial success, Mr. Dua continued to select and breed new chickens.
After 20 years, his chicken breed has unified the advantages of fast growth, less disease, and beautiful appearance. The quality of the new breed of chicken meat is also higher than that of the normal breed, the meat is firmer and has a richer flavor.

The new chicken breed was popular after being introduced to the market. In particular, after 2015, Mr. Dua was honored to receive the title of Outstanding Vietnamese Farmer, and his business became even more favorable. Seizing this opportunity, Mr. Dua promoted links and cooperation with large farm owners.

Mr. Dua analyzed: I have the advantage of exclusive chicken breeds, so I have initially connected with many big partners.
But to get them to cooperate long-term, we also have to ensure that the chicks are healthy, disease-free, and of good quality. My company strictly controls the chicks from the selection of parent chicks, the incubation process to the vaccination and care stages before selling the chicks.
"I also have a partner support program. When customers need it urgently, I am ready to support the breeding stock. The price of breeding chickens in the market is high, but the price of breeding chickens at my house is still stable. So on the contrary, when the price of breeding chickens drops sharply like the time of 4,000 VND/chicken, many farm owners are willing to come back to buy breeding chickens from me at break-even price," Mr. Dua added.
In addition, due to the initiative in the source of breeds, Mr. Dua can reduce and restore the herd according to the market. Thanks to that, although the price of chickens on the market fluctuates a lot, Mr. Dua's model of raising breeding chickens is still maintained and developed well. The investment capital in Dua Quyen Poultry Breeding Company Limited has increased over the years, reaching 20 billion VND to date.
Talking to Dan Viet reporter, Mr. Le Cong Am, Chairman of the Farmers' Association of Yet Kieu commune (Gia Loc district, Hai Duong province) said: "Mr. Pham Dinh Dua's model not only brings high economic efficiency but also contributes positively to the movement "Farmers compete in production, good business, unite to help each other get rich and reduce poverty sustainably" of Yet Kieu commune. Mr. Dua's company is creating jobs for many farmer members with an income of 10-11 million VND/person/month, good benefits and treatment...".
