With sandy soil characteristics, very suitable for mulberry trees, for about 10 years now, in Xuan Trung and Xuan My hamlets, Nghi Duc commune (Vinh city), people have switched to growing mulberry trees to supply the market. Photo: Thanh Phuc Strawberry season starts in March and lasts until mid-April. Photo: Thanh Phuc This year, the weather is favorable, the sun is warm, so the mulberry trees bear a lot of big and juicy fruit. Photo: Thanh Phuc This is just the beginning of the season, however, everyone here is rushing to get into the season. Because in addition to the high selling price, if the strawberries are ripe and not picked in time, they will fall and be crushed. Photo: Thanh Phuc
The strawberries are small and easily bruised, so growers have to pick them gently by hand. Photo: Thanh Phuc Strawberry picking is quite hard work and can only be done between 9am and 5pm. This is the driest time, so the strawberries do not get waterlogged and are not damaged.

Growing 40 mulberry trees for fruit in a garden area of nearly 1 sao, each tree yields an average of 50-70 kg/crop, also bringing a good income for Mrs. Pham Thi Ky in Xuan Trung hamlet.

Photo: Thanh Phuc When ripe, the mulberry is dark red or black; sweet and sour taste and very juicy. Mulberries are sweet, cool, have many uses in health care and beauty, and are popular with consumers. Customers buy mulberries to soak in wine, make syrup, soft drinks... so consumption is relatively convenient. Photo: Thanh Phuc
