Tra Linh Commune is located at an altitude of about 1,700m above sea level, possessing ideal natural conditions for growing Ngoc Linh ginseng. Currently, the planned area for ginseng cultivation in the whole commune is up to 7,000ha, one of the largest ginseng growing areas in the country.

Here, Vinsam Quang Nam Company Limited has developed a ginseng garden of about 12 hectares, with ginseng roots that are 8-10 years old. In the cool space under the canopy of the primeval forest, the ginseng beds bloom and produce bright red seeds.
Mr. Bui Van Tan - Director of Vinsam Quang Nam Company Limited said: "We have developed many convenient and easy-to-use processed ginseng products. However, for Ngoc Linh ginseng to truly become a key economic crop, it is necessary for large corporations to invest, expand the deep processing market and stabilize output."
Recently, 8 large enterprises, including THACO Group, BRG... have signed cooperation agreements to invest in developing Ngoc Linh ginseng and medicinal herbs in Da Nang city, opening up new opportunities for Tra Linh - the "kingdom" of Ngoc Linh ginseng.
Mr. Nguyen Hung Anh, Deputy General Director of BRG Group, has twice directly visited Tra Linh commune to survey the field and explore investment opportunities. “The potential for developing medicinal economic resources from Ngoc Linh ginseng is huge, we hope to be able to launch an investment project in the near future, together with the locality to build a national ginseng brand, bringing the product to the world,” Mr. Hung Anh shared.
Tra Linh commune authorities determined that deep processing and building the Ngoc Linh ginseng brand are key steps to increase added value, helping people escape poverty sustainably.
Vice Chairman of Tra Linh Commune People's Committee Tran Ngoc Hien said: "We focus on promoting and inviting businesses and scientists to invest and research in deep processing of ginseng products. When there are high-quality commercial products, the market will expand and people's lives will also improve."

In fact, in Tra Linh, many households participate in growing ginseng under the natural forest canopy, both protecting the forest and developing sustainable livelihoods. Calling on businesses to participate is a strategic direction to connect production with the market, reducing dependence on the form of selling raw ginseng.
Recognized by the World Health Organization (WHO) as one of the four most precious ginsengs in the world, Ngoc Linh ginseng contains more than 50 rare saponins, which have the effect of enhancing immunity, improving health and supporting the treatment of many chronic diseases. However, for Vietnamese ginseng products to reach far, it needs the support of both the public and private sectors.
The development of Ngoc Linh ginseng in Tra Linh is not only a story of a precious plant but also an opportunity to form a medicinal economic ecosystem typical of the mountainous area west of Da Nang. When attracting large corporations to invest in the raw material - processing - distribution area, the ginseng area will become a new economic center associated with the cultural identity, lifestyle and sustainable livelihood of the highland people.
