(ĐN)- Dong Nai provincial People’s Committee has recently approved three  large-scale field projects in Trang Bom, Vinh Cuu and Dinh Quan districts covering more than 100 hectares.

Particularly, the province will build a 34 ha field for growing cocoa in Dinh Quan with the participation of 114 farmers and a 61 ha field in Vinh Cuu district will be covered by sugarcane.

The province has called on companies that supply seedlings and production materials and buy farm produce to cooperate with agricultural cooperatives and farmers. It has also encouraged businesses to provide loans and asked scientists to advise farmers on cultivation techniques.

According to plan, Dong Nai will zone 19 large-scale fields for crops such as coffee, pepper, rubber, pomelo, banana, durian, etc by 2020.

The large-scale field is a centralised production model that utilises the coordination among farmers, businesses, scientists, and State agencies to facilitate the application of technology in cultivation, thus improving the value of agricultural products and farmers’ income.
