Immediately after harvesting the 2023 rice crop, the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development directed and urged localities to focus on plowing and turning the land. Due to favorable weather, the area of plowing and turning over the land is high (19,320 hectares, reaching 98.3% of the plan), creating favorable conditions for spring rice to grow and develop well. Proactively responding to the scarcity of water resources, some rivers and canals are polluted, irrigation project operators have proactively stored water in the system early, mobilizing maximum capacity of the irrigation systems. The pumping station participated in filling water and synchronously implementing water collection solutions, so by February 2, the whole province basically completed 100% of the area, earlier than expected.
Farmers in An Thi district harvest spring rice
This year's spring rice crop, farmers in Kim Dong district planted more than 3,412 hectares, reaching 106.6% of the plan. By June 16, farmers in the district completed spring rice harvest, with an estimated average yield of 66.4 tons/hectare. Through the district's assessment, the above results showed that the weather was dry at the time of plowing and overturning, so the plowed area reached over 90% of the area that needed to be plowed. Water extraction is convenient, land preparation progress is fast, ensuring the seasonal framework of the province and district. The district continues to support farmers with rice varieties and rat poison according to the province's support policy. The entire district supported more than 19.7 tons of rice seeds and more than 591kg of Antimice 3DP rat poison to facilitate farmers' production.
According to the assessment of the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development, at the end of the season, the whole province cultivated 24,633 hectares, reaching 102% of the plan. Of which, the planted area is 16,948 hectares (2,100 hectares of mechanical transplanting, accounting for 8.5% of the area, 1.5% higher than the same period last year); Direct sowing area is 7,685 hectares. The cultivated area of high-quality rice varieties is 17,194 hectares, accounting for 69.8%, including Hung Yen fragrant sticky rice varieties, all kinds of sticky rice, Dai Thom 8, Tien Hai 1... Cultivated area of high-yielding rice varieties High yield such as Thien Uu 8, TBR225, VNR20... reached 7,439 hectares, accounting for 30.2% of the total cultivated area. In general, spring rice grows and develops well and is slightly infected with pests and diseases.
Spring rice yield in the whole province averages 67-68 quintals/hectare
Implementing the large-scale, concentrated rice production model, the whole province organized and built 71 concentrated rice production models (5 hectares or more) with a total area of 1,427 hectares ( an increase of 26 models and 497 hectares compared to the spring crop of 2023), mainly cultivating high quality rice varieties in the form of production associated with product consumption. Concentrated production models have created favorable conditions for applying mechanization, saving input material costs, bringing efficiency from 1.3 to 1.5 times higher than mass production. .
In order for the spring rice crop to achieve high productivity and quality, pest and disease prevention is carried out well by specialized industries, localities and farmers right from the beginning of the crop. The Department of Agriculture and Rural Development has directed relevant specialized agencies to coordinate with localities to organize 2 rounds of concentrated rat extermination throughout the province. At the end of the rat extermination rounds, the number of dead rats was estimated to reach over 5 million. The prevention of harmful pests and diseases such as leaf blast disease, sheath blight, small leaf rollers, brown planthoppers - white-backed planthoppers is carried out promptly and effectively, reducing costs and labor of farmers, contributing to improving productivity and quality of rice. Through preliminary assessment by the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development, spring rice yield averages 67-68 quintals/hectare.
