NZ helps poor farmers in Binh Dinh province

The government of New Zealand has decided to help central coastal Binh Dinh province to carry out a project on linking poor farmers to markets, said Nguyen Thi Thanh Binh, Vice Chairman of the province.

The project has a total capital of US$2.14 million, of which the NZ government finances more than US$1.7 million and the province contributes the rest.

It aims to help the agriculture business sector in Binh Dinh province to improve its capacity, thus bringing sustainable socio-economic benefits to poor households.

The four-year project includes supporting Tay Son and Tuy Hoa districts in increasing safe vegetable volumes, providing marketing opportunities for small coconut tree-growing households in Hoai Nhon and Phu My districts, improving the efficiency of small and large-scaled cattle breeding systems, and effectively linking poor farmers to markets and project managers.
