Fertiliser factory to begin trial operation
Ninh Binh Fertiliser Factory will start trial operations in April 2011 and official operation next October, according to the Viet Nam Chemical Group.
The group said it has invested VND5.51 trillion (US$290,000) over two years into the construction of the factory.
"This project is very important for the future of agricultural production. All parties concerned with the project must focus on completing the construction of the factory so it can be put into effective operation," said Deputy Prime Minister, Hoang Trung Hai.
The Ministry of Industry and Trade must continue to monitor progress and pay attention to the quality of construction, Hai said. Meanwhile, the Viet Nam Development Bank should ensure capital is available for the project.
The factory will be equipped with cutting edge technology so it is important that the staff are trained correctly, he said.
When the factory goes into operation, it will churn out 560,000 tonnes of urea fertiliser each year to distribute throughout the domestic agricultural sector to ensure food safety.
The factory together with Phu My nitrogenous fertiliser factory and the expanded Ha Bac fertiliser factory will meet 60-70 per cent of domestic demand for the fertiliser.
A total of VND11 trillion ($579,000) has been invested into the project which started in 2008 in Ninh Phuc Industrial Zone in the northern province of Ninh Binh.
