High-tech farms for Đà Nẵng
The central city of Đà Nẵng plans seven suburban communes in Hòa Vang District for high-tech farms on a total area of 540ha – a crucial step to boost high quality and safe agriculture. The director the city’s agriculture and rural development, Nguyễn Phú Ban, said the plan is part of a strategy to develop Đà Nẵng as a safe tourism destination, as well as a centre of nano-industry and world-class high-tech farms. Ban said the city has allocated 130ha for safe vegetable farming and 310ha for aquaculture and livestock. “The city has recognised 12 farms with certifications of safety and quality, as well as brand names in La Hường and Túy Loan villages. These farms’ products are eligible for sale at major supermarkets in the city,” Ban said.
