Clean agricultural model

TQO - Starting a farming business at the age of 45, Nguyen Dinh Tam, Director of Tam Huong Agricultural and Service Cooperative, Hong Thai Commune (Na Hang District) is realising the "farm to fork" model to serve the needs of consumers.

In 2017, Tam's family opened Tam Huong shop selling handmade products. In 2018, the Government implemented the OCOP program - One product per commune, he and his wife grasped the trend, actively researched and connected products with OCOP-oriented origin and origin in the province.

Accordingly, he came up with the idea of sustainable agricultural development with the "farm to fork" formula, also known as the 3F (Feed - Farm - Food) model. This is a closed and safe food production model from raising and growing on the farm to processing and consuming products.

Along with the organic vegetable product was grown under the 3F formula, in 2020, he realised the model of raising indigenous black pigs and wild boars in order to proactively use clean and standard ingredients to process local products with Tam Huong brand such as dried pork, fermented pork, etc.
