The agricultural officer of Son Duong Sugar and Sugarcane Joint Stock Company evaluates the quality of sugarcane variety KK3 in Trai Mit Hamlet, Hao Phu Commune.

In the crop year 2019-2020, the company has proactively replaced old sugarcane varieties with those of higher quality such as KK3, LK9211, and QT1.

To date, the whole district has planted 300 hectares of sugarcane variety KK3, 250 hectares of LK9211, and 50 ha of QT1, mostly in the communes of Trung Yen, Dai Phu, and Tam Da.

In addition, with an aim of increasing sugarcane productivity, the company has applied the “ring-pit” method of sugarcane cultivation across 15 hectares of sugarcane in the communes of Binh Yen and Thuong Am. This is considered to be a good model which stimulates sugarcane growth.

Thanks to the district's supportive policy for developing of the sugarcane’s intensive farming areas, the company will continue enhancing mechanisation in their production by putting sugar cane harvesting machines and aerial spraying in order to reduce labour for farmers.
