The district has built 20 orange production groups according to VietGAP standards, with a total area of over 806 hectares with 380 participating households. Ham Yen district's organic orange production area currently has 15.8 hectares of 12 households in 4 production groups in Tan Thanh, Nhan Muc communes and Tan Yen town.
