Over VND2 billion granted to support Shan tea development in Binh An commune

On October 6, the Institute for Cooperative Economic Development under the Vietnam Cooperative Alliance organized a handover and acceptance ceremony for a production support project benefiting Shan Khau Mut tea growers in Binh An commune.

Leaders of the Institute for Cooperative Economics (Vietnam Cooperative Alliance) and the Provincial Cooperative Alliance present organic fertilizer to Shan Khau Mut tea growers in Binh An commune.

The project provided support to 54 poor and near-poor households, as well as ethnic minority families cultivating Shan Khau Mut tea, with 88 tons of organic fertilizer and biological products covering an area of 22 hectares. The total funding exceeded VND2 billion, sourced from the Vietnam Cooperative Alliance’s National Target Program on Sustainable Poverty Reduction.

The project aims to enhance the productivity and quality of Shan Khau Mut tea, enabling local farmers to better care for their crops, increase the economic value of Binh An’s Shan Khau Mut tea products, expand their market reach, and ultimately increase household income.
