Economic efficiency in application of advanced technical process to produce some crops in Nam Dong dist rict, Thua Thien Hue province

Abstract

     The Good Agricultural Practice (GAP) for fruit and vegetable farming is a set of consolidated safety and quality standards. The research was conducted in Nam Dong district, Thua Thien Hue province to evaluate the current situation and propose solutions to improve the production efficiency of Ariu chili, bananas, pineapples, Homalomena occulta, and local azalea flowers. The research findings show that in Nam Dong district, when Ariu chili, bananas, and pineapples are grown according to the technical guidelines of VIETGAP standards, Homalomena Occulta in accordance with those of the University of Agriculture and Forestry - Hue University and local azalea with those of Center for flowers, ornamentals research and development - Fruit and vegetable research Institute instead of traditional farming methods, they exhibit healthier growth, fewer pests and diseases, and higher yields. The average diameter of the azalea flowers is 6.29 cm, while the yields of the models for cultivating chili, bananas, pineapples, and Homalomena occulta are 1.66, 12.59, 28.9, and 18.09 tones per hectare, respectively. Therefore, the economic effectiveness of producing chili, bananas, pineapples, Homalomena occulta, and local azalea flowers with the application of the advanced technical process is higher.
