Tridge summary

In 2024, the National Target Program for Socio-Economic Development of Ethnic Minorities and Mountainous Areas in Vietnam provided 100 breeding chickens and all necessary feed to 18 households in the poverty-stricken Cu Le commune, as part of a wider initiative to support 180 poor and near-poor households across Na Ri district. This initiative, which has seen the chickens grow well and bring significant additional income, aims to alleviate poverty through sustainable farming and economic development. The program has been praised for its comprehensive support, including the supply of breeds, technical guidance, and the purchase of products, ensuring a closed loop from breeding to consumption and preventing the selling of breeds and feed for quick cash. The initial results show that the households have effectively cared for the chickens, indicating a positive outlook for the project's continuation.
