The family of Mr. Pham Quang Duong in Song Ma district, Son La province, has successfully cultivated a large garden of longan trees, with this year's harvest expected to exceed 3 tons. The longan trees have become a crucial part of poverty reduction and economic development in the border area. Local farmers and cooperatives have joined together to produce, build brands, and export longan products, with an output of about 350-400 tons of longan this year, including 200 tons for export. Song Ma district is preparing for its first container shipments of longan in 2023, targeting the Chinese, European, and UK markets.
