Son La enjoys bumper crop of early-ripening plums
Phien Khoai commune in the northern province of Son La
yielded a bumper crop of early-ripening plums in the 2026 season. The locality
currently has over 2,600 hectares of plum orchards, with the acreage for
off-season plums accounting for over 20%. The application of suitable
cultivation techniques for off-season, early-ripening yielding has helped
farmers increase the produce value and reduce the time pressure of produce
sales, thus earn higher benefits. VNA Photo: Quang Quyết
