The Central Highlands provinces of Dak Lak, Lam Dong, Dak Nong and Gia Lai plan to replace an additional 19,224 hectares of coffee trees to improve quality and boost productivity of the sector during this year’s rainy season.
Since 2010, the region has replanted and transplanted coffee trees on over 61,000 hectares.
Apart from applying farming techniques guided by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, local farmers and businesses have been using high-yield seedlings on a larger scale.
The region is also calling for incentives for coffee tree replacement in terms of financial and technical assistance and infrastructure facility improvement to contribute to the sustainable development of the sector.
