A project that aims to boost the quality of Da Lat flowers with the hands of Japanese experts has just kicked off.
A project to popularize the usage of Japanese technologies for the development of high-quality flower production went into operation in Da Lat city, Lam Dong province yesterday.
The VND21 billion (US$903,000) project was funded by the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA).
Within the project, Japan’s Himeji Flowers Auction Co., Ltd will partner with Da Lat city authorities to establish a flower research and breeding centre, which includes a laboratory and a 2,000 square meter agricultural classroom.
From now to February 2019, Japanese experts will visit Xuan Tho district, Da Lat city to offer a training course for local farmers on propagating seedlings and growing daisy and dianthus flowers.
They will also share their experience with local agricultural workers and farmers on how to select varieties for propagation as well as on farming techniques, pest management, and post harvest technologies.
The project aims to boost the quality of Da Lat flowers and increase their competitiveness on the international market.
Ton Thien San, chairman of the Da Lat People’s Committee, said the project would last two years. After the period, all the facilities and equipment will be handled to Da Lat city for further management and operation.
