4. Project context and problem analysis
Forests in Cao Bang generally and communes in Phia Den-Nguyen Binh district in particular have potentialities for economic development. The atmosphere in this area is unique compared to others in Cao Bang province, with the average temperature at 180 and 1500m to 1931m height above the sea level. There are many kinds of traditional herb medicines growing naturally in this area such as Rhizoma Polygonati, Achyranthes bidentata Blume, Panax notoginseng, Anoechilus... However, the herb harvesting practice of local residents is not sustainable, and people have not got any ideas about seedling or planting and developing some of these precious herbs. The analysis of chemical elements, seedling or transplanting, and processing technologies of these herbs have not been adequately carried out. In addition, there has not been a traditional herb farming model producing herb medicine to meet local inhabitants' needs.
Therefore, the Agricultural and Aquatic Extension Center proposes to establish the “Traditional herb medicine model” in Thanh Cong and Phan Thanh communes, Nguyen Binh district.
In the province, Cao Bang Seed and Seedlings Joint Stock Company has carried out a project on “Establishment a model of advanced technology application in traditional herb medicine plantation and post-harvesting to produce commercial products in Nguyen Binh, Cao Bang”.
