Thanks to the assistance of Resolution 69, households in Dong Khe commune, Van Chan district, have invested in cattle farming for higher incomes.

In the first four months of this year, the output of slaughtered meat was estimated at 27,235 tonnes, meeting 40.6% of the local plan for 2023 and growing 31.6% from last year. The total poultry population, meanwhile, stood at over 6.75 million, or 94% of the plan and a 14.4% annual increase.
These results were attributable to Yen Bai's focus on various solutions, such as promoting livestock development through sustainable farming models, developing semi-industrial livestock farming, raising marketable cattle, rebuilding pig and poultry populations, and effectively implementing Resolution 69 of the provincial People's Council on support policies for agro-forestry-fishery development for 2021-2025.
