Mr. Nguyen Xuan Lap, Environment – Health – Safety Manager, AES Mong Duong, said: “We are very pleased with the positive results that the project has brought in improving the livelihoods of local communities and helping farmers gain knowledge and skills in biosecure sow production. It also aims to improve people’s quality of life by exploiting the economic, social and environmental benefits of household-scale biogas projects.”
The first phase of the project was implemented in 2021 with 16 farming households. It provided pigs to farmers whose herds had been devastated by African swine fever, supervising their development and growth in partnership with agricultural and veterinary experts.
The project is part of the social impact program of AES Mong Duong.
