Japan grows kaoliang in Vietnam
(VOV) - A pilot kaoliang growing project by Japan- wholly invested Sol Holding Vietnam Company is underway in Dong Nai and Dak Nong provinces.
The project showed that kaoliang can grows well producing higher yield, even in severe weather condition in Vietnam, and creating much higher income than paddy, corn and cassava.
Sol Holding Vietnam plans to transfer technology and provide seeds for farmers to help them plant kaoliang on a large scale next year, said the company’s general director Nguyen Thai Son.
