PHƯƠNG ANH |

Can Tho - Yield over 7 tons/ha, purchase price of 9,000 VND/kg helps farmers growing ST25 rice in Dai Tam to be excited, profit reaches about 30 million VND/ha.

Vụ Đông Xuân 2026 tại khụ vực Đại Tâm thuộc phường Mỹ Xuyên (TP Cần Thơ) khép lại trong sự phấn khởi. Những cánh đồng lúa giống ST25 cấp xác nhận trải dài ngút ngàn, báo hiệu một mùa thu hoạch bội thu.
The 2026 Winter-Spring crop in the Dai Tam area of My Xuyen ward (Can Tho City) closed with excitement. The ST25 certified rice fields stretched endlessly, signaling a bumper harvest season.
Nhiều nông dân chia sẻ, nhờ thời tiết thuận lợi và kiểm soát dịch bệnh tốt, năng suất bình quân năm nay đạt trên 7 tấn/ha.
Many farmers shared that thanks to favorable weather and good disease control, the average yield this year reached over 7 tons/ha.
Ông Trung Ký Huốn (phường Mỹ Xuyên, TP Cần Thơ) cho biết đây là vụ đạt năng suất cao nhất trong gần 10 năm gia đình ông gắn bó với giống lúa này. “Cùng diện tích đó, những năm trước bình quân khoảng 52–53 bao lúa, năm nay lên tới 78 bao, tính ra hơn 3 tấn. Giá 9.000 đồng/kg là có lời, bà con ai cũng mừng“, ông Huốn chia sẻ
Mr. Trung Ky Huon (My Xuyen ward, Can Tho city) said that this is the highest-yield crop in nearly 10 years that his family has been attached to this rice variety. "With an area of 4,500m2, in previous years the average was about 600kg/1,000m2 (53 - 54 bags of rice), this year it has increased to more than 800kg (78 bags of rice), calculated at more than 3.5 tons. The price of 9,000 VND/kg is profitable, everyone is happy," Mr. Huon shared.
Ông Hứa Thành Nghĩa – Giám đốc HTX Nông nghiệp Nghĩa Thắng – cho biết, HTX hiện có hơn 100ha chuyên sản xuất giống ST24, ST25 cấp xác nhận. Nhờ tuân thủ đúng kỹ thuật, năng suất bình quân đạt trên 7 tấn/ha. Với giá 9.000 đồng/kg, sau khi trừ chi phí, lợi nhuận đạt khoảng 30 triệu đồng/ha. Bình quân 2 vụ/năm, nông dân có thể lãi 50–60 triệu đồng/ha; hộ sản xuất tốt đạt 65–70 triệu đồng/ha.
Mr. Hua Thanh Nghia - Director of Nghia Thang Agricultural Cooperative - said that the cooperative currently has more than 100 hectares specializing in producing certified ST24 and ST25 varieties. This crop, the average yield reached over 7 tons/ha. With a price of 9,000 VND/kg, after deducting costs, the profit reached about 30 million VND/ha. On average, 2 crops/year, farmers can make a profit of 50-60 million VND/ha; good production households reach 65-70 million VND/ha.
Ông Lâm Văn Hùng cho biết, với 5.000m² với năng suất đạt trên 700kg/1.000m², cao hơn mặt bằng chung. “Điều quan trọng nhất là được bao tiêu ổn định. Dù thu hoạch trước hay sau, doanh nghiệp vẫn giữ nguyên giá. Không còn cảnh lo bị ép giá khi vào cao điểm”, ông nói.
Mr. Lam Van Hung said that with 5,000m2 of rice, the yield reaches over 700kg/1,000m2, higher than the general level. "The most important thing is to be guaranteed stable consumption. Whether harvested before or after, businesses still maintain the same price. There is no longer a scene of being pressured on prices during peak seasons," he said.
Không chỉ nông dân phấn khởi khi năng suất cao, nhiều lao động nông thôn cũng có nguồn thu nhập từ công việc thu hoạch, vận chuyển lúa.
Not only farmers are excited about high productivity, but many rural workers also have more jobs, increasing income from the stages of harvesting, loading and unloading and transporting rice.
Lúa
After-harvest rice is transported by workers to the roadside gathering point, waiting for vehicles to arrive to transport it to the factory.
Từ năm 2004, khi các dòng lúa ST còn xa lạ với thị trường, nông dân nơi đây đã mạnh dạn đưa giống mới vào sản xuất. Đến nay hơn 3/4 diện tích lúa ở Đại Tâm đã chuyển sang canh tác các dòng ST, chủ yếu là ST24 và ST25. Có thời điểm diện tích liên kết sản xuất giống vượt 500ha, cung ứng hơn 3.000 tấn lúa giống mỗi năm.
Mr. Nghia said that since 2004, when ST rice lines were still unfamiliar to the market, farmers here boldly introduced new varieties into production. Up to now, more than 3/4 of the rice area in Dai Tam has switched to cultivating ST lines, mainly ST24 and ST25. At times, the area of enterprise-to-enterprise seed production links exceeded 500ha, supplying more than 3,000 tons of rice seeds each year.
Theo ông Nghĩa, sản xuất lúa giống đòi hỏi sự tỉ mỉ cao hơn lúa thương phẩm, từ khâu làm đất, xuống giống đến chăm sóc, khử lẫn để bảo đảm độ thuần. Sau hơn 20 năm, địa phương đã hình thành chuỗi liên kết khép kín từ sản xuất đến tiêu thụ. “Canh tác giống xác nhận gắn với liên kết bền vững cùng doanh nghiệp giúp nông dân nâng cao thu nhập rõ rệt, nhiều hộ từ nghèo đã vươn lên khá giả”, ông Nghĩa khẳng định.
According to Mr. Nghia, after more than 20 years, the locality has formed a closed chain of links from production to consumption. "Certified seed cultivation associated with sustainable linkages with businesses helps farmers significantly increase income, and many households have risen from poverty to well-being," Mr. Nghia affirmed.
