The People's Committee of Khanh Hoa province recently issued a decision on the implementation of an action plan to promote the application of integrated plant health management (IPHM) on the main crops and key crops in the province in the period of 2023 - 2030.

Accordingly, Khanh Hoa province sets a target that by 2030, over 70% of communes will have a core group of farmers with knowledge, skills and effective application of IPHM. They also have the ability to guide other farmers to apply IPHM, evaluate the effectiveness and disseminate the results to the community.

Strive to have more than 80% of rice, vegetable and fruit areas apply IPHM; 70% of the province's key crop area serves agricultural restructuring with the application of IPHM. This includes the evaluation of the effectiveness and dissemination of the results to the community. Thereby reducing the amount of pesticides and chemical fertilizers by 30%; over 90% of communes collect pesticide packaging after use in accordance with regulations...
