This is a model of cow raising on bio-buffer of Khong Minh Tuan, a farmer in Nghia Hung commune, Vinh Tuong district, Vinh Phuc province.

The bio-buffer is newly-applied in the province. It is made of straw and rice husks mixed with probiotics.

Tuan’s family began raising cows more than one year ago, with over 100 cows. At that time, he had to hire five workers to clean the barn two times per day because the volume of cow dung was large. Since he applied the bio-buffer for cow raising, the barn is always dry and hygienic.
