Farming green, helping protect the environment

Saturday, June 4, 2016

Anh, 12, lives with his parents and two siblings in a coastal area where the sandy land used to be unproductive. With World Vision’s support Anh’s parents, Dzung and Hong, received training to practice sustainable agriculture with ecological farming.

They have been expanding their farm by raising pigs, ducks, and fish. They also planted trees, which stabilizes the land and acts as a windbreak. The family produces their own biogas too.

Such livelihood supports enable Ahn’s parents not only to support their family, but also to pay for their children’s education. Currently, more than 300 families use biogas for cooking in Anh’s community.
