However, Mr. Trach said, the most difficult thing is that they can not yet make use of the Vocational Training Center of the Provincial FU. In this regard, the FU has asked the leaders of Vinh Long province to support many times but has not been able to solve it. In addition, funding from the Farmers Support Fund is still low.
Speaking at the meeting, Vice Chairwoman of VNFU Cao Xuan Thu Van hoped that in the last months of the year, the Provincial FU would try to fulfill the targets assigned by VNFU. The difficulties presented by the Provincial FU, what contents are within the capacity of the Provincial FU, and the contents beyond their ability, they shall be specifically reported to VNFU.
Regarding the funding source of the Provincial Farmers' Support Fund, Vice Chairwoman of the VNFU Cao Xuan Thu Van directed the leaders of the FU to try to demand the leaders of the Provincial People's Committee and the Vinh Long Provincial Party Committee to sponsor more. During the implementation process, there must be specific plans, reports, and models, not in general.
Vice Chairwoman of VNFU Cao Xuan Thu Van suggested that the FU of Vinh Long province in the coming time must make efforts to build many models with the imprint of the Farmers' Union, and then summarize and replicate it.
Especially in the coming time, the Provincial FU must advise or plan to submit to Vinh Long Provincial People's Committee to implement some programs. For example, the OCOP product connection program, the program to trace the origin of agricultural products, etc.
In terms of propaganda, the FU must do it at all levels, paying attention to the development of members, expanding to other areas. people who sympathize with the FU, people who love agriculture, students, scientists, at the same time, improve the quality of collective groups
For the upcoming congress, it is necessary to focus on funding sources. In addition to the FU's budget, other organizational resources can also be mobilized. At the same time, there must be works and tasks to welcome the Congress.
