Due to an abundance of fruits and a higher yield of rosy-pulped pomelos, this year's price is about 5,000 VND lower than last year.

Thanh Hong Commune Agricultural Service Cooperative's signing of a contract with Nam Vu Clean Agriculture Cooperative in Lien Mac commune to underwrite rosy-pulped pomelos is a new feature this year.

In addition, rosy-pulped pomelos are favorably consumed in such localities as Hai Phong city and Quang Ninh province.

Rosy-pulped pomelos are harvested from the beginning of the 8th lunar month to the 10th lunar month. Prior to that time, many traders in the commune and neighboring ones pay deposits to buy all pomelos in gardens.
