The sugarcane beetle species mainly include the black scarab, the brown beetle and the large brown hairy beetle, which often arise and cause strong damage in sandy soil, riverbank soil, soil with light mechanical composition, or on specialized cultivation areas, growing sugarcane for many years, not rotating crops with other crops. NASU technicians check for insects entering the lamp trap. Photo: NASU. The life cycle of these beetles lasts from 365 to 720 days, going through 4 stages: egg, larva (worm), pupa and adult. Over the years, Nghe An Sugarcane Company Limited (NASU) has researched and applied integrated measures to effectively manage sugarcane beetles in the company’s raw sugarcane areas. This is the result that NASU has studied the management of sugarcane beetles in many countries such as China, Thailand, Indonesia… to apply on NASU’s sugarcane material area. Mr. Nguyen Hoang Son Phong, engineer of NASU said that sugarcane field was damaged by beetle larvae, yield decreased by 13-54%, sugar decreased from 11-57%. The original cane is more severely damaged by beetles than silk cane. Larvae (larvae) hatch from eggs, live in the soil for an average of 240 – 480 days (larvae of the brown hairy beetle are larger, longer than the beetle species) before transitioning to the pupa and adult stage. During the development cycle, larvae are active in the ground, age 1 and 2 in addition to eating cane roots, also eat organic matter, humus, decayed organic fertilizer or bagasse. Light traps are quite simple but effective in killing beetles applied in the cane material area of ​​NASU. Photo: NASU. From the end of the age of 2, the larvae only feed on the roots and underground stems of sugarcane. The 3-year-old larvae have a long sexual development time and cause the most damage to sugarcane, making sugarcane unable to grow, withering, drying and dying, leading to a decrease in sugarcane and sugar yield. The more damage the harvest stage, the more obvious. When the 3-year-old larvae are full, they begin to build cocoons out of soil and pupate to stay in the cocoon. If the weather conditions are favorable, after about 20 days, the pupae will turn into an adult, break the cocoon and crawl to the ground. Unfavorable weather conditions, especially low soil moisture and low temperature, will prolong the pupal development time. This extended period, called the hibernation period, can last up to 4 months. Effective management of beetles According to the research as well as the process applied effectively at NASU, control beetle larvae by plowing the soil thoroughly before planting sugarcane, collecting larvae and spreading the granular insecticide Patox 4GR, with the amount of 40 kg/ha in rows when planting sugarcane. Beetles trapped in nets. Photo: NASU. However, the method of spraying granular pesticides into the soil, in addition to killing larvae, will destroy beneficial microorganisms and insects in the soil, affecting the soil environment. The adults of these sugarcane beetles tend to be strong with light, fly out to mate from March to May, after showers with an amount of over 20mm. This is the best time to kill adults, limit egg laying, and reduce later harm caused by larvae. Mr. Hoang Quoc Tiem, a long-time sugarcane grower in Dua village, Nghia Yen commune (Nghia Dan, Nghe An) said that in the spring crop of 2021, in addition to killing larvae when growing sugarcane, NASU has implemented additional measures to destroy them. maturity such as using lamp traps, casting nets, and making traps in the field. The light trap is designed to be able to install light bulbs from the grid, battery lights or solar power systems. Traps are made by taking advantage of plastic containers, above are lights, below are placed water, add diesel oil to prevent the adults from moving out of the trap. In the middle of the light trap, install 2 corrugated iron sheets of size 40 cm x 60 cm, perpendicular to each other. As adults, beetles are attracted to light, flying into traps will collide with corrugated iron and fall into the water. After the rainy nights of early summer, each light trap catches 250-300 brown beetle adults, 40-50 black beetle adults, and 20-30 large brown-haired clipping adults and lots of adults of other sugarcane borers. The “product” obtained after a night of light traps includes many different species of beetles and borers… Photo: NASU. In addition, on the field, a fishing net is installed, the size of the net is 1cm x 1cm, and the adults move hundreds of fish of all kinds after every night it rains. In the sugarcane field, from 50 – 100m, dig pit traps, measuring 30 cm deep x 60 cm long x 60 cm wide, below the manure and by-products, which are the preferred food of adults, mixed with drugs. Low-odor insecticide is Goldra so that when adults eat it, it will be destroyed. According to the research results of scientists, the female beetle species can lay an average of 229-328 eggs, the lowest hatching rate from eggs to larvae is 70%. With the method of killing adults from light traps and netting in the field, it will limit a lot of harm caused by larvae to sugarcane … Mr. Phan Van Toan, Director of Agricultural Extension of Nghe An Sugar Co., Ltd. said that with the above management method, the rate of damage of beetles on both silk and sugarcane fields is reduced. This is the money for the company to expand the model on the raw material area in the coming years to stabilize the material area and improve production efficiency for farmers.

Along with Dai Tu tea area, from 2005 up to now, Van Dien fused fertilizer and specialized multi-factor NPK fertilizer Van Dien have also been tested and gradually used for industrial crops in the northern mountainous provinces. . Through the process of using, Van Dien fertilizer has been bundled with production, has a brand and trust with people here. Although no additional lime is required, agricultural land is improved, reduced acidity and increased porosity, crops grow better, higher quality and help farmers reduce the amount of fertilizers and pesticides. diseases, protect the ecological environment, and at the same time reduce labor. Hoa Binh sugarcane growers choose Van Dien fertilizer because it helps to increase productivity, reduce pests and diseases and increase the quality of cane sugar. With white sugarcane, the tree is firm, not porous like when fertilizing with a lot of nitrogen, fresh water, not sour. Purple sugarcane color is smooth and dark purple, increasing the sweet and aromatic taste. When applying Van Dien fertilizer, purple sugarcane and white sugarcane all give long internodes, fat plants, blooming tops, bright green leaves, and hard plants. The Central Highlands has more than 1 million hectares planted with coffee, rubber and pepper trees, of which coffee accounts for nearly 70%, Sao rubber 20%, the rest is pepper. The soil is mainly red basalt and gray soil with thick, porous, well-drained cultivation layer, suitable for many crops, especially coffee, pepper and rubber. After liberation (1975), the Central Highlands’ land was strongly exploited, ethnic farmers here invested to intensively cultivate coffee, rubber, and pepper beyond the allowable limit to have the highest output, ten years. The crop grows well at the beginning, but gradually decreases in the following years due to the imbalance of nutrients in the soil. Due to the limited knowledge of gardeners, the massive use of chemical fertilizers leads to a decrease in yield, crop quality, and an increase in costs. From 1990 to 2013, Van Dien Fused Phosphate Company cooperated with scientists from the Central Highlands Agro-Forestry Science and Technology Institute to conduct many experiments to research and use Van Dien fertilizer for coffee plants. Coffee, pepper, rubber in the provinces of Kom Tum, Gia Lai, Dak Lak, Lam Dong… gave outstanding results. On red basalt soil, gray soil, the yield of 1kg of P2O5 in Van Dien fused phosphorus gave a bumper harvest of 31.6 – 33kg of green coffee, an increase of 11.2% compared to the control (other phosphate fertilizers). Especially on gray soil, the yield of 1kg of P2O5 in Van Dien fused phosphate fertilizer reached 31.7kg of green coffee, an increase of over 20% compared to other phosphate fertilizers, with pepper and rubber, Van Dien fused phosphate fertilizer. It also gives an increase in profit compared to other phosphate fertilizers from 8 to 15%. Especially, since 2010, a series of multi-factorial fertilization (DYT) experiments with Van Dien NPK for coffee, pepper and rubber were also carried out on red basalt and gray soils and gave very good results. different from other types of NPK. According to the new concept, clean agricultural production and organic agricultural products are not allowed to excessively use synthetic chemicals such as chemical fertilizers, plant protection drugs, growth stimulants, preservatives, and variable materials. genetic modification… but rather the use of manure, organic fertilizer, natural mineral fertilizer… is a technology to meet the balanced nutritional needs of plants, while maintaining and improving soil fertility, and protecting ecological environment, leaving no toxic residues in agricultural products, creating products of high quality, safe for users and bringing high economic efficiency to producers. Van Dien fertilizer completely meets the requirements of producing clean vegetables, safe vegetables, organic vegetables…: providing nutrients in each period according to the needs of plants. Vegetables and crops are fertilized with NPK multi-factor fertilizer – Van Dieu’s fused fertilizer in combination with nitrogen and potassium in appropriate proportions for each plant; not only bring high productivity, good quality of agricultural products, ensure safety for users; but also increase the resistance to pests, diseases, drought, cold and spill resistance, reduce the use of pesticides, protect the ecological environment. This is also the key to our country’s agricultural production, ensuring that crops grow well, are safe for the soil, products meet quality standards and confidently conquer the market.

Sugarcane juice inherently has a simple sweet taste, later mixed by many people with different types such as Saigon people or adding kumquat to make sugarcane juice more delicious. Today, many people also mix it with many different types: coconut milk, pineapple juice, strawberries, orange juice and sugarcane juice for a nutritious drink. 1. Sugarcane juice with coconut milk You may have heard of sugarcane juice with coconut milk, this is a pretty famous beverage in My Tho. Sugarcane juice with coconut milk has the sweet and fatty taste of coconut milk, the cool natural sweetness of sugarcane juice, and adds a few chewy coconut fibers to ease the pain in the mouth. To prepare the best amount of coconut milk, you should buy grated coconut from outside rather than pre-packed and squeeze the juice. Put cane juice (cane juice must be fresh and sweet) and coconut milk in turn into a blender, press the button to run the machine for about 30 seconds to get a fresh coconut milk cane dish. Putting sugarcane juice and coconut milk in the blender instead of putting it in a glass and just stirring helps to blend the coconut milk with the sugarcane juice better, and above all, you will feel the full flavor of this drink without being too much. material separation. What’s better than a breath of cool coconut milk on a hot day? 2. Fragrant sugar cane juice This fragrant sugarcane juice may be a bit new to Saigon people, but Westerners are very familiar, they often call it pineapple juice. Besides sugarcane juice with coconut milk, fragrant sugarcane juice is also a variation of the people of My Tho, Tien Giang. The effect of pineapple is also one of the reasons why people use aromatic juice in this aromatic sugarcane juice such as enhancing energy, supporting digestion… Buy fragrant, clean, use only 1/4 piece of fragrant. 1/4 piece of pineapple you cut, slice and squeeze to get aromatic juice or you can puree chopped pineapple and squeeze out the juice. Also add sugarcane juice and aromatic juice in a blender like sugar cane juice with coconut milk, wait for about 20 seconds. When enjoying this fragrant sugarcane juice, you also need to pay attention to some cases of people allergic to pineapple (swelling of lips, cheeks or tongue when eating pineapple, increased blood sugar …) to be able to enjoy Enjoy this fragrant sugarcane juice to the fullest. 3. Sugarcane juice with orange juice Have you ever enjoyed orange-squeezed sugarcane juice? Both cooling and very nutritious, the sweetness of sugarcane juice along with the characteristic sweet and sour taste of oranges make this summer drink more perfect. Oranges for making sugarcane juice should be selected yellow oranges to ensure moderate sweetness, squeeze orange juice. However, you can completely use oranges if you like the sour taste more. Put cane juice and orange juice in the blender (add 1 teaspoon of honey/sugar syrup if using oranges to adjust the sweetness accordingly) for about 20 seconds. Sugarcane juice with orange juice is also one of the drinks that are beneficial to the body, because oranges have a lot of vitamin C to add essential minerals, the taste of orange juice will make many people fall in love. 4. Strawberry cane juice Not only can be combined with coconut milk orange juice, sugarcane juice can also be combined with strawberries to produce a drink that is so delicious that it is irresistible. The taste of traditional sugarcane juice mixed with the wonderful sweet and sour taste of strawberries not only helps to cool down, delicious but also helps the body strengthen resistance. Strawberries soaked in diluted brine, washed and cut into 4 small pieces for easier blending. Put the cane juice and 2 small strawberries into the blender, with this strawberry combination, you should grind longer than the 3 recipes above so that the strawberries are pureed and blended with the sugarcane juice more evenly. The amount of strawberries depends on the weight of each fruit, if the strawberry is too big, you only need to use 1 fruit to avoid when grinding with sugarcane juice overpowering the inherent flavor of sugarcane juice. You can improve your health by combining sugarcane juice with fruits. Besides refreshing your own drink taste, you also help your family enjoy 4 new and more delicious sugarcane juices on this hot summer day.

Uncle Le Khac Hoat (57 years old, house number 130 Lung Market, Dang Hai Ward, Hai An District, Hai Phong City), who is said to “invent” the dish, said what makes the delicious taste. Especially and also to distinguish Ha Lung key cake from other types of rolls is dried squid. Uncle Hoat said: “My family specializes in making spring rolls. In a late-night delivery, I saw people baking sugarcane and my mouth watered. From here on, I came up with the idea of ​​wrapping pork rolls around sugar cane. I tried to mix more things like beef, shrimp… but in the end I realized that just adding squid in one sun is the best.” According to Mr. Hoat, fresh squid in Hai Phong is not as rich as in Ha Long, so it is difficult to make delicious squid cakes like there. And Cat Ba has many and very good quality squid, the price is also affordable and especially it is imbued with the wind and sun of the sea. Just like that for more than 30 years, this simple but delicious dish has accompanied Uncle Hoat through many ups and downs and gently entered the hearts of lovers with the name “Ha Lung Cha key”. Ha Lung Cha key is made from 3 main ingredients: Squid, pork and sugarcane. Workers have to go to the market early in the morning, choose to buy or order in advance batches of pork that have just been slaughtered, fresh and clean, and then go home to filter out all the fat, take the meat to puree it, and make it into rolls. Squid must also be delicious, picky buy to Cat Ba, Cat Hai, then bring it back to small pieces, puree with lean pork, marinated with fish sauce, main noodles, shiitake mushrooms, wood ear, pepper … The famous Ha Lung bacon, no one knows, only, that village dish has become such a “specialty” that many tourists, when visiting the flower village and flower market, also have to buy it for the holiday. get a “unique” dish as a gift for relatives and family. Currently, Ha Lung key cake is being sold for from 280,000 to 300,000 VND/kg. (According to GiadinhNet)

Sophie’s text sank me, I couldn’t sleep for a few nights. All my life, I work as a fruit processor, but my daughter craves a glass of sugarcane juice to turn around without having it. I thought a lot and told myself that I would do it, I must definitely send my children fresh and pure sugarcane juice like I used to drink in Vietnam. For the next several months, Sophie kept sending documents about new American beverage trends – fresh, full-bodied juices, prebiotics, minerals, vitamins, probiotics and keeping colors and odors. taste. Sophie emphasized that the water had no additives, preservatives, color, and smell, similar to a glass of cane juice she said “craving to cry”. Sugarcane fields are grown organically by Vinamit. As a professional food processor, I know Sophie is talking about the world beverage trend of 2021 and the future. I remember two years ago, father and son used to go to F&B Washington (USA). When we heard about drinks with new and unique formulas, we were very excited and discussing. Since then, I have started to “make original cane juice” for my daughter. The new path is quite arduous, especially when I am a pioneer. I have to solve the double problem with many requirements, from the visual form, the color of taste, to the invisible elements such as bacteria, microorganisms … that can only be seen in the laboratory. At that time, every day I had to talk to many groups, from biology, biomedical, nutritional experts to equipment specialists, technology, laboratory and experiment experts … After harvesting the organic sugarcane, I go through the processing right away. After importing the machines, I disassemble and supplement special features, then bring the “semi-finished products” to the fertilizer lab. The most difficult stage is keeping alive living bacteria, enzymes, minerals, prebiotics … ensuring they have the highest value. I read a lot of related documents, but I have nowhere to cut sugarcane, take the whole tree, scratch it, eat it raw or peel it and roll it into instant drinking water like Vietnam. The problem is even more difficult when it is a product of health, that is, based on an organic basis, not sugar cane, nor is it grown by chemical farming methods. The cane must be harvested, pressed, and dried. The process is closed, always fresh, to keep the nutrients and essence of the sugarcane plant without using additives, flavors or preservatives. I wonder: “ Does a glass of cane juice need to be fussy? “The answer is” no “, if it is not the subject of a major world trend that I” feel. “Like three years ago, I noticed the tendency of plasticisation and fermentation of food processing industry. I envision I will provide delicious food “ten thousand people love”, fresh and delicious pure sugarcane juice to Vietnamese people around the world and all other nationals. They will love fresh, original, and healthy drinks, especially in the midst of a pandemic, the more clearly the need for good immune support is. Mr. Nguyen Lam Vien- Chairman of the Board of Directors cum General Director of Vinamit. Over the years, I have been continuously experimenting, transforming and creating various stages in the technological process, from vacuum natural radiant thermoelectric gas to IOT automation software. When the application on cane juice achieved high results, I decided to rewrite my “invention”. With the technology of converting from liquid to powder but still keeping the original and simple, I was granted a US patent (US number 10,676,797 B1, issued on June 9, 2020). In the short term, I successfully apply this technology to cane juice and fermented cane juice. In the future, not only fruits and vegetables but also a series of medicinal juices will be dried into powder. It is my dream that I want to contribute to public health. “I think organic fruits, vegetables, herbs … that are pressed into water and still keep the original, it will be herbs for human health. In particular, these main fermented herbs. is a source of youth “. In fact, I was a bit thrilled to have the product tested many times, because natural bacteria are the best species, much stronger than the ones raised in the lab or on their own. Because of their high indigenous nature, they are often referred to by researchers as “lofty bacteria” and seek to keep them intact. It is the most precious thing about this fermented cane powder. To apply for a license in the US, I have done a net 250 articles describing the inventions in a clear and scientific way and then submitted to the authority. After a year, they announced that they had carried out a process of review, approval and confirmed that the technology I presented was new, not copied by anyone. Over the past two months, every day I received several patents for lyophilized beverages from Vietnamese indigenous ingredients (including domestic vegetables, fruits, and vegetables). Love, nostalgia for children inspired me to start walking on a tough road. The love for my job and passion for creation, the desire to conquer challenges, has strengthened me to overcome difficult roads that no one has explored. When the patents were sent back and forth from the US, I immediately submitted them to the National Office of Intellectual Property of Vietnam. It’s great to be able to say to your baby in his nightly sleep: “ Daughter, dad can make the original cane juice as you want. Also from that recipe, three processing organic soymilk and cereal milk to feed their grandchildren, it’s nutritious and delicious … “. The freshly pressed pure cane juice will be put into the freeze dryer by Vinamit, turned into a powder, keeping its color and taste intact. I would like to share this joy with customers of Vinamit: the product I introduce to you is also something for my daughter and grandchildren, the most loved ones in my life. The joy multiplies when I understand that I can create great assets for my country: they are patents that protect the creative efforts of Vietnamese people, thereby leading production to conquer the trend. New cuisine of the world, bringing greater values. Starting with sugarcane juice, up to now, I have continued to process successfully and will bring to the market the original freeze-dried products of other fruits and vegetables. As a farmer, I want to contribute to the country’s agriculture with creativity and methodical steps in the world market competition as a scientific enterprise applying new technology. On the basis of agriculture for life, I really hope that my product will help Vietnamese communities as well as in other countries share knowledge and experience in eating properly, thereby, cure. diseases caused by nutritional imbalances such as digestive ailments, chronic diseases, regaining health, both natural beauty and joy of life.

Newspaper Vietnamese culture Introduce two types of combined sugarcane harvesters: large capacity combined sugarcane harvesters and mini sugarcane harvesters. Mini cane harvesters With a compact size, light weight makes the machine flexible. The knife can be stored deep into the soil layer 20-30mm, so it greatly limits the rate of damage to sugarcane. It can neatly collect sugarcane in a variety of natural states including spilled cane. The machine is equipped with an advanced hydraulic control system adapted to different terrains. Especially with mini machines, the low oil consumption can be below 0.15 liters per hour of operation. The machine is compact, portable, suitable for small and medium-sized sugarcane farms. Sugarcane harvesting machine THM 2.0 by engineer Le Quyet Tien. Interestingly, in 2013, engineer Le Quyet Tien from Nam Dinh and his colleagues invented the THM-2.0 mini-complex cane harvester which was put to trial and application under production conditions in Hiep Hoa. (Long An) and achieved the same productivity and quality standards as the imported machines before: The machine works in complex areas of sugar cane, and can harvest spilled sugarcane. Pure yield is high, can reach 0.21 ha / hour Standard cutting rate ≥ 80%, can cut close to the base without missing and do not crush the sugarcane, spread the trees evenly to the direction of the machine. The hydraulic devices of the machine work smoothly, stably, and operate easily and gently. Up to now, this type of machine is still preferred in small and medium sized sugarcane farms. Large capacity sugarcane harvesting machine The combined sugarcane harvesting machine is a machine with modern technology, fully equipped with hydraulic control system. They have the role of harvesting sugarcane on a large area of ​​land. The hydraulic system works continuously and completely automatically during the sugar cane harvest. Large capacity sugarcane harvesting machine. True to their name, the combined sugarcane harvester, many functions are integrated in the machine. From sugar cane cutting, transmission, peeling, topping, and cleaning are all included in this combined sugarcane harvesting machine. They are very suitable for use in areas with large sugarcane growing areas, where the topography of sugarcane is relatively flat. One more point, the machine can help you harvest any sugarcane you grow. This machine usually has a large capacity, massive design, and is suitable for medium and large scale sugarcane farms. The outstanding features of the combined sugarcane harvester Fast harvest, high yield Before, when there were no modern machines, people still had to use their own labor force. Labor productivity is not high. Moreover, with limited human strength, it is extremely difficult and difficult to harvest the large sugarcane fields. The sugarcane harvester helps the harvest productivity increase significantly. The capacity of the large capacity machine can reach 40 tons / h. This is 300 times more than a healthy worker. Economical and efficient A combined sugar cane harvesting machine works with 70 workers. Instead of hiring a lot of workers, the combined sugarcane harvester saves labor and increases labor efficiency. In addition, the combined sugarcane harvester can cut to the base of the sugarcane, the yield is estimated to increase by 2 tons / ha compared to manual labor. When the sugarcane is harvested by the combined machine, all the tops and leaves of the cane are chopped, crushed and left in the field. This is a huge amount of fertilizer for the next crop. Thanks to that, productivity is also much improved. Currently, in Vietnam, large-scale sugarcane growing farms use many modern and advanced combined sugarcane harvesters in the world. In particular, Brazil and India are the two countries with the most modern sugarcane harvesters available in Vietnam. Sugarcane harvester CASE A8000 Sugarcane harvester CASE A8000 – Brazil Made in Brazil Engine power: 358 horsepower. Design: Distance between rows:> 1.4m Fuel consumption: 1.6 – 2 liters / ton Harvesting capacity: 30-40 tons / hour The sugar cane harvester Shaktiman 3737 Shakatiman 3737-India Made in India Engine power: 173 horsepower. Fuel tank capacity: 208 liters Cylinder volume: 5.9 liters.

“She texted me: ‘I have a craving for sugar cane juice from home. Remember when I go home, my father often drives my children to a familiar shop. Sugar cane just sprouted, put up and turned, squeezed water to drink immediately. Pure, sweet but strangely fragrant. This afternoon, the mother sneaked her mother driving for 45 minutes to find childhood drinks. Also freshly pressed sugar cane juice, but why is it not as delicious as at home, Dad … “, Mr. Vien said. For the next several months, Sophie kept sending documents about new American beverage trends – fresh, full-bodied juices, prebiotics, minerals, vitamins, probiotics and keeping the same color and odor, taste. From the suggestion of his son and his love for his child, Mr. Vien embarked on researching technology to freeze drying sugarcane juice. The new path is quite arduous, especially when he is a pioneer. He has to solve the double problem with many requirements, from visual form, color and taste, to invisible elements such as bacteria, microorganisms … which can only be seen in the laboratory. At that time, every day he had to talk to many groups, from biology, biomedical, nutritional experts to equipment specialists, technology, laboratory and experiment experts… In mid-2018, Mr. Vien and his associates successfully created powdered sugar cane juice, coffee powder, vegetable powder … with sublimation drying technology created by Vinamit equipment. Mr. Vien immediately applied to the US and Vietnam for patents for equipment – technology and “enclosure” for 500 products of fruits, vegetables, fruits … created from this technology platform. In addition to having to prove that at the time of filing Vinamit is the only entity that owns the technology, Mr. Vien also has to point out a series of novelty of the product, which is to keep the natural taste, fresh with vitamin content. , minerals and beneficial bacteria that give life to the gut. The pure freshly pressed sugar cane juice will be put into the freeze dryer by Vinamit and turned into a powder, keeping its color and taste intact. After more than 3 years of waiting, with the technology of converting from liquid to powder but still original and simple, Mr. Nguyen Lam Vien was granted a US patent (No. US 10,676,797 B1, issued on June 9. / 2020). He said it was a pleasure to be able to tell him in his nightly sleep: “ Daughter, Dad made the original cane juice as you wanted. Also from that recipe, the three processed organic soymilk and cereal milk to feed their grandchildren, nutritious and delicious … “. Over the past two months, Mr. Nguyen Lam Vien – Chairman of Vinamit’s Board of Directors cum General Director – has continuously received US technology patents for a series of lyophilized beverages from domestic vegetables and fruits. Then, he submitted his license to do procedures with the National Office of Intellectual Property of Vietnam. Starting with sugarcane juice, Chairman Vien shared that up to now, he has continued to process successfully and will bring to the market the original freeze-dried products of other fruits and vegetables. As a farmer, he wants to contribute to the country’s agriculture with his creativity and methodical steps in the world market competition as a scientific enterprise applying new technology.

Prepare:

• 1 kg of sweet potatoes, medium sized tubers. You should choose medium-sized, even tubers, not to have large tubers – baby bulbs will “help” your potato dish to ripen first, ripe later, soft, hard.

Illustration.

Potatoes are still sticky soil, the soil is not too dry as possible. Potatoes often have a lot of sandy soil (often grown near river banks, with a lot of alluvium), they are “genuine” sweet potatoes.

The tuber inside the flesh is firm and not fibrous, no tubers are devastated, there is a place called phoenix, which means the potato shows signs of sprouting or absorbing water.

• Country

• A little salt

Making:

• Wash the sweet potato, put the potato in the pot, add a little salt (about 1/3 teaspoon) and water to cover the potato. Salt is also an important factor in making the potato feel more fluffy.

• Boil, then boil for another 10-13 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender, skewers can be tried with chopsticks and the potatoes are not crushed.

• When the potatoes are just cooked, drain off the water, cook a little more for the potato slightly scorched. This is the way to make potatoes very tender and fragrant like baked potatoes.

However, the choice of potatoes is also extremely important. Therefore, when shopping for potatoes, women pay attention to choosing potatoes with a moderate size, evenly tubers. If the potatoes are mixed with large or small tubers, the tubers will be ripe first when boiled, the tubers will ripen later, the potatoes are not evenly friable.

Boil potatoes with sugarcane

Spread the eyes of the sugar cane on the bottom of the pot and then place the potatoes on top, cover the potatoes with water about 5cm and then boil. Boil for 15 – 20 minutes, use chopsticks to test, if it feels soft. Drain the water out, cook for about 3-5 minutes for the potato to scorch. With this way the potato will be much sweeter.

Steamed potatoes

Alternatively, to make the sweet potato more flavorful, instead of boiling it, you can steam it in a water bath. Put the potatoes in the pot to steam, arrange the big ones below, the small ones on top, and set the heat to high. When the water in the pot boils for a while, sprinkle it over the low-salt potatoes, steam for a few more minutes and then use chopsticks to check, the potatoes are ripe.
