Additionally, the district has planted, maintained, and protected 706 hectares of various fruit trees, including mango, pineapple, pear, pomelo, and longan.

By the end of 2025, the district aims to expand its macadamia cultivation to nearly 10,000 hectares, with 8,000 hectares cultivated by local residents, and to increase its coffee plantation area to 3,000 hectares.

He urged the Tuần Giáo District Party Committee to focus on maintaining and expanding the current cultivation areas, particularly for macadamia, coffee, and medicinal plants grown under forest canopies.
