Mekong delta farmers benefit from tourist model

This model has brought them higher incomes and contributed to the economic development of the region.

Local farmers have been encouraged to invest in eco-farms to diversify local tourism and attract tourists to eco-holidays. The local tourism sector in Dong Thap Province only aims to lure 3.5 million tourists by 2020 and become one of the most attractive destinations in the Mekong Delta region.
