Hanoi is promoting high-tech flower cultivation by expanding greenhouse and net house production areas, applying new varieties and advanced techniques, and converting low-yield rice fields into flower-growing zones to foster green, climate-resilient agriculture combined with eco-tourism.
According to the Hanoi Agricultural Extension Centre under the Municipal Department of Agriculture and Environment, the city currently has more than 3,000 ha of flower-growing areas, including about 47 large-scale flower production zones covering over 1,800 ha in districts such as Tay Ho, Me Linh, Dan Phuong, Thuong Tin, and Gia Lam. High-quality flower cultivation accounts for over 30% of the total area, with several varieties such as orchids, lilies, and chrysanthemums already being exported.
Many high-tech flower farms have adopted automated irrigation systems, light and temperature regulation, and have achieved relatively high productivity. The average production value ranges from 500 million (18,900 USD) to 1.5 billion VND (56,9000 USD) per hectare per year, with some models earning up to 2.2 billion VND per hectare annually.
The use of smart management systems, greenhouse and net house technologies, and water-saving irrigation helps farmers actively manage production, enhance competitiveness, and meet strict market demands, thereby increasing profits compared with traditional flower cultivation.
