Thanks to growing fish mint, many households earn hundreds of millions of dong.

fish mint also has other names such as fish fillet, leaf, fish mint leaf, fish wormwood, heart leaf, lizard tail.

This is a familiar vegetable in the countryside of Vietnam from time immemorial

They grow wild everywhere, anywhere they can grow without care, the tree is still green and fresh

About this vegetable, some people praise the aroma, while others criticize it. In the past, they had no value, few people bought and sold them, and only went to the garden to pick and eat

But in recent decades, fish mint is very popular in the city, and the price has also increased rapidly, sometimes up to 50,000 VND ($2)/ kg.

 In addition to fresh fish mint, dried fish mint is also very expensive, priced from 65,000-80,000 VND/kg.

Because of the high economic value and user demand, many households have expanded the model of growing fish mint, bringing a significant source of income.

fish mint grows from 30-40 days to be harvested

They can be harvested all year round, so they can bring a steady source of money to the people

In Chau Thanh district, Tien Giang province, fish mint from the field is sold for 17,000 – 20,000 VND($1)/kg. At this price, each hectare earns more than 300 million VND/per year.
