Thereby, bringing high economic efficiency on the same unit area, while protecting the ecological environment, contributing to the development of sustainable agriculture . The implementation of the model also creates rice, earthworms and clams products that meet OCOP standards of 3 stars or higher; building value chains for rice, earthworms and clams products.

Xuan Hong commune currently has about 64 hectares of rice production with annual rươi, bringing high economic efficiency. The average rice yield in rươi fields is 56 quintals/ha, rươi is 3.6 quintals/ha, and cay is 2 quintals/ha. Organic rice cultivation on rươi-exploited land contributes to soil improvement, preserving the ecological environment, restoring natural rươi resources, creating clean, safe products with high economic value, favored by the market.
