Ia Khuol 1 – BioPhap

Ia Khuol 1

In the early August 2017, we have started the new project in Gia Lai Province named Ia Khuol 1 Farm (IKL1) with agroforestry model.

The land has formed a natural ecosystem with a wide variety of forest types: on the top are tall perennial trees, below which are shrubs that maintain an essential moisture in the topsoil for plants to grow well during the dry season.

We have planned to develop a sustainable organic agro-ecosystem with components such as perennial crops, plants for experimenting promoting biodiversity as well as poultry and other local animals.
