HÀ NỘI — Hải Dương Province exported the first batches of its lychees to Japan yesterday, according to the Plant Protection Department under the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development.

The province has about 9,800ha hectares of lychee plants. Of which, the two largest growing regions are Thanh Hà District (3,600ha) and Chí Linh City (3,900ha) with an estimated total output at 43,000 tonnes.
Hải Dương estimates it will export half of its total lychee output this year, mainly to China. The rest will be consumed in the domestic market.
