Dau Tieng district is a locality with a large rubber growing area, with a total area of 49,230 hectares. In recent years, rubber trees have no longer brought high economic efficiency, so the locality has actively accelerated the conversion of crop and livestock structure towards sustainable development. Besides, the district also focuses on improving the development of industry.
