Oranges are also packed in 5kg and 10kg boxes, perfect for Tet gifting.

Currently, Canh oranges are priced between 35,000 – 50,000 VND/kg, while V2 oranges range from 20,000 – 25,000 VND/kg, depending on appearance and quality.

Bam Market serves as a popular rest stop for travelers along National Highway 6.

Alongside Cao Phong oranges, purple sugarcane is a mainstay of local agriculture during the Lunar New Year season.

Purple sugarcane is cut into sections and vacuum-sealed or bagged for better preservation and convenience.

According to local growers, this year’s purple sugarcane crop is a success. The canes are soft and sweet with a gentle, non-harsh flavor and a distinct aroma.

Currently, the Bam Market area hosts over 40 households specializing in trading the unique agricultural products of the Muong Thang - Cao Phong region.
