"My name is Phaly, I am a Hmong person. I was born on 02^nd of May 1994 in the Den Xa Vang village, Luang Prabang district, Luang Prabang provice, Laos. Fortunately, thanks for Farmer Field School of "Young eco-farmers" of SPERI, after four years studying from 2010 to 2014, I have had a good foundation of eco-farming.
