Ben Tre Province is accreted by alluvium from four tributaries, Tien River, Ba Lai River, Ham Luong River and Co Chien River, creating favorable conditions for coconut cultivation.

Currently, Ben Tre has more than 200,000 families growing coconuts, accounting for about two thirds of the total number of households in the province. Therefore, coconut groves can be found everywhere.
