Mr. Nguyen Xuan Truong - Head of the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development of Ky Son district said: Although the weather in some communes of Ky Son in the past few days has been very cold, ranging from 2 - 8 degrees Celsius, the cold period only occurs from 4 pm today to 9 am tomorrow, so there has been no damage to livestock.
However, before the cold season, the District People's Committee issued a document directing localities to strengthen propaganda on cold prevention and control measures for people and livestock, especially buffalo and cows. Accordingly, on very cold days, people should lock their livestock in barns, cover them tightly and light fires to keep them warm.
