The Lam River alluvial area stretches across Hung Nguyen and Nam Dan districts, covering thousands of hectares, and is suitable for growing many types of crops, especially for developing high-tech agricultural production. However, this fertile land is now at risk of being gradually wiped out as landslides along the Lam River have become more complex in recent years. Photo: Quang An

A representative of the Department of Agriculture and Environment of Hung Nguyen district said that the most feasible solution at this time is to build an embankment to prevent landslides on the Lam River bank to protect agricultural land and the district's high-tech agricultural zone, especially to ensure the safety of the right bank of dike 42. However, this is a large project and must be submitted to the relevant authorities for approval before it can be implemented. Photo: Quang An

Mr. Vo Nhu Y, Long Xa commune, Hung Nguyen district said that the situation of landslides on Lam river banks is complicated, his family no longer dares to cultivate along the river for fear that the crops will also be swept away by the water. Currently, he only dares to plant in small areas, about 50 meters deep, and short-term crops that can be harvested early to ensure a safe harvest. Photo: Quang An

Planting trees to preserve the soil has been implemented by localities such as Long Xa commune, Hung Nguyen district or Trung Phuc Cuong commune, Nam Dan district to preserve the soil. However, in the long term, it is necessary to build embankments to ensure safety. Photo: Quang An

According to local people and authorities, the continuous erosion of the riverbank is not only caused by floods and fluctuating water flows, but also by the impact of sand mining ships on the Lam River. Photo: Quang An
