Regarding the district's proposals, Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Dinh Viet Hong suggested that the district should have a specific project to submit to the province for approval to support funding for the construction and upgrading of a number of canal systems and irrigation dams to serve agricultural production. There should be a project on converting crops suitable to land and climate conditions to achieve higher productivity and efficiency./.
