| The Xa Doai oranges with their golden flesh will be harvested from now until the Lunar New Year, while the Van Du orange variety, which ripens later, will be harvested after the New Year. According to Mr. Bien, many festivals and the full moon festival take place after the New Year, making the oranges easier to sell. Photo: Xuan Hoang |
