Salt farmers have no work when it rains.
Mr. Nguyen Xuan Quyet - Chairman of An Hoa Commune People's Committee said: The whole An Hoa commune has nearly 160 hectares of salt production land, 100% of which was flooded and damaged by high tides. The possibility of losing a whole month of salt production is very high because it is not easy to restore the salt fields, and there is no more time to make salt because the rainy season is approaching. It is estimated that losing a whole month of production will cause a loss of over 2,000 tons of salt, sold at 1,500 VND/kg, an estimated loss of 3 billion VND.
