| For households growing spring onions, after the weather clears up, people go to the fields to harvest. Ms. Nguyen Thi Huong from Quynh Luong commune said that Typhoon No. 2 caused 3 sao (approximately 0.3 hectares) of her family's spring onions to be flattened, but luckily it didn't rain heavily, so the plants were not damaged and recovered well; the current selling price is still at 5,000 - 6,000 VND/kg.

| During the summer season, spring onions are the main crop for the people of Quynh Luong commune, accounting for 70% of the total vegetable cultivation area. After the storm subsides, the farmers go to the fields to harvest and continue planting the new crop. |

| Along with spring onions, lettuce from Da Lat was also harvested by local people after the storm; it is currently selling for 3,000 - 4,000 VND/kg. |

| According to local residents, to cope with storms and heavy rain, farmers are now mainly cultivating waterlogged vegetable varieties such as spring onions, bitter melon, lettuce, and cucumbers. In addition, the vegetable beds are raised higher than before, and drainage canals are installed in the fields to prevent waterlogging during heavy rains. (Photo: Viet Hung) |
