The new feature in this spring crop is that the district increased the high-yield rice area to 800 hectares from the previous spring crop, and at the same time deployed 2 large model fields, including Nghi Dong high-yield rice field. Mr. Nguyen Duc Tho - Head of the Department of Agriculture of Nghi Loc district, said: following the province's directive schedule, the district focused on thoroughly educating people to organize the planting of long-term rice varieties first, and short-term rice varieties later. The entire spring rice area began to be planted from January 10 onwards and was completed before the Lunar New Year (February 10), ensuring that the rice would bloom before April 20. As of February 5, the whole district has completed the total spring rice planting area of ​​nearly 7,000 hectares. Communes that have implemented good planting are Nghi Phuong, Nghi Kieu, Nghi Van, Nghi Hoa... The remaining unplanted areas are mainly low-lying areas in communes such as Nghi Huong, Nghi Thuan...
