Nghi Loc: Due to water shortage, 500 hectares remain unplanted for the summer-autumn crop.

(Baonghean.vn) -According to the plan, Nghi Loc district was supposed to cultivate 2,600 hectares of rice this summer-autumn season, but so far, only 2,075 hectares have been planted. The remaining more than 500 hectares cannot be planted due to drought.Water shortage.

This area is concentrated in the western communes of the district such as Nghi Van, Nghi Cong Nam, and Nghi My. In the communes of Nghi Yen, Nghi Tien, Nghi Thiet, and Nghi Quang, most of the land is also unsuitable for cultivation due to saline water sources...

Many rice fields in Nghi Loc are waiting for water to plant the summer-autumn rice crop.

Currently, the district's irrigation enterprise and cooperatives are making efforts to bring water to each drought-stricken rice field so that farmers can continue planting the summer-autumn rice crop. However, according to the district's agricultural department, if the drought continues, it will be very difficult to complete the remaining 500 hectares of rice and they will have to switch to producing other types of vegetables.
