(Baonghean.vn) - On the afternoon of March 28, many people in Thanh Lien commune (Thanh Chuong) had to go to the fields to "clean up" broken corn plants.
The cause of this phenomenon was determined by the locals to be a whirlwind accompanied by rain on the evening of March 26. According to the reporter's observations, the damage caused was quite large, many households "lost" their entire corn growing area.

People were surprised and regretful when after just one night, the corn plants fell down. |
 |
In the field, the ox carts carrying corn kept moving. |
 |
People use bicycles to transport broken corn. |
 |
Some families have all their corn broken. |
 |
According to Ms. Pham Thi Van (Hamlet 5, Thanh Lien), "If the tree is slightly tilted, it can still be rebuilt, but several acres of corn are broken. Not to mention the nitrogen fertilizer, the cost of plowing and harrowing each acre is 160 thousand. We farmers are at a loss." |
 |
Because so much corn was broken, people had to sell it to a unit that buys dairy feed at a cheap price, only 47 thousand VND/100 kg of corn. |
