Due to the prolonged heat, in order to both harvest on time and ensure health, farmers in the highlands of Nghe An have chosen the method of planting rice at night to avoid the sun.

bna _ 2 — Arriving at the fields of farmers in Tam Thai commune, the mountainous district of Tuong Duong at around 8:00 p.m. (June 21), we could see that the working atmosphere was very lively, always filled with the laughter of the farmers... Ms. Lo Thi Huong, in Lung village, Tam Thai commune, Tuong Duong district said: "During the day, I take advantage of the time to pull up rice seedlings, and in the afternoon, I have dinner early so that I can start planting rice at around 5:00 p.m. Usually, I return around 10:00 p.m., but sometimes it is as late as 11:00 p.m." Photo: Dinh Tuan

bna _ 3 — Not far from Ms. Huong's family's field is Ms. Luong Thi Oanh's family's field. "Because there is a shortage of labor as many young workers go to work far away, while the seasonal schedule is tight, many families have to hire more workers. Many people take advantage of their own farm work to then work for hire to earn extra income," Ms. Oanh shared. Photo: Dinh Tuan

bna _ 4 — Another resident in Lung village, Tam Thai commune also said: "Not only my family but most farmers in the village and commune choose to plant at night. Planting at night not only avoids the sun but also allows for water to come in. Planting at night also helps the seedlings grow better, take root faster and stay fresher, because the water and mud have cooled down"...Photo: Dinh Tuan

bna _ 5 — These days, not only farmers in Tam Thai commune but also in many other localities in Tuong Duong district, at night, they also "put on lights" to go to the fields to plant rice and pull out seedlings, such as in Thach Giam town, Tam Dinh, Tam Quang... With a positive and proactive spirit, we believe that this year's summer-autumn crop of farmers in Tuong Duong district will successfully complete the crop production according to plan, creating the premise for a bumper crop.
