| Mr. Nguyen Van Hoang in Quynh Minh commune said: in addition to regularly watering the plants, his family also mounds the roots and clears irrigation ditches to create moisture for the soil, helping vegetables grow. |

| Mr. Nguyen Xuan Dinh - Head of the District Department of Agriculture and Rural Development recommends: The summer-autumn season has many unfavorable weather conditions for the growth and development of vegetable crops, the alternating rain and sunshine create favorable conditions for pests and diseases to develop such as specialized fungi as anthracnose, root rot, wilting, stem cracking and sap flow... causing harm to vegetable crops. Therefore, farmers need to pay attention to regularly visiting the fields to detect diseases early and spray them promptly. |
