Before harvesting corn, local people simultaneously strip the leaves and break off the tops to dry the corn. Green corn leaves are used by households as animal feed. Mr. Nguyen Chi Tu - Head of Hamlet 3, Minh Tien Commune, is stripping corn leaves in the field and said: This corn crop, people in the village grow many types of corn, but the genetically modified corn variety is still the best quality: tall plants, no falling, big ears, many grains. However, due to early harvesting to plant the new corn crop in time, many corn fields are not very old, the grains are not full, which will affect the yield and output. Photo: Huy Thu
