(Baonghean.vn) - The flood in early October 2022 submerged fields in many localities, wiping out many crops. Now, the green color of corn, potatoes and other crops has revived.

The historic flood in early October 2022 caused heavy damage to many winter crop areas in Hung Nguyen. 15 hectares of winter cucumbers of farmers in Hung Tan commune (Hung Nguyen) were completely flooded during the fruiting period. During the days of heavy rain, people had to stick with their rain comrades to save the cucumbers. However, 8 hectares were heavily flooded, so the cucumber plants withered after the flood. The water receded, and people were able to sow seeds and replant them in time. Currently, the cucumber plots have started to grow green, and it is expected that the first harvest will be ready in a few weeks. Photo: Thanh Phuc
In the Con Go field (Dong village, Hung Tan commune), people are busy taking care of purple garlic - the main crop of the 2022 winter crop. "During the flood, this field was flooded. As soon as the rain stopped, people quickly went to the field, cleared the flow, dredged ditches to drain the water. When the land is dry and the weather is sunny, they prepare the land and plant seeds in time for the season. Currently, 2 hectares of purple garlic of Dong village people have turned green," said Mr. Phan Thanh Ha, head of Dong village. Photo: Thanh Phuc
