The weather cleared up, and people in Nghe An urgently went to the fields to restore production in time for the season.

The vegetable plants have just taken root when they encounter storms and flooding. For deeply flooded plots with rotten roots, the soil will be treated and the plants will be replanted while waiting for the sun to dry; for lightly flooded plots with vegetables that can recover, farmers will focus on caring for them and replanting.
