After Tet, many women in Thanh Chuong and Nam Dan take advantage of the opportunity to work as hired laborers to earn extra income. January transplanters have plenty of work to do and are in high demand.

These days, many localities in Thanh Chuong district are entering the rice planting season. In the fields, farmers are busy pulling up seedlings and planting rice. Photo: Huy Thu

In localities that organize simultaneous planting, every household hires planters. Although there are many planters coming from many places, some households have not found planters even after pulling out the seedlings. Photo: Huy Thu

A woman in Dong Van commune said that she thought the year would be sunny and warm, but it turned out to be colder than the rest of the year, but farmers still planted rice because the seedlings had grown strong. On the morning of February 10, the sun was shining, but the previous days of planting in the cold rain were quite difficult. Photo: Huy Thu

All the women in the neighborhood work as hired transplanters, so it's quite fun. Photo: Huy Thu
