From early morning, people of Hung Dong commune rushed to the vegetable fields to drain the water. According to the recommendations of the authorities, for low-lying vegetable areas, people need to raise the beds, strengthen the roof, and clear the drainage ditches to facilitate drainage. In addition, it is necessary to proactively harvest the vegetable and crop areas that are ready for harvest to minimize damage when there are storms. Photo: Nguyen Chau |
