Ms. Lo Thi Tam, in Quang Phuc village, Tam Dinh commune, said: "Last year, the unusual rains caught us off guard, causing many areas of rice that had not yet been harvested to sprout. Learning from experience, now that the weather is clear, we are urgently harvesting. For large fields, we hire harvesters, and for small fields, we harvest by hand." Photo: Dinh Tuan

Although the rice has not fully ripened, only reaching about 75-80%, people still decided to harvest. Ms. Lo Thi Tuyen, in Quang Phuc village, Tam Dinh commune said: "The rice will be fully ripe in about a week, but we are afraid of rain so we have to harvest early. Up to now, my family has almost completed the summer-autumn harvest." Photo: Dinh Tuan
