    Agriculture ministry seeks to help scorching central region

    At the meting in Hanoi, Minister Cao Duc Phat ordered provinces to save water and closely monitor the use of water sources. Residents in places that do not have water for rice should change into growing other plants like maize, peanut and soybean, he said.

    Vu Van Thang, deputy head of the Irrigation Department, said that provinces should strengthen dredging river mouths and install more pumping stations.

    According to Deputy Minister Bui Ba Bong, 100,000 hectares of rice in central provinces are in danger of no yielding due to a severe shortage of water.

    “Our central provinces are facing the loss of a hundred thousand hectares of rice to drought," said Bui Ba Tong, deputy minister of Agriculture and Rural Development.

    Although the summer-fall crop has already been harvested, more than 60,000 hectares of rice fields have not been planted as there’s no water, Tong said.


    In Nghe An and Ha Tinh Provinces, the average temperatures exceeded 40 degrees Celsius during sevreal days. Rainfall was limited, both in volume and area covered, Tang said.
