The drizzle in late February could not stop farmers of Dong Cao Village in Hanoi’s outlying district of Me Linh from pushing themselves to the fields to harvest vegetables.
The more packs of tomatoes and lettuces are delivered, the bigger hope they see to get a break-even point.
Dozens of beds of sugar beets were left unharvested while mustard greens were severely destroyed by pests.
Tomatoes, easier to be consumed, were loaded into big bags, pilling up at a front yard of Dong Cao Village Cooperative while waiting to be shipped to the city center.
