VTV.vn - The rain came late this year for the Central Highlands, but locals are overjoyed at the first rainfall after months of severe drought.

Gia Lai and Dak lak Province received 500 millimetres of rainfall on Saturday. Farmers saved tens of thousands of dollars, with one hectare of coffee and peppers alone receiving 200 USD worth of water. 

The rainy season is also a good time to plant short-term crops. According to the hydro-meteorological center, from now until the end of May, rain will continue in some areas throughout the Central Highlands.
