VTV.vn - The development of the Mekong Delta's development relies heavily on agriculture.

 

For this reason, in order to prevent and reduce the impact of climate change on agriculture, forecasting and warning are considered essential. These allow local authorities and residents to properly prepare for any weather occurrences.

Recently, the Department of Crop production has created a map that shows the threat of salinity and floods in the Mekong Delta. Accordingly, there will be 6 regions with different climate change events such as: Đồng Tháp Mười (faces floods and landslides); Long Xuyên Quadrangle (faces  saline intrusion, flood); West of Hậu River (faces drought, unusual heavy rain); Cà Mau peninsula (faces drought, coastal storm); fresh alluvium area (faces drought, heavy rain, tides) and the coastal areas of Southern Vietnam (faces saline intrusion and drought.
