VTV.vn - The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development has approved a component of the Water Management Project for Rural Development in the Mekong Delta (WB6) to build and install an irrigation drain system along the Cut Canal in Kien Giang.

Scheduled to be completed in early 2017, the irrigation efforts target climate change and rising sea level adaptation.

Once operational, the project will help manage water sources and prevent salt intrusion and flood tides while controlling and draining water, thus ensuring stable agriculture production and aquaculture activities in Rach Gia city and Tan Hiep and Chau Thanh districts.
