Effects of El Nino intensify in Vietnam

According to experts, the severity of this situation could equal that of the 1997-98 period, and will continue until 2016. The current state of water suggests that salt intrusion and droughts will occur during the 2016 harvest seasons. Areas that will be most affected include the Central Highlands, Central Region, and Mekong Delta. Local authorities are strictly monitoring water sources, as well as following sustainable production models.
