Tien Giang (VAN) The Nguyen Tan Thanh sluice is crucial in preventing salinity and storing freshwater to meet the daily needs of over 1.1 million residents in Tien Giang and Long An provinces.
(VAN) Since its inception, the Ninh Quoi sluice gate in Bac Lieu province has significantly benefited the four Mekong Delta provinces during two severe dry seasons.
(VAN) During the dry season of 2024, the freshwater and saltwater control sluice projects invested in by the MARD in Ben Tre have significantly contributed to mitigating the impact of natural disasters in the region.
Ca Mau (VAN) Deputy Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development, Nguyen Hoang Hiep, alongside a FAO delegation, initiated a support package of 5.4 billion VND in cash for individuals impacted by drought and saltwater intrusion.
(VAN) The Prime Minister requested that a review of each area, each hamlet, and each household in the Mekong Delta be organized to have specific appropriate plans to ensure water sources for people's daily lives.
(VAN) If the rainy season comes late and drought and salinity prolong, the resistance of rivers and people's water reserves will be affected.
(VAN) Prioritize structural and non-industrial solutions so that the production and daily life of people in coastal areas and islands remain safe in drought and saltwater intrusion.
(VAN) Salinity surrounds both the East and West Seas, but thanks to the regulation of the irrigation structure system, as of now, saltwater intrusion has not affected production in Hau Giang.
(VAN) The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development requires localities to continue advising people not to sow rice seeds in areas at risk of saltwater intrusion.
(VAN) According to the Ben Tre Hydro-Meteorological Station, the province's rainfall in 2023 is significantly below the annual average by 100 to 250mm, and the rainy season is expected to conclude early.
(VAN) The 'Water by Wind demonstration' was inaugurated at An Hai commune, Ninh Phuoc (Ninh Thuan province) on March 15, utilizing renewable energy to filter saltwater into freshwater for production and daily living.
(VAN) Some localities in the southern province of Soc Trang have urgently closed sluice gates to prevent salinity and protect crops as saltwater intrusion penetrates deep into fields.
(VAN) Lakes in the Mekong basin will continue to restrict water release in the coming time, causing the flow to decrease quickly, resulting in deeper salt intrusion.
(VAN) In the 2021-2022 dry season, saltwater intrusion is forecasted to come Mekong Delta provinces earlier than every year, affecting winter-spring rice crop and aquaculture production.
(VAN) The Mekong Delta region often suffers from saltwater intrusion. However, the cause of that situation is not only due to the hydropower dams upstream of the Mekong River.
