After the storms, what people need most is not just immediate relief, but resources for resuming production and restoring their livelihoods. Therefore, as soon as the floodwaters receded, communes and wards promptly assessed the damage and identified the actual support needs of each region and target group. From there, programs to support seedlings, livestock, and agricultural supplies were implemented synchronously and at the right time. Bags of rice seeds, corn seeds, short-term vegetable seeds, and herds of livestock and poultry were delivered directly to the people, not only providing material value but also instilling confidence to help them recover after the disaster.
Holding a bag of rice seeds provided by the Vietnam Seed Corporation, Mr. Chau Tham in Nam Binh 1 neighborhood (Dong Hoa ward) was moved to tears. Mr. Tham said that the recent flood submerged his house, and over a ton of his family's rice was lost. The timely support of the rice seeds not only helped his family restore production but also served as a great source of encouragement to overcome the difficulties.
Mr. Nguyen Cong Tu (Krong Ana commune) emotionally said: “During the recent floods, my family lost our entire flock of over 300 chickens. Thanks to the support of Mavin Austfeed Binh Dinh Co., Ltd. in providing chicks, I have the means to rebuild the flock and gradually stabilize production after the floods.”

According to the Department of Agriculture and Environment, to date, the agricultural sector has received 1,485 tons of rice seeds and 78.57 tons of corn seeds from the emergency support source of the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment . Businesses have also supported the province with 30,000 breeding chickens, 90 tons of mixed feed, 6,000 liters of disinfectant chemicals, 1 ton of HAN-CHLOR B antibacterial agent for communes and wards, along with 65 tons of rice seeds and fertilizer supplies. All of these have been distributed to localities and provided to farmers in a timely manner to restore production.
Currently, in many areas, support extends beyond simply providing livestock and seeds; it also includes technical guidance. Agricultural extension, veterinary, and fisheries officials are closely monitoring the situation on the ground, advising on how to treat flooded land, select suitable breeds, and prevent and control diseases that arise after floods. This approach aims to help farmers sustainably restore production and minimize the risk of a "second crop failure."

Thanks to that timely support, the rhythm of work has gradually returned to many rural areas. Fields that were once deeply flooded are now being reclaimed for sowing, and livestock shelters have been renovated to begin the new breeding season.
Mr. Le Trieu from Thach Tuan 2 village (Hoa Xuan commune) emotionally said: “As soon as we heard that our family would receive a breeding cow, we quickly started repairing and rebuilding the barn. When the officers from the Economic Security Department (Provincial Police) came to give us the cow, I was so happy I cried. This cow is the capital for our whole family to start over.”
More than a month after the floods, the vegetable fields in Binh Ngoc (Tuy Hoa ward) have gradually regained their vitality. On the soil once thick with mud and debris left behind by the floodwaters, the vibrant green of cabbage, coriander, lettuce, and other vegetables is now covering the fields. According to Mr. Nguyen Van Binh, immediately after the water receded, his family promptly cleaned up the debris, improved the soil, plowed, and planted seeds to be ready for the new production season. “The recent floods submerged the entire vegetable crop area, so the supply of fresh vegetables on the market is scarce. Therefore, people are taking advantage of every day to plant early, both to supply the market and to quickly generate income and stabilize their lives after the natural disaster,” Mr. Binh said.

Severely damaged by recent floods, the staff of Green Island Ecofarm (Ea Na commune) are also focusing on recovery efforts. Mr. Tran Khanh Minh, Director of Green Island Ecofarm Co., Ltd., said: “Thanks to the joint efforts of many organizations and individuals, Green Island Ecofarm is gradually recovering. We are striving to be able to welcome guests back for Tet this year.”
