At this time, in the mountainous districts of Western Nghe An, the weather is extremely cold, especially in the morning and evening. Therefore, farmers have to use many measures to protect themselves from the cold: working through noon, wearing scarves, woolen hats... Photo: Dinh Tuan

It was cold and windy, so many people had to put up tarps to block the wind. Photo: Dinh Tuan

People even light fires to keep warm on the banks of the fields. Ms. Vi Thi Khuyen, a resident of Na Tong village, Tam Thai commune, said: "The weather has been very cold these past few days, so we have had to light fires on the banks to keep warm from time to time." Photo: Dinh Tuan

To keep up with the season, people "exchange labor" with each other, after finishing planting rice in one house, they focus on planting rice in another house. Mrs. Luc Thi Minh in Lung village, Tam Thai commune, Tuong Duong district shared: "Exchanging labor with each other helps the working spirit to be more enthusiastic, otherwise any family that does it will feel sad and the productivity will not be as high . Not only that, exchanging labor with each other also helps strengthen the solidarity of the people in the village". Photo: Dinh Tuan
