People buy green vegetables at Gieng Vuong market area

Researching the market, it is known that in recent days, due to the impact of many heavy rains, many vegetable growing areas in Lang Son province and other localities in the Northern region were flooded, so the supply of vegetables was affected, which is the reason for the increase in vegetable prices.

At this time, the amount of spring vegetables and tubers in the province has run out, small traders mainly import from other localities to supply the consumption needs of the people, this also causes the price of vegetables to increase.

The high price of vegetables is due to a temporary shortage of supply. According to the recommendations of the provincial agricultural sector, farmers need to be careful in production and should not expand the planting area massively, which can easily lead to a situation of "good harvest, low price" when the supply is abundant again. Along with that, it is necessary to research the market, choose suitable plant varieties for cultivation and promote production linkages to ensure output for green vegetable products.
