On June 13th, The Water Agency and Organizing Committee of Mekong Salt Lab Project had a field trip to Tra Cu and Duyen Hai districts (Tra Vinh province) to survey the situation of saltwater intrusion as well as how the farmers here respond and adapt to salinized soil.
In addition, the team also visited households to observe the way their farming process was changed to adapt to soil salinity. We had the chance to learn many interesting things, especially the methods of coping with saltwater intrusion of local people, and gained a lot of practical and valuable knowledge to embed into the training program of Salt Lab.
