More than half of the localities in the province have grown spring vegetables exceeding the plan, while the remaining localities have grown 92 - 98%.

Corn, melons, and various green vegetables are the main crops grown by farmers in the province this season.

Since the beginning of the season, vegetable areas have grown well, with fewer pests and diseases than last year. Some crops such as squash, cucumbers, and onions have been damaged by downy mildew, but the area is insignificant.

The consumption market is relatively favorable, the selling price has decreased slightly compared to the same period last year, but farmers still have a profit of 3 - 5 million VND/sao, depending on the time.

The spring vegetable planting season this year lasts until the end of April. The agricultural sector recommends that farmers increase field visits to prevent and control silkworms and flea beetles that can cause damage during this period.

In the 2024-2025 winter-spring crop, Hai Duong plans to plant 10,000 hectares of vegetables. The province's policy is to encourage farmers to expand the area of ​​vegetables, beans, flowers of all kinds, corn, peanuts and some other plants. Encourage people not to expand the area of ​​kohlrabi and cabbage planted at the end of the winter crop and the beginning of the spring crop to limit the situation of excess supply of melons that have to be cut down. Limit the planting of melons and watermelons on fields that have been infected with diseases that have caused the plants to die from previous crops...
