\nPART 1: ORIGIN AND ADVANTAGES OF FLOATING RICE<\/p>\n

\ud83c\udf3e Floating rice, also known as broadcast rice, is a unique rice variety of the Mekong Delta, closely tied to the annual flood season from July to October in the lunar calendar. Before its introduction, farmers in the Southwest mainly practiced traditional transplanting, but during flood season the fields were often submerged 1.5\u20134.5 meters, leading to frequent crop losses.<\/p>\n

\ud83d\udea4 A historical turning point came when Phan V\u0103n V\u00e0ng, a Cai c\u01a1 of the Nguy\u1ec5n Dynasty in An Giang, had the opportunity to learn about deep-flood-tolerant rice cultivation during a trip with a French hydrology specialist in Cambodia. There, he observed a remarkable rice variety: as the water rose, the rice stalks grew taller accordingly.<\/p>\n

Realizing this could solve the food shortages in the upstream floodplain, in 1891 he brought back two varieties \u2014 N\u00e0ng \u0110\u00f9m and N\u00e0ng Ph\u01b0\u1ee3c \u2014 and sowed them in Ph\u01b0\u1edbc H\u01b0ng, H\u00e0 Bao, Ch\u00e2u Ph\u00fa\u2026 The results exceeded expectations, prompting the Chief of Ch\u00e2u \u0110\u1ed1c Province to encourage farmers across the region to adopt this model, helping stabilize production and boost the local economy.<\/p>\n

\ud83c\udf31 Outstanding advantages of floating rice:
\n\ud83c\udf3e Adapts to floodwaters: seeds are simply broadcast onto the field; the rice grows and elongates with rising water, reaching heights of 5\u20137 meters
\n\ud83c\udf3e Requires no chemical fertilizers or pesticides, thriving solely on floodwater and silt
\n\ud83c\udf3e Produces very \u201cclean\u201d rice grains rich in nutrients, especially vitamin B1 and vitamin E
\n\ud83c\udf3e Helps preserve the floodplain ecosystem \u2014 an important habitat for diverse native aquatic species<\/p>\n

\ud83d\udc9b Thanks to this extraordinary adaptability, farmers were no longer fearful of losing their crops to floods. By 1930, floating rice in An Giang had expanded to 137,000 hectares, becoming a key agricultural strength of the province and supporting livelihoods throughout the flood-prone region.<\/p>\n
