Tridge summary

Prices of vegetables, tubers, and fruits have seen a significant increase at traditional markets in Hanoi, with some items doubling or tripling in price. The price hike is due to heavy rainfall damage and reduced yield, exacerbated by the challenges of transportation and circulation. The situation has led to a limited supply of green vegetables, which makes up 60-70% of Hanoi's daily requirement. However, the increase in prices is expected to be temporary as the weather improves and supply stabilizes. Hanoi is also exploring ways to boost crop productivity by replicating leaf vegetable production models that use Passlite coatings from non-woven fabrics to protect against adverse weather conditions, pests, and diseases.
