Cam Ranh city in Khanh Hoa, Vietnam, is dealing with a significant issue where nearly 400 tons of grouper, raised by local farmer Mr. Nguyen Trung Can and others, are unable to be sold due to the COVID-19 pandemic's impact on the seafood market. The situation has led to a decrease in fish prices and financial losses for the farmers, who face high costs for feeding and maintaining the fish.

Farmers are seeking solutions and are concerned about the future of aquaculture in the area.
