On June 7, the People's Committee of Ba Be district quickly reported the results of testing strange rice varieties that households bought on Facebook to plant.
Accordingly, a total of 5 households in Khuoi Tau village, Cao Thuong commune bought this rice variety and planted it on an area of 4,050 square meters.
Mr. NVL ordered this strange rice variety via Facebook. The rice variety was packaged in a package with foreign characters and the code number VST 899. After placing the order, Mr. L. had the seller deliver it to his home.
Rice seeds bought on Facebook have foreign words.
After sowing strange rice seeds bought on Facebook, the rice did not bloom.
Ba Be District Agricultural Service Center conducted an inspection, the results showed that the area planted with strange rice varieties mostly did not flower, some only flowered sporadically.
Unable to harvest despite much effort in planting and caring for the crops, people had to let the buffaloes out into the fields to eat.
Ba Be District Agricultural Service Center said that this strange rice variety is not included in the production management structure of Bac Kan province and Ba Be district.
The reason why the rice does not flower may be because this is a variety that reacts to short-day light. This variety can only be planted in the summer crop, but people planted it in the spring crop, resulting in no harvest.
