Rising water level caused many ornamental tree growing areas in Phu Thuong peach village, Nhat Tan and Tu Lien kumquat village to be severely flooded. The trees were submerged in water for several days, causing root rot and mass die-offs, leaving many households with long-standing traditional livelihoods empty-handed.
