Can subsidies reverse young farmers leaving the Mekong Delta?
After helping my uncle harvest rice in An Giang for three seasons, I've noticed how much the younger generation is abandoning small-scale farming for factory jobs in Binh Duong. The local agricultural cooperative offers training and shared machinery, but participation has dropped by nearly 40% since 2020. Do you think government subsidies for young farmers and better rural infrastructure could actually reverse this trend, or are we watching the end of family-run agriculture in the Mekong Delta?
