The solution for rural areas was to grow crops in their garden, or buy farmland to harvest crops. The downside is that some crops are not able to survive the cold and harsh winters of Vietnam, some people were local enough to go to supermarkets, to purchase food. People who were unfortunate, had to go next door and ask for food. In cities, supermarkets didn't have a wide range of food. Rice was the main food the Vietnamese ate before the market grew.  ]]> 2019-01-11 14:07:26 UTC https://padlet.com/malotts1/4aev1q75cpe2/wish/319665243 The Evolution Of Rice (Facts): malotts1 https://padlet.com/malotts1/4aev1q75cpe2/wish/319670114 Rice represents 60% of cultivated areas.
