The economy of rural life

In Vietnam three
quarters of its land is
used for farming and
about 80% of

Vietnamese people live
in the rural areas. Two
thirds of the workforce
work in agriculture.

Conditions in rural areas
are tough and farmers
need to work long

hours, and the children
must work after or

before school to earn
money for the family.
At harvest time the
children must help at
home and not go to
school.

have been heavily degraded by over-use, erosion,
