越南湄公河三角洲水稻产能与沿海淹没暴露

Quote supports Mekong Delta shares of 52% national paddy production and 82% summer-autumn rice. Table 8 values 12,759,460 / 65,700 lack a quoted row, horizon/scenario headers and adaptation context; excluded from population summaries. Not restoration outcomes.

Reported citation: Climate Risk Country Profile: Vietnam · 2021 · PDF page 16

About 52% of paddy rice production is from the Mekong River Delta: 82% of the summer autumn rice is produced in the Mekong River Delta, and another 18% in the Red River Delta.
