KLANG: A salty threat is slowly making its way into some of the nation’s padi fields, which may create food security issues in future if not properly addressed.
Researchers say seawater seepage into padi fields has so far been detected in coastal areas and rice granaries in Kerian and Kuala Kedah in Kedah; some areas in Kelantan; Rompin in Pahang; and Sabak Bernam in Selangor.
