Nature Healing Of War Defoliation Scarred Vietnam
In South Vietnam three years after mass defoliation ended, nature shows slow signs of recovery though forests and fields remain scarred. A DoD study may guide replants, but most farmers continue without compensation. Mangroves and inland forests face long recovery, with health concerns linked to herbicides and dioxins. USAID funds reforestation efforts, while fisheries attribute declines to overfishing and mangrove loss.
