Mekong Delta was formed by sediment deposited by the Mekong River and the process still continues today. The land of the Mekong Delta is renowned for its richness and most of it is under cultivation. Its products include rice, coconut, sugarcane, fruits and fish. A major activity in the Mekong Delta is boating.
