The drought in Guangdong is very serious.A video-conference for "Fighting the Drought" was held last Friday in Guangzhou,the capital city.
The report issued by the conference members said that the drought had hit more than 1.2 million acres of arable land.In the whole province,889,000 people are relying on a discontinuous supply of drinking water.The water stored in 303 reservoirs is 14.4 billion cubic meters,1.5 billion cubic meters less than in 2003.
Water is extremely important for crops in two phases,the time when crops are planted and the time when they bloom.Now was the very time for crops to be in bloom;however,none of the grains harvested were fat.Even if we had water now,it would not change anything.The drought has destroyed farmers' half a year of hard work.
