The southwestern province of Guizhou is one of the areas most seriously-affected by drought. The hot and dry weather has lasted for over a month, and unfortunately, things are not likely to improve soon.

Bare hands cannot reach the bottom of these cracks.

Similar situations exists in almost all of the crop fields in this small county. Some villagers planted corn, which could better handle dry weather. But the results were bad.

Villager of Haungping County, Guizhou, said, "The corn turns out to be like this. It is of no use except for feeding pigs and chickens. "

Water is often used more than once before becoming drinking water for cattle. But sometimes, no appreciation is shown.
