The civil affairs departments of Fengning Manchu Autonomous County and Weichang Manchu Mongol Autonomous County in Chengde City, Hebei Province, revealed on the 4th that the two counties suffered severe drought and low-temperature freezing disasters. Up to now, the total area affected by crops has reached 1,309,700 mu, and the direct economic loss has reached 787 million yuan.
According to reports, Fengning County suffered from persistent high temperatures and droughts in August, which caused a general decline in groundwater levels. Crops under the dam under the main grain-producing areas were seriously affected, and large-area crops were dry and curled to death. On August 21st, after the high temperature and drought, the area on the Bashang area was frosted in advance, half a month earlier than the historical average frost period, causing large areas of corn to be frosted and dead, and other crops such as wheat, vegetables and miscellaneous grains were reduced.
On the same day, most of the towns and towns in Weichang County also had rare low-temperature frosts for many years. The frost period was nearly one month earlier than normal, and the lowest temperature dropped to -3 °C. On August 22, the minimum temperature on the dam fell to -4.6 °C, causing severe droughts in the county's crops and 30 townships affected.
According to the civil affairs department of Chengde, the drought period is the key period for crop grouting. The low-temperature freezing disaster is earlier than in previous years. The two kinds of disasters have a great impact on the crops such as corn, potato, wheat and vegetables to be harvested.
According to preliminary statistics, as of now, the total area of ​​crops affected by Fengning and Weichang is 1,309,700 mu, and the direct economic loss is 787 million yuan. Among them, the area of ​​disaster-affected arable land in Fengning County is 710,000 mu, the area of ​​cultivated arable land is 642,000 mu, and the economic loss is 370 million yuan; the area affected by corn in Weichang County is 305,800 mu, the area affected by potato is 268,000 mu, and the area affected by other crops and vegetables is 25.9 million mu. The losses totaled more than 417 million yuan.
After the disaster, the Mayor of Chengde City, Zhao Fenglou, went to the two counties to check the disaster on September 3. Zhao Fenglou stressed that it is necessary to actively carry out self-rescue in production, strive to minimize disaster losses, and earnestly do a good job in basic living arrangements for people in need in the disaster areas.
