In the more than 300 acres of rice fields of Zeng Xinwu, the middle rice is planted. Generally, it is mature in the early autumn seasons, and now it has been harvested almost. He told Jiupai News that during this time, the government issued a pump and installed the meter to mobilize the farmers to pump water to irrigate rice. "But the water is still not enough. It is the critical period of the growth of medium rice. There are water pumps in some places, there are no water pumping in some places, the reservoir is dry, and it is high temperature." Although there are measures, the drought still affects the rice Growth and mature.

Peng Zhangwei said that for the safety of food, it is necessary to keep food first, which means that rice is the main and other economic crops. "With the harvest of medium rice, some fields do not need water. Some late rice fields just happened to be pumped and raised flowers, and the sowing of medium rice was a little later, so we needed water. . So that they can no longer be drought. "

The lotus pond reservoir and Longxi dam reservoir located on the side of Poyang Lake did not release water during the flood season. Today, the water storage inside looks particularly precious: "There are water in previous years, but basically it has not played a great role. This year It is especially useful to meet drought. "Peng Zhangwei said. Today, these two reservoirs are providing agricultural irrigation water for towns near their respective towns.

In the introduction of Peng Zhangwei, the local "a total of more than 80,000 acres of rice in the sowing area, more than 10,000 acres of the morning and evening rice, add up to more than 100,000 acres." After the harvest of 80%of the proportion, the harvest of rice this year, this year Almost the dust has been settled.

"Five6,000 acres of affected by the affected and 1,000 acres of harvest. This year's rice harvest, according to the figures we know, should be reduced by about 10 % to 20 %." It affects yield. The local insurance emergency measures were initiated for the first time, and no matter large retail investors, they all touched the market. "This year's drought is very serious. As long as the case is reported, it will be compensated, but it is a problem."

Peng Zhangwei introduced that a mu of 24 yuan per acre and 25%of farmers, that is, the insurance premiums of 6 yuan, and the remaining 75%were subsidized by the government. After the drought, the proportion of losses compensation is set according to the growth cycle of crops. If the seedling stage is damaged, it is calculated according to the seedling period. If it is during the dumping period, the degree of damage is calculated according to the spike period. It is defined as a mature period by the grouting period. "It has been divided into about four periods, and the compensation standards are different, with a maximum of 600 acres. We have a high degree of insurance popularization here and basically buy it."

Zeng Xinwu told Jiupai News that there will be some national subsidies, but they still have a loss this year. Early seeds, fertilizers, and equipment have invested a lot of money. When the rice was sold after being dried and dried, "only 9 cents a pound." He thought the price was too low.
