A video of an old man wading through the water to pick winter dates
It has aroused widespread attention on the Internet
The video was filmed in Dali County on October 9. In the video, an old man in waterproof clothing stands in a winter jujube garden where the water is about to reach his knees, next to a "boat" made of wooden planks or plastic barrels, loaded with freshly picked winter dates.
There are a lot of falling winter dates floating on the water... The old man, whose hair was gray, bent over and pulled the "boat" with one hand, struggling to transport the winter dates to a place where there was no water, and his wife stood at the water's edge to meet him.
The video said that this is a jujube farmer couple in Dali County
It is difficult to pick dates in the stagnant water, just to ensure that the harvest is reduced
Netizens
"It's really not easy for farmers, and their hearts are sad and tearful"
"Hope the disaster passes early"
During a visit to Dali, a reporter from Huashang Bao-Ersanli Information saw that in the affected farmland of Chaoyi and Zhaodu, there were more cases of winter jujube greenhouses being flooded. On the south side of Chaodu Road in Chaoyi Town, there is a winter jujube greenhouse, after the flooding of the Luo River, the river water poured into the greenhouse, the winter jujube greenhouse that adults could walk in, now only the top is exposed to the water; in the civilian village of Zhaodu Town, the winter jujube greenhouses on both sides of the road have also entered the water, and the water level is higher.
The disaster struck
Fruit growers have not yet sold late ripening winter dates
Blisters are hard to protect against trees and facilities
Mr. Huang' family, a fruit farmer in Zhaodu Town, planted 20 acres of winter dates, and the river water that flooded the embankment before the evacuation had entered the jujube garden, and now although he has settled down with relatives and friends, Mr. Huang's heart has still been hanging in the winter jujube garden. He said that there are four or five thousand acres of winter dates in the village, mainly late-ripening varieties, which in previous years could not be sold out until late October, and this time was the time of harvest, and the winter dates planted by the family began to be picked, and there were not many of them sold.
Mr. Zhu's family in the same village also planted more than 20 acres of winter dates, and in order to take care of it, he installed video surveillance on the ground. Today, Mr. Zhu and his family have evacuated to the centralized resettlement site, but they still take out their mobile phones from time to time to check the water potential of the winter jujube garden. At about 12:00 noon on the 11th, he saw through his mobile phone that the water in the winter jujube garden was very deep, almost reaching the top of the greenhouse. "The shed is 3 meters high, and now the water level is only 70 or 80 centimeters from the roof of the shed." He said helplessly that only about a third of the 20-acre winter dates were sold, and now most of the trees are soaked in water. Even if the water recedes, this year's harvest cannot be guaranteed. Winter jujube trees soaked in water for a long time will also lead to death. After the flood, these trees are almost impossible to keep, greenhouses and other facilities may not be able to be used again, coupled with the losses this year and next year, the loss is expected to be millions of yuan.
Zhao Du Town Yantong Village a villager surnamed Zhao said that Dali County is famous for planting winter dates, the county planting winter dates area of about 400,000 mu, jujube trees planted to harvest fruit takes 3-4 years, including greenhouses, each mu of early investment is between 50,000-200,000 yuan. Replanting means not only a large investment, but also a 3-4 year period of growth without a harvest.
According to incomplete statistics, as of 22:00 on October 9, Dali County had suffered a total of 239,000 people, 491,000 mu of farmland had been flooded, corn, carrots, peanuts, winter dates, autumn peppers, persimmon trees and other crops had been affected, and the direct economic losses after preliminary statistics reached 461 million yuan. At the same time, the progress of the autumn harvest in 2021 has been seriously affected, as of now, Dali County harvested 79,000 mu of corn and 11,000 mu of vegetables.

Resolutely and decisively transfer to avoid danger!
The Shaanxi Provincial Emergency Management Department issued an emergency notice
It is required to further strengthen the transfer of disaster prevention and risk avoidance personnel
On October 11, the Provincial Emergency Management Department issued an emergency notice to further strengthen the transfer of disaster prevention and risk avoidance personnel.
Recently, the province continued to rain, the situation of natural disasters is extremely severe, especially during the National Day holiday, the command center of the Provincial Emergency Management Department received a total of 12 reports of natural disasters such as landslides, collapses, mudslides, etc., resulting in 12 deaths and 2 injuries. The provincial party committee and the provincial government attach great importance to it, and require further strengthening the bottom-line thinking, always putting the safety of the people's lives in the first place, carrying forward the spirit of continuous combat, ensuring that the thinking is not loose, the intensity is not reduced, and the requirements are not lowered, and various measures are implemented to ensure safety during the flood.
The circular stresses: It is necessary to fully understand the tremendous threat to the safety of the people's lives caused by torrential rains and floods and geological disasters, fully understand the important role of the work of transferring and avoiding dangers in reducing casualties, resolutely regard ensuring the safety of personnel's lives as the most important task, firmly establish a bottom-line thinking, shoulder political responsibility, resolutely overcome the mentality of paralysis and laxity and the feeling of being war-weary and afraid of difficulties, base ourselves on preventing major floods, resisting major floods, grabbing major dangers, and relieving major disasters, further strengthen the work of transferring personnel to avoid danger, and do our utmost to prevent casualties.
Keep a close eye on the key difficulties and weak links in flood prevention and flood control, and organize forces to carry out in-depth investigation of hidden risks and hidden dangers in embankments, reservoirs (hydropower stations), silt dams, flood channels, projects under construction, major projects, and important facilities. Increase the intensity of inspection of reservoir dams and tailings reservoirs, strictly implement the dispatch and operation plan of reservoirs during the flood season, and strictly prohibit unauthorized operation beyond the flood limit.
Pay close attention to mountain conditions, water conditions, flood conditions, and disaster conditions, strengthen monitoring and forecasting and early warning, strengthen overall coordination, and timely consult and judge. It is necessary to overcome empiricism and think of the situation more complicatedly, and when it is prejudged that a major flood situation may occur, the relevant responsible persons should resolutely transfer the personnel in the danger zone to ensure that they should be turned around and should be transferred early. In particular, it is necessary to implement "one-to-one" transfer and avoidance measures for the elderly, left-behind children, the sick, and the disabled.
