Heavy snowfall in Pingliang, Gansu, overnight into the winter, which industries are affected as a result?

The transportation industry, agriculture, animal husbandry and tourism have all been greatly affected.

Just when the whole country is feeling the coolness of autumn, Pingliang has already felt the winter atmosphere in advance overnight. Early in the morning, the sky is full of snow, even the branches of the trees are full of frost, however, the sudden drop in temperature to the local transportation industry, agriculture, animal husbandry and tourism have been adversely affected.

I. Impact on transportation

The snow not only covered the roofs of homes and distant slopes, but also caused a large amount of snow on the roads, which brought great inconvenience to the local transportation. Dealing with snow takes some time, and because of the snow just after a period of time in the temperature has risen resulting in the melting of the road snow, and then with the temperature drop again these water directly frozen into ice, which will undoubtedly increase the difficulty of cleaning the road surface, and the road surface ice for the passenger and cargo transportation is also very dangerous, so the transport sector emergency stopping a number of passenger shuttle buses, a number of cargo road to implement the The government has also taken steps to ensure the safety of the transportation system.

And for ordinary residents to go out before you must understand the weather and road traffic, if there is a closed section of the road to be detoured in advance, when driving to pay attention to the speed and maintain a safe distance from the car in front of you, after all, the brakes on the ice will not be so sensitive, driving too fast or spacing is too small are likely to be in danger.

Two, the impact of agriculture

October, it is a lot of agricultural planting areas facing the fall harvest season, although this year's rainstorms came a little fierce some, washed away a lot of crops, resulting in soaring prices of vegetables, but the good thing is that a lot of farmers rushed to the rainstorms did not completely destroy the whole house before they have been a lot of harvesting, to avoid a lot of losses. However, Pingliang's overnight winter so that farmers are unprepared, but also too late to do the appropriate anti-freeze measures for vegetables, resulting in sudden cold temperature changes in agriculture under the large-scale reduction in production, heavy losses.

Three, the impact of pastoralism

The sudden drop in temperature to the local livestock industry has also brought a lot of trouble, thanks to the amount of rainfall this year's grass growth is also relatively good, but a heavy snowfall so that these fresh grass all freeze dead, resulting in livestock nowhere to find food, and many farmers have not prepared for them to winter licorice, coupled with the inconvenience of transportation, so that the livestock of the meal are a problem, and some of the The survival rate of the young animals is also unknown, as they have difficulty adapting to the sudden change in weather.

The local tourism industry could have used a boost from the Golden Week to welcome some tourists, but the stoppage of passenger transportation is bound to keep them away, and the continued cooling weather is also daunting.
