NGO helps farmers battle drought

His throat is dry and his feet hurt - every day.

That's life for Gao Zhonghua ever since the most devastating drought in a century struck Guizhou province.

The 30-year-old farmer, in Changshun county's Jiaoma village, now makes a three hour trek two or three times a day to retrieve water from a shrinking stream. He can carry enough for his family of six to drink and cook. And that's about it.
