Financial aid

Tsamjo Drolma's family of four was registered as impoverished last year by the Lhunze county government in the Tibet autonomous region. The 49-year-old mother explained to China Daily some of the subsidies her family receives as a result.

About 300 yuan ($46) to plant grain on the family's 0.3 hectares of farmland.

About 700 yuan to maintain their more than 34 hectares of grassland.
