More Than 4 000 Hectares Of Vines Snapped in Gard - France

To cope with the wine crisis, the state is launching a snapping campaign. It started last January and should continue until June. On this date, more than 4,000 hectares of vines in the Gard will have disappeared.

(220812) -- NANNING, Aug. 12, 2022 (Xinhua) -- Aerial photo shows the fishway of the main dam in Qianjiang River of the Dateng Gorge water conservancy project in Guiping City, south China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, Aug. 9, 2022. Located in the city of Guiping, the project under construction is designed for multiple purposes including flood control, navigation, power generation and irrigation. The hydropower project is built on the area which is an important fish habitat due to its complex flow conditions. In order not to disturb fish from migrating to spawn, a rare dual fishway design for both the main dam and the auxiliary dam was put forward at the very beginning of the construction, looking nothing like an artificial passageway for migrating fishes. Meanwhile, with the formation of a team of professional technicians, relevant rare fish conservation center and fish propagation stations have been accordingly built at the Dateng Gorge water conservancy project, so as to assist the monitoring,
