Halfaboy 2,634 Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 Yesterday I came across this worm. No idea what kind of species this is. Looking at his claws it could be dangerous. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Halfaboy 2,634 Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 I have put these pictures in the nature section. If the mods do not agree everything can be moved. Travelling through Isaan the last couple of days I noticed the dramatic impact of the draught. Thousands and thousands of rai of agricultural land are suffering from the lack of rain. Sources as pools and (small) rivers are (almost) empty. At some places the farmers are trying to squeeze the last drops from the water-flows I made some pictures to get an impression. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Halfaboy 2,634 Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 As far as you can look rice fields are brown because of the dying rice plants. In almost all of these areas this year there will be no harvest at all. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Halfaboy 2,634 Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 Also mansapparang is suffering. The somewhat bigger plants seem to survive (assuming there will be some rain soon). Small plants are dying everywhere. Replanting is almost impossible by the lack of planting material. In the area I have visited prices went up. Under normal circumstance one stick (which can be cut in three pieces) goes for 0,5 Baht per stick. Currently prices are quoted of 3 baht per one stick. See pictures of a partly replanted mansapparang field. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
