China issued an alert as heatwave and drought put autumn harvest at risk urging local authorities to take all available measures to ensure crops survive the hottest summer on record.  Mrs.  Lile, a grape farmer who lives on the outskirts of Jiujiang city, explained that her grapes were 40 percent affected by the drought as no one wants to buy soft grapes.  However, living by the hydro plant benefits her as other people struggle.  'I don't think to move to another place as food and drought are natural', she added.  Jiangxi Province has been experiencing severe drought since 15 July.  China's long-running and severe heatwave caused a record-breaking drought across the country, causing some rives to dry up, including parts of the Yangtze River.  A lady from Jiangxi Province, Mrs.  Jiang, complained that her garden is severely affected by the heat and lack of water.  'Crops died', she said.  China's usually water-rich south has been power rationing causing blackouts as the hydropower capacity drastically decreased.  Last week Sichuan province rationed public electricity usage or suspended the power supply to thousands of factories due to the power shortage.
