South Asian subcontinent.

The Sriharikota launch site of Tianzhu Space Systems is the most important space launch center in Tianzhu.

It is located on the island of Sri Harikota on the east coast of the South Asian subcontinent, 100 km north of Madras, with geographical coordinates of 13 degrees north latitude and 80 degrees east longitude.

The climate here is influenced by the southwest monsoon and the northeast monsoon, and October and November are the heavy rainy seasons every year, but most months of the year are sunny and sunny enough to carry out outdoor static test runs and launch tests.

The launch site houses test, assembly and launch facilities for large multi-stage rockets and satellite launch vehicles, as well as tracking, telemetry and communication stations for the Tianzhu satellite.

The Tianzhu Space Research Center has also expanded its solid booster plant here, which can produce large-scale propellant columns for multi-stage rocket engines.

Although their funds increased greatly due to the stimulation of Dongtang Aerospace, the head of the space base, Sinbad, was not too happy.

He stood in front of his office window with a frown, looking out at the fields in the distance, and the dead yellow was full of them.

May is the beginning of the rainy season in the South Asian subcontinent, which runs from May to November, but the main rainfall is concentrated in October and November.

This year's May rainfall was very low, only about one-tenth of that of previous years.

Sinbad picked up the report on the table, this is a satellite cloud image taken by a meteorological satellite, from the satellite cloud image, judging from the satellite cloud image, the rainfall in the next week or two may still be about the same as in May.

Perhaps many people have the impression that Tianzhu's climate and cultivated land conditions are very superior.

The tropical monsoon climate plus the rain and heat at the same time, and the three ripe crops a year, it looks good, but this is only the data on paper.

In fact, the precipitation of Tianzhu is not as much as imagined, the precipitation of the whole year is generally between 500 ~ 800 mm, plus it is very Tianzhu characteristics, a year's rain, three months will be over.

In fact, if you look at the natural belt map of the world, you can see the real natural situation of Tianzhu, most of which are savannahs, only part of the windward slope area is monsoon forest, and a small amount of tropical desert.

Strictly speaking, Tianzhu should be mostly a savannah climate, because its monsoon is particularly obvious, so it is classified as a tropical monsoon climate.

However, due to the arid climate in the Deccan Plateau and other areas, cotton, wheat and other crops are generally grown, rather than the rice that we generally replenish, plus the lack of water, so in fact, there is generally only one crop a year.

In addition, the precipitation in Tianzhu is good on the books, even in places with less water, there are about 500~800 mm.

But do not forget that the main body of the South Asian subcontinent is located in the tropics, and the evaporation is very large.

For example, in the humid area of Mongolia, Manchuria has only more than 300 mm of precipitation, and because Manchuria is at about 50 degrees north latitude, the winter is long and the summer is short, and the evaporation is weak, so it is still a humid area.

The precipitation in the eastern part of Qiongzhou Island is about 800~1000 mm, but it is still a semi-arid area due to low latitude, high temperature and large evaporation.

Most of the grain-rich areas of the Tianzhu Peninsula are in three areas, one is Punjab, one is the Gangetic Plain, and one is Bengal.

Bangladesh is a river delta, so the soil is relatively fertile and the rainfall is very high

The Gangetic Plain is also relatively abundant in water, and the soil on both sides of the river is relatively fertile (in fact, it is only slightly better than most areas in Tianzhu), so the agricultural conditions are relatively good.

Punjab, on the other hand, is bordered by a tropical monsoon (steppe) climate and a tropical desert climate.

Specifically, the Sahel region near the Sahara Desert may have less precipitation than it.

However, Punjab has the addition of the Tianzhu River, and there is no shortage of irrigation water. In addition, the temperature is high, the temperature difference between day and night is large, and the yield is the highest in the whole day.

Just like the place with the highest yield in the Eastern Tang Dynasty, it is actually in the Hetao Plain in Ningxia, plugged into the south of the Yangtze River, and even rice can be grown.

Moreover, the watermelon, red dates, wolfberries and other crops in the Hetao Plain of Ningxia are of very good quality.

On the whole, the agricultural environment conditions of Tianzhu are very poor, waterlogging is dead, rainy places are mostly located in mountainous areas, and the plains are also prone to flooding.

Most of the arid areas are located on the flat Deccan Plateau, so this vast land is basically abandoned.

Due to the lack of precipitation and severe drought in most areas of Tianzhu, it can only achieve one crop a year, which is not as good as the North China Plain (three crops in two years, and two crops a year in some areas).

It is not as good as the Chengdu Plain, Jianghan Plain, and the lower Yangtze River Plain, which are perfectly coordinated with water and heat.

In addition, Tianzhu is located in the tropics, low soil fertility, and large evaporation in the tropics, the natural conditions of Tianzhu's agriculture are not as good as those in China.

Its advantage is nothing more than more light and heat, which is no longer sufficient, but excessive, which is fatal, which leads to the drought in Tianzhu every year is particularly serious.

As for agricultural technology or something, it's basically the icing on the cake, meaning.

You don't see that the agricultural technology of the Sun Kingdom, John's family, and Judah is already at the advanced level in the world, but they still import grain and other crops.

Sinbad put down the satellite image of the South Asian subcontinent and picked up another satellite image.

This is Tianzhu's neighbor's minibus.

Although the minibuses have also suffered a severe drought this year, they can now use fresh water from the desalination plant to combat the drought as the desalination plant has been put into operation.

Of course, on Sinbad's desk, there is another satellite monitoring report, and that report is from the Eastern Tang Dynasty.

But after he watched it once, he didn't want to watch it.

It's so shocking, what a luxury it is to have a man-made lake in the middle of the desert!

The so-called man-made lake photographed by Tianzhu satellite is actually a reservoir on the northern line of Mongolia, because the output of the desalination plant is very huge, in line with the principle of no waste, Dongyin Water Group and cities along the line have cooperated to create a lot of reservoirs.

These reservoirs are an insurance policy that allows the local authorities to quickly pump water from the reservoirs in case of a pipe problem.

Of course, these reservoirs can also effectively regulate the local climate and make the local climate more humid.

For this kind of behavior of the Eastern Tang Dynasty, the expressions of Tianzhu and Tuao, who are seriously drought, this year are envy, jealousy and hatred.

I'm almost dried, and you're making lakes out of fresh water! Seeing that Tianzhu and Tuao beat their chests, why didn't they invent seawater desalination technology by themselves.

Tianzhu is hesitant about whether to introduce a desalination plant, and everyone knows that the desalination plant in Dongtang seems to be unconditional, but in fact it is a conspiracy.

Buying a seawater desalination plant is equivalent to giving the handle to Dongtang by himself, and Tianzhu can't bear it.

As for the capricious Tuao, they are really hungry and thirsty now.

Tuao, Canberra.

"Mr. Love, if our drought situation this year is already very severe." Kasro, the head of the Tuao Meteorological Department, said helplessly.

Raff, who is the head of the water department in Tuao: "Of course I know that the drought is very serious, so let's talk about how to solve it. ”

For this ball, all the high-level levels of the water conservancy department looked at each other.

How to fix it? Solve the fart! We are not God, and we can conjure water out of thin air. A group of high-level officials secretly complained.
