North Korea's office workers and factory labourers have been dispatched to farming areas around the country to join a fight against drought, state media reported on Wednesday, amid concerns over prolonged food shortages.
North Korean leader Kim Jong Un had called for measures to improve a tense food situation caused by the coronavirus pandemic and typhoons, despite slight improvements early last year.

If you are in a drought area, you must capture all rainfall on buildings. You must increase the Organic Matter in your soil to hold water. A 1% increase in the OM content of your soil will allow you to store an additional 25,000 gallons of water per acre. In severe areas where you get a lot of your on just a few days, dig swales (little trenches)) across the property emptying into a small as yet unfilled pond. The swales and the pond will allow excessive rain to be captured over a period of several days.
