Li Wenjing, China

In our village, almost every household has a donkey. We use donkeys to carry things between home and farmland. Our donkey carries water to the farmland for irrigation. It is very helpful. It is always far from our home to our farmland. Without the donkey, it would be very difficult for us.

 

Water from our village tank is controlled by the junction box in this picture. Every day at 11am we have running water for an hour, until 12pm. Villagers will be at home waiting for the water.

 

We use a bucket or containers to collect water for the day's use. We will not have water to use if we miss this time.
