Rain adds to watermelon growers' sales woes

A watermelon grower attends to his crop while waiting for wholesalers at a market for agricultural products in Suyu township of Nanning city, South China's Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region, June 13, 2011. Persistent rainfall in the area has gravely affected the growth of this year's crop causing the selling price for watermelons to drop to below 0.2 yuan ($0.03) per kilogram, compared with 1.5 yuan at this time last year [Photo/Xinhua]
