Water Conservancy Works Bring Bumper Harvest To People's Commune In Szechuan Province. This five-kilometre long embankment girdling mountains and cliffs was built by the poor and lower-middle peasants of Lungshan Commune in southern Szechuan Province during the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution. It has not only helped expand the acreage of irrigated farmland in Lungahan, but also provided water for the communes in adjacent areas.
