The Ministry of Agriculture, the Ministry of Water Resources, the Emergency Management Department and the China Meteorological Bureau jointly issued an urgent notice, demanding that the relevant areas not relax their disaster reduction work and make every effort to win the tough battle against high temperature, hot summer and drought.

It is required that all levels of agriculture, rural areas, water conservancy, emergency and meteorological departments should strengthen emergency duty, strengthen communication and consultation, accurately dispatch disasters, judge the impact, and release early warning information in time.

The notice stressed that the water conservancy department should strengthen the scientific dispatching management of water sources such as rivers, lakes and reservoirs, and strive to ensure the demand for agricultural irrigation water; Take measures such as emergency water transfer, new water supply, installation of temporary water pumps and peak-shifting irrigation according to local conditions. The emergency department should start and adjust the emergency response in time, and organize water supply and life assistance to the affected people. Meteorological departments should dispatch business aircraft to drought-stricken areas in time and prepare enough materials such as rain-increasing rockets.

The notice stressed that in areas with irrigation conditions, key measures such as deep water cooling, small water irrigation and running water cooling should be implemented; In hilly areas, "Wang Tiantian", terminal irrigation areas and other water-deficient areas, it is necessary to lift water and deliver water through machinery and wells, seize the favorable opportunity to carry out artificial precipitation enhancement, and organize socialized professional service teams to focus on spraying foliar fertilizer, drought-resistant water-retaining agent and other operations; For plots that have been seriously affected or even lost, it is necessary to replant sweet potatoes, miscellaneous grains and other late autumn crops in time.

The notice requires that panicle fertilizer and foliar fertilizer should be scientifically applied to mid-season rice with reduced seed setting rate due to high temperature and heat damage; Double-cropping late rice is at jointing and booting stage, so it is necessary to store water in advance and apply chemical fertilizer in time at booting stage; Measures such as "one spray and more promotion" should be implemented in the high temperature area in the south to increase production steadily. At the same time, vegetables, fruits, tea and other crops should also implement disaster reduction measures.
