Does the rain affect the wheat harvest now?

Of course it's bad for the wheat harvest! There are two aspects to consider its shortcomings.

1. Not conducive to harvesting. First of all, strong wind and heavy rain will cause a large area of wheat with full grains to lodging under the action of gravity, which is not only conducive to mechanized harvesting, but also conducive to artificial harvesting. Long-term rainy weather will lead to wheat seed germination and grain yield reduction.

2. This is not conducive to cold drying and storage. On rainy days, without sunshine, wheat cools and dries slowly, so it can't be stored as soon as possible. There is still the danger of germination tide, leading to unnecessary losses!
