The soil moisture of summer sowing corn is poor. Should we sow or water first?

Farmers in many areas are the busiest time, that is, harvesting winter wheat to ensure that the particles are returned to the warehouse and sowing the next crop in time, so the double-grab season is almost continuous rotation. After wheat harvest, poor soil moisture was found when sowing summer corn. Should we sow or water first?

Uncle Zhang, a farmer in Shandong Province, said that the weather and climate are slightly abnormal and some are dry, which is not conducive to sowing summer corn. This is related to the warmer weather in winter last year and less rain in spring. Then, when sowing summer corn, due to the lack of soil moisture, summer corn is vulnerable to the harm of "yellow moisture", and there are phenomena such as no emergence and weak emergence, which ultimately affects the full seedling rate and yield of summer corn.

Uncle Zhang said, should we sow or water the land first? This can be considered in different situations.

Manual operation requires a big hoe to pull ditches, or a shovel to dig holes, or a small hammer to pull. When the soil moisture is poor, the land is hard. You can't pull it with a hoe, a shovel or a small hammer.

Therefore, water comes first, not too much water, which is not conducive to farming. At this time, spray water evenly, and it is advisable not to accumulate water on the ground, so you can sow the next day.

Uncle Zhang said that in Shandong, we all harvest wheat and sow corn directly, using a large corn seeder. Corn and fertilizer go down to the ground together. The seeder has a bucket for fertilizer and a bucket for corn. When you go down to the ground, there is a gap between corn and fertilizer. So as not to burn the corn seedlings.

In order to save trouble and convenience, chemical fertilizers are put on the ground when corn is sown, and they are all slow-release fertilizers, which can meet the growth needs of corn at all stages.

After the corn is planted, it usually comes out five days later. Watch the weather forecast. If it rains in recent days, we won't water the land. If there is no rain, water the land. It is not appropriate to water the land at this time. One is afraid of rushing out corn seeds and fertilizers. Second: when the land is irrigated by flood, it is easy to harden and difficult to manage.

Land with water should be hoed when it can be used, otherwise it will crack. Cutting land can make the soil fluffy, which is beneficial to the rapid and even emergence of corn.
