Weather in Dancheng, Zhoukou

Affected by vortex and cold air, moderate to heavy rain began to fall in Sanchuan on the 2 nd, and "Ganlu" lifted the drought in the field, which was extremely beneficial to wheat growth at jointing and booting stage.

According to the weather forecast, from 20: 00 on the 2nd to 08: 00 on the 3rd, the maximum precipitation in Zhoukou occurred in Xingzhuang, Shenqiu, with a precipitation of 46.8mm, 30 regional stations above 25mm, 78 from 10 to 25mm, and the rest below 10mm.

Tan Yanjing, deputy director and engineer of Zhoukou Meteorological Observatory, said: "At present, Zhoukou wheat is at jointing and booting stage. Due to less precipitation in the early stage, drought occurred in some areas. This precipitation will alleviate the drought and is very beneficial to the booting and heading stages of wheat.

"

Zhang Jun, a big grain grower, planted 1 10,000 mu of land in Dancheng National Agricultural High-tech Zone. After breakfast, he rushed to the field to check the soil moisture and seedlings. Looking at the "full" wheat in the field, Zhang Jun was very happy.

He said, "Spring rain is as expensive as oil. The rain came very timely, which eased the drought and laid a good foundation for our bumper harvest this year.

"

Agricultural experts pointed out that although the precipitation lifted the drought, it would lead to excessive humidity in the field, and diseases such as wheat root rot and stem rot were easy to develop and spread. After the precipitation stops, farmers should make good use of fine weather to prevent and control wheat root rot, stem rot, scab and aphids.

Zhou, vice president and researcher of dancheng Academy of Agricultural Sciences, said: "Wheat has entered the booting stage, and the absorption of water and nutrients has entered a critical period, so this rain is of great help to wheat growth. If it rains for several days, farmers should pay attention to the problems of wheat diseases and insect pests in the field, strengthen management in time, and carry out one spray and three defenses.

"

Meteorologists reminded that after the precipitation, there will be 4-5 easterly winds and 6-7 gusts in Zhoukou, and farmers' friends should do a good job in wind prevention and reinforcement of facility agriculture.
