In the past week, precipitation occurred in most agricultural areas of the country, and less rainfall in some spring plowing areas affected agricultural production. At the same time, excessive rainfall in some producing areas where wheat was in the grain-filling stage had an impact on agricultural production. The temperature difference of 36 degrees between the Northwest and Xinjiang is bad for production and life. In general, disasters in some places were serious and should attract attention.
Analysis of agricultural meteorology by regions:
1) Northeast and Eastern Inner Mongolia: the temperature in this area was relatively high and the amount of rainfall was relatively low. In most areas, the soil moisture content dropped to 40-60% or below 40%, which had a negative effect on agriculture.
2) Xinjiang Agricultural Region and Qinghai-Tibet Plateau Ecological Zone: there was more rainfall in the northern part of Xinjiang, which is conducive to spring plowing. The precipitation in the rest of the region was relatively less. The planting areas need to adopt timely water-saving irrigation to promote agricultural production.
3) North China and the Northwest: The obvious precipitation in Central China and North China is conducive to the development of spring farming and ecological construction. There was much rainfall in the northwestern part of the North. Drought phenomenon in some areas without precipitation still existed, which had an adverse effect on agricultural production. At the same time, extreme temperature fluctuations in some regions had some negative impacts on human production and life.
4) Jianghuai, Jianghan and Huanghuai Plain: In most of the northern regions, there was some precipitation, and the temperature was basically normal, which was conducive to spring plowing and the development of winter wheat. More rainfall in central and southern China favored spring plowing. At present, wheat has entered the later stage of grain filling, strong rainfall between Jianghuai and Huaihe had a significant negative impact on the formation of wheat yield and quality.
5) South of the Yangtze River and South China: The expansion of drought-affected areas in the eastern part of south of the Yangtze River had a negative impact on the development of early rice, but it is beneficial to the maturation and harvest of winter crops. Less rainfall is relatively favorable for the production of single-season rice.
6) Southwest Agricultural Region: The spring crops have been harvested. The precipitation in most areas was normal, which is conducive to the development of rice, corn, potatoes and other economic crops.
