June 6 this year is the grain in ear solar term among the 24 solar terms. The 24 solar terms are closely related to farming. What crops are there in the grain in ear season? This article brings you the introduction of crops in grain in ear solar terms. Let's have a look.
Grain in ear, which literally means' wheat with awns can be harvested quickly and rice with awns can be planted ', is the busiest season for wheat and other summer crops to mature and cultivate. At this time, agricultural production in most parts of China is in the busy season of "three summers" of "summer harvest, summer planting and summer management".
Busy summer harvest is because the wheat is mature. In case of continuous rainy weather or even hail disaster, the wheat will not be harvested and threshed in time, resulting in lodging, grain falling, sprouting on the ear and rotten wheat field. We must seize all favorable opportunities to cut, transport and thresh.
Busy summer planting is because the growth period of summer crops such as summer soybean and summer corn is limited. In order to ensure harvest before autumn frost, sowing and planting must be carried out in advance in order to obtain higher yield.
Busy summer management is because there is more and more rain and higher temperature after the "ear seed" solar term. Spring crops such as cotton and spring corn have entered the peak of water, fertilizer and growth. They not only need Topdressing and water replenishment, but also need weeding, disease prevention and insect control. Otherwise, diseases and pests, drought, waterlogging, hail and other disasters occur simultaneously or alternately, and the yield of crops planted in spring will be reduced or lost.
Grain in ear solar terms, if the agricultural activities in the north and south of China can be summarized by a song, it is: 'grain in ear summer solstice wheat yellow, fight quickly, harvest quickly and put into storage quickly. We should pay close attention to planting summer crops and keep up with field management. It's rainy season in Jiangnan. Rainstorm and hail should be prevented. "
At this time, the farmland is often a busy scene. On the one hand, this time is most suitable for sowing awned cereal crops; On the other hand, grain in ear is also the dividing point of crop planting time. After this solar term, the survival rate of crops will be lower and lower.
In most parts of the north, winter wheat producing areas are in a tight harvest season at this time, while late grain, millet, quilt and other crops are busy sowing time. Because the growth period of summer crops such as summer soybean and summer maize is limited, in order to ensure the harvest before the autumn frost, we must sow or plant in advance to obtain the highest yield. Therefore, we should pay close attention to planting after the wheat harvest.
As the saying goes, time is the yield. Even in case of drought in ear planting season, we should actively resist early sowing and not wait for rain and miss the opportunity. Crops planted in spring, such as cotton and spring corn, have entered the peak of water, fertilizer and growth. They not only need Topdressing and water, but also need weeding, disease prevention and insect control. Cotton in North China has entered the five leaf stage, and some flowers can be seen. Early rice in South China and Guangdong began to mature.
In the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, the rain increases and the temperature increases during the grain in ear season. Entering the rainy plum rain season, the weather is extremely humid and muggy, and all kinds of utensils and clothes are prone to mildew, which is also known as "moldy rainy day". At this time, the wheat harvest field should prevent the occurrence of 'rotten wheat field'. Abundant rain is very beneficial to the growth of rice and summer crops, but continuous cloudy and rainy weather can cause floods in the Jianghuai River Basin. At this time, typhoons also began to attack coastal areas.
