CCTV News: During the beginning of spring, the main production areas of Huanghuaihai ushered in a critical period for winter wheat spring management. In order to effectively deal with the impact of recent cooling weather on winter wheat, we will implement classified measures in the main production areas and ensure the management of winter wheat fields.
At present, Hebei is organizing agricultural technology experts to provide technical guidance on early spring field management for more than 33 million mu of winter wheat in the province. Guantao County has been lacking effective precipitation since the beginning of winter, and the soil is droughtier than usual. The sudden drop in temperature in the past two days, with cold and drought intersecting, which is easy to cause wheat frost damage. To this end, agricultural technology experts guide growers to increase soil moisture content through scientific watering and prevent a sharp drop in ground temperature.
More than 60 million mu of winter wheat in Shandong Province are in the overwintering period. In Ningjin County, a large seed production county, in order to reduce the impact of cold wave weather, farmers have taken measures such as spraying foliar fertilizer for some wheat that has green overwintering and is about to return to green to repair frostbite in wheat seedlings.
In Luohe, Henan, the local area took advantage of the snow to carry out precise top dressing operations. The wheat seedlings in the 300 acres of fields of grower Zhao Yiya are different. For this reason, on the basis of using four plant protection drones, he added multi-spectral surveying and mapping drones for accurate identification and precision operations. As snow melts and fertilizers, it will effectively promote wheat growth.
In 2025, the winter wheat planting area in my country remained stable on the basis of years of continuous increase, and the current seedling growth is generally normal. After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, winter wheat will begin to turn green. The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs organized agricultural technicians to take charge of the province to guide local governments to implement classified policies, promote the implementation of various measures to increase large-scale yields in the fields, and lay a solid foundation for a bumper harvest.
