CCTV News: Farming time does not wait for people, spring farming is the right time. Farmers in Yunmeng County, Xiaogan City, Hubei Province are calculating the solar term to rush the farming season, and promote the planting of regenerated rice that "plant one crop and harvest two seasons" to allow double harvest in the same field.

Early in the morning, in this rice field in Wupu Town, Yunmeng County, Xiaogan City, the transplanter began to work. As the robotic arm swinged, the tender green seedlings were neatly inserted into the paddy fields, and in a blink of an eye, a large area of ​​new green was displayed. This year, under the guidance of agricultural technology experts, the cooperative improved the seedling cultivation formula, which has improved the overall quality of seedlings much more than in previous years.

At the same time, in view of the characteristics of this year's spring drought, experts also guide everyone step by step how to manage the field.

According to reports, the local recycled rice yield per mu can reach 2,700 kilograms of wet valley, which can increase the average income per mu by about 700 kilograms compared to other rice seeds. This year, Yunmeng County plans to sow rice in about 590,000 mu, of which more than 30,000 mu of recycled rice are planted.

Nanchang, Jiangxi: Starting the work of water extraction, adjustment and lifting to ensure spring plowing and spring irrigation

Recently, the sowing and planting of early rice in southern China has been fully launched, and spring plowing production has also entered the peak period of concentrated water use. In order to ensure the water demand for agricultural irrigation, Nanchang City, Jiangxi Province actively carried out the maintenance of water diversion and irrigation facilities in outer rivers to ensure the water demand for irrigation.

In Changyi Township, Xinjian District, Nanchang City, farmers are busy planting rice seedlings. Due to the high demand for water, the local area has allocated 4 high-power pumps and 30 low-power pumps to transport the water source of the outer river at low places to the inland rivers and inland ports at high places to facilitate spring farming.

In addition to doing a good job in water source allocation, the local government organizes staff from agriculture, power supply, water conservancy and other departments to go to the fields to carry out maintenance of pumping stations, wells and other facilities, and performs dredging operations on rivers and agricultural canals.

At present, the early rice planting and planting in Nanchang City has completed 1.48 million mu of early rice, with a progress of more than 70%. In terms of maintenance and irrigation projects, 36 pump stations have been repaired, 81 water source projects have been repaired, and 62 kilometers of main channel maintenance and dredging have been completed.

Ningxia: Seed-making corn was the first to start large-scale planting

Sometimes, Ningxia has entered the season of corn planting, and seed-making corn was the first to start large-scale planting as corn seeds.

In a farmland in Yongfeng Village, Qingtongxia Daba Town, Ningxia, an unmanned tractor is operating. This tractor is equipped with a Beidou navigation system and can complete the three tasks of sowing, fertilization and coating at one time according to the pre-set lines. The seeds sown now are the fathers needed for seed corn, which is called the fathers of hybrid corn. When it blooms, the pollen naturally drifts away with the wind, crosses with the mothers, and finally grows into seed corn.

The maternal mater starts sowing in early April every year, and the maternal mater usually starts from mid-to-late April to early May. This year, Qingtongxia City plans to plant more than 60,000 mu of seeds, and is expected to produce 27 million kilograms of corn seeds, mainly for the southwest region.

Scientific field management in Xinjiang helps increase the income of 1.48 million mu of winter wheat

At present, in Changji, Xinjiang, it is a critical period for winter wheat jointing. The local government uses scientific and technological means to strengthen field management such as winter wheat water and fertilizer.

In a high-standard farmland in Manas County, Changji Prefecture, several plant protection drones are spraying foliar fertilizers according to the route set by Beidou satellite. Compared with traditional locomotive spraying, drones will not crush the seedlings. It used to take 1 day to spray 300 acres of wheat fields to complete, but now it only takes 2 hours.

In Qitai County, Changji Prefecture, agricultural technicians guided large grain growers to continue to adopt reduced-row planting technology based on last year's experiments, adjusting the traditional 4.2-meter sowing 7 rows to 6 rows, and expanding the line spacing to 33 cm to make the seed distribution more evenly.

The reporter learned from the Changji Prefecture Agriculture and Rural Affairs Bureau that 1.48 million mu of winter wheat are growing well this year, and the first round of drone water and fertilizer field management is expected to end on April 12.
