The weakening precipitation in the south in the coming week is good for the end of autumn harvest and the planting of autumn and winter.

Since November 4, 2015, there have been cloudy and rainy days in most of the south, with rainy days reaching 9: 14 days. The cumulative precipitation in the eastern and southern parts of the Yangtze River, the western and northern parts of South China is 1-4 times higher than that in the same period of the normal year. Hunan, southern Jiangxi, northern Guangxi and other places have torrential rain for 3 to 4 days, and the precipitation is more than 4 times. The obvious excessive precipitation has a certain impact on the harvest of late rice, corn and other autumn harvest crops and rape transplanting, among which the progress of autumn harvest and autumn planting in Guangxi is obviously slow. According to statistics from the agricultural department, as of November 12, late rice in Guangxi had harvested 63.1%, 11.1% slower than the same period last year, corn 17.6% slower than the same period last year, and the area of winter crops in the region was 3.9% slower than the same period last year.

At present, the harvest of late rice in the southeast of Jiangnan and the north of South China is coming to an end, the late rice in southern China is at the end of milk ripening to maturity, and Jiangnan rape is in the stage from the fifth needle to transplanting.

It is expected that in the coming week, the rainfall intensity in the south of the Yangtze River and South China will be weaker than that in the previous period, mainly overcast and light rain. All localities should seize the intermittent precipitation to harvest and dry late rice, corn and other crops, do a good job of cleaning the autumn harvest, ensure that the grains return to the warehouse, and prevent grain sprouting and mildew; at the same time, do a good job of transplanting rape and planting autumn and winter crops such as vegetables and potatoes.
