When will Xinjiang wheat mature?

Xinjiang has a wide area, and the ripening time of wheat is different. For example, the wheat in Aksu region matures in June, the north and south regions of Tianshan mature from July to August, and the ones in the mountains will be later. Let's learn about the key points of cultivation techniques of wheat in Xinjiang.

I. A brief introduction to wheat in Xinjiang

Xinjiang wheat, also known as Peter Pavlov wheat, originated in Xinjiang, China, commonly known as rice spike wheat, rice and wheat. Its grains are large, long oval, white, hard, deep grooves, many crown hairs, and the 1000-grain weight is 40-50g in the country of origin.

2. Key points of wheat cultivation techniques in Xinjiang.

1. Pre-broadcast preparation

According to the local climatic conditions, select the varieties suitable for local planting. Optimize the fertilization structure, achieve the combination of organic and inorganic, adhere to the "combination of nitrogen and phosphorus, supplementary application of potassium fertilizer; application of sufficient base fertilizer, reasonable ratio of base dressing". In the plots where weeds or diseases are serious, under the guidance of the local plant protection department, appropriate chemicals are selected for soil treatment.

two。 Seed treatment

In order to prevent rust, smut and powdery mildew, coated seeds can be selected. Or choose powder rust Ning, carbendazim and so on to mix seeds or stuffy seeds.

3. Sowing seeds

Watering before the harvest of the previous crop or opening ditches and watering after the harvest of the previous crop to produce soil moisture, strive to irrigate enough soil moisture before sowing and reduce the area of head water after sowing. Large beds can be used for those with good irrigation conditions, and small beds can be used for those with poor irrigation conditions to save water. The sowing of winter wheat in northern Xinjiang will end before October 10, and the end in Yili can be postponed to October 15. Southern Xinjiang should end before October 15.

Mechanical strip sowing is used. Sowing wheat fields in northern and southern Xinjiang: equal row spacing sowing, row spacing 15cm; wide row sowing, wide row 20cm, narrow row 10cm. In southern Xinjiang, the wheat fields were seeded with equal row spacing and 11~12cm. In the areas with large land slope in northern Xinjiang, the planting and sowing methods of four ditches and six rows or six ditches and four rows are adopted.

4. Field management

The ditch should be dug within 3 days after sowing. In order to narrow the gap of seedling age in the field, the seeds soaked in water for one day and night should be used to check the seedling replanting in time. Generally speaking, it is appropriate for the surface to rake the land after the beginning of spring; in the dry and thin land with insufficient soil moisture, it is not recommended to rake or loosen the soil in early spring, but the pressure is applied to compact the ground to reduce wind erosion and run away soil moisture. For wheat fields with large population, deep ploughing and root cutting should be used to control ineffective tillering and population development in spring.
