There is more demand for water from July to August in summer. If there is a shortage of water during this period, it will affect the growth of roots and shoots, thus affecting yield and quality. When the fruit is about to mature, the demand for water is also very high, long drought and sudden rain and drought will cause fruit cracking and fruit drop, so it is necessary to do a good job in the regulation and control of water.
