The summer grain is expected to have another bumper harvest this year to win the initiative to achieve a steady increase in grain income.

At present, 80% of summer grain has been harvested in southwest China, and the Huang-Huai-Hai winter wheat area has begun to harvest in a large area. According to the agricultural situation dispatching of the Ministry of Agriculture and the field investigation and analysis of experts, if there are no large-scale dry and hot wind, lodging and other disasters in the later stage, another bumper harvest of summer grain is expected this year.

The main characteristics of summer grain production this year are as follows: first, the area has increased steadily and slightly. The area of summer grain is expected to increase slightly, reaching 415 million mu, an increase of more than 1 million mu over the previous year. Second, the per unit yield is expected to increase. According to the field investigation and analysis of experts, there are "three factors" in wheat yield, the number of spikes per mu increases, the number of grains per spike increases slightly, the 1000-grain weight is expected to decrease slightly, and it is possible to increase per unit yield. Third, the trend of high yield in the main producing provinces is obvious. The main producing provinces reported that this year, wheat populations are sufficient and individuals are strong, especially dryland wheat is growing better than in previous years. In addition, large-scale rainfall occurred many times in the northern winter wheat region in April, which is conducive to the formation of large panicles and multiple grains.

On the basis of the substantial increase in summer grain production last year, it is not easy for summer grain to be able to protect the plate and stabilize output this year, and it is the result of many factors acting in the same direction. First, the impetus for action is strong. Agricultural departments at all levels in various localities firmly adhere to the goal of stabilizing grain income, unswervingly do a good job in wheat production, and make every effort to ensure the absolute safety of grain rations. The agricultural sector will make arrangements as soon as possible and pay close attention to implementation. At the same time, we should strengthen information guidance and guide farmers to arrange their planting structure and stabilize the area of summer grain. Second, the policy is implemented in place. This year, the state continues to implement the minimum purchase price for wheat, which will be announced as early as possible before planting in autumn and winter. The central government has allocated 1.5 billion yuan in subsidies for wheat "one spray and three prevention" to support the production of summer grain. Various localities have also actively raised funds to increase investment in summer grain production. Third, the role of science and technology is outstanding. We will continue to do a good job of technical guidance on important links, organize experts to formulate and issue seven technical guidance opinions and implement key technologies in different regions during key agricultural seasons and major weather changes. We will vigorously carry out the establishment of high grain production and the green model of increasing grain production, and promote a balanced increase in grain production in a large area. Fourth, disaster prevention and reduction is effective. According to local conditions, all localities popularize the key techniques of disaster prevention, such as deep pine soil preparation, post-sowing suppression, pouring overwintering water, and so on. In view of the high base of diseases and insect pests in the warm winter last year, the pass was moved forward to reduce the base of bacteria source. In particular, in view of the fact that there are too many Rain Water and a high risk of scab in the Jianghuai region in mid-late April, we should strengthen the monitoring of diseases and insect pests, timely carry out spray prevention operations, vigorously carry out unified prevention and control, and resolutely curb the spread of diseases and pests. We will conscientiously implement the policy of "one spray and three prevention" to effectively prevent dry and hot wind, premature senility, diseases and insect pests. In addition, the meteorological conditions are generally favorable. The main producing areas reflect that the meteorological conditions during the growth period of summer grain this year are relatively good in recent years, and the rain in the "8th, 10th, and 3rd" fields of wheat harvest is basically in place, which is conducive to the growth and development of wheat and the formation of wheat yield, especially the growth of dryland wheat is obviously better than that of previous years.

It is also understood that another bumper harvest of summer grain this year has been achieved under the new requirements of changing the mode and adjusting the structure. It is mainly reflected in the following aspects: first, the optimization of variety structure. According to the market demand, optimize the variety structure and expand the strong gluten wheat varieties with large demand increment. According to statistics, the area of strong gluten wheat has increased this year, an increase of 1 percentage point over the previous year. The second is to innovate the mode of increasing production. On the basis of summarizing the experience of creating high yield, we should organize and carry out the green mode of increasing production to tackle the key problems, overcome the technical difficulties with new ideas and ideas, tap the potential of increasing production, and promote the improvement of quality and efficiency. The third is to pay attention to ecological friendship. In the process of wheat production this year, attention should be paid to saving cost, increasing efficiency and sustainable development. All localities vigorously promote scientific fertilization and the unified control of diseases and insect pests to achieve the reduction and efficiency of chemical fertilizers and pesticides. In particular, it is deeply welcomed by farmers to carry out "one spray and three prevention" of wheat to prevent disasters and increase production without disasters.

At present, it has entered the busy season of "three summers". The Ministry of Agriculture calls on all localities to strengthen guidance and services, implement key technologies, make every effort to do a good job in the production of the "three summers", strive to achieve a bumper harvest of summer grain, and lay the foundation for a bumper harvest of autumn grain. The first is to strengthen the field management in the later stage of summer grain. Focus on the prevention of dry and hot wind and diseases and insect pests, organize and carry out the operation of "one spray and three prevention" to increase the filling rate, enhance the grouting intensity and increase the yield per unit area. The second is to carefully organize cross-district machine harvesting. Prepare the machines and materials for the "three summers" as soon as possible, guide all localities to strengthen the dispatching of machines and tools, organize cross-district machine collection, rush to collect and fight, and ensure that the particles return to the warehouse. The third is to pay close attention to summer planting and summer tube. We should prepare the materials and technology for summer sowing as early as possible, give full play to the role of agricultural machinery, harvest seeds at the same time, rush to harvest seeds, improve sowing quality and ensure that the whole seedling can be sowed at one time. Strengthen the field management of spring sowing crops to promote the normal growth and development of crops.
