Second, what are the points for attention in raising oat seedlings?

1. Temperature

Oats prefer cool but not cold-tolerant, and the north of temperate zone is the most suitable for planting. Seeds can germinate at 2-4 ℃, and seedlings can withstand the low temperature of-2-4 ℃, which is the most cold-tolerant among wheat crops. In northern and northwestern China, the winter is cold and can only be sown in spring, while in the south, it can be sown in autumn, but it must mature before the high temperature in summer.

two。 Moisture content

Oats grow in alpine desert areas, but when seeds germinate, they need about 65% water of their own weight. The transpiration coefficient is higher than barley and wheat, and they consume more water. During the growth period, if there is not enough water, the grain is often not full and the yield is reduced. Therefore, the rhizome of oats is often about one meter long in order to absorb more water.

3. Soil

Under excellent cultivation conditions, oats can get a good harvest on all kinds of texture soil, but the humus-rich wet soil is the best, and its adaptability to acid soil is stronger than other wheat crops, but it is not suitable for saline-alkali soil cultivation.

4. Environment

Choose sunny and windless weather before sowing oats. Spread the seeds 2-3 cm thick and dry them for 3-5 days. Drying seeds can promote early germination, improve germination rate, early emergence of seedlings, and ultraviolet light in the sun can kill germs on the seed epidermis and reduce diseases. Seed dressing with 0.2% seed or carbendazim to prevent oat head smut, rust, etc., and phoxim or carbofuran can also be used in areas with serious underground pests.
