Does the continuous absence of rain before sowing wheat wait for rain or sow wheat?

Summary: There is no rain continuously before wheat sowing. Should we wait for rain or sow wheat?

This problem has been a real headache lately. My hometown here is also more than half a month did not rain, but fortunately our soil moisture is OK, a few days ago the family has put wheat sowing up. We usually plant them together. When we see that other people's families have planted them, it's quite urgent to wait any longer. Generally, when we see one family planting them, everyone will follow suit.

Before a friend also asked a similar question, in fact, or that sentence "would rather be appropriate late sowing, but also to ensure soil moisture", soil moisture is appropriate to quickly sow, and then wait for no one to know whether it will rain. However, the old man at home said,"Autumn equinox early, frost late, cold dew wheat is at the right time", now cold dew has passed more than ten days, if there is no sowing, I think it is better to plan earlier, after all, appropriate late sowing can not be too late. Otherwise, the sowing time of wheat is too late, which is not conducive to the smooth winter of wheat in the later stage, and it will also affect the harvest of wheat in the later stage.

In addition, if the local drought is not very serious and the soil is in a semi-dry and semi-wet state, it is best not to adopt the method of sowing, so that the wheat seeds do not contact the soil moisture and it is difficult to emerge. Of course, I am afraid that wheat will sprout, but there is still no rain, and the malt will be dried to death, which will waste wheat seeds instead. So it is really difficult to decide, my view is that if the moisture content is appropriate to sow it, to tell the truth, farmers see the sky is really not easy to plant.

How to judge whether soil moisture is suitable for sowing wheat?

Soil moisture is an important indicator to judge whether it is suitable for sowing wheat, so how to judge whether soil moisture is suitable for sowing? In fact, the most suitable soil moisture for sowing wheat is the most appropriate when it is full of moisture, and the situation of wheat emergence under sowing at this time is the best. Under normal circumstances, sufficient moisture refers to the soil moisture for the field water holding capacity of about 80%, this is also the so-called sufficient moisture. Of course, not all times the soil can have such a good moisture content, or need to make different response measures according to different soil conditions.

For the case of insufficient soil moisture, we generally adopt two ways: one is to build moisture before sowing, and the other is to replenish water in time after sowing, which is the so-called soil moisture removal water, irrigation stubble water and covering water. Under normal circumstances, if the plot is irrigated with water, pay attention to check the soil condition in time after watering to avoid soil hardening, which is also not conducive to wheat emergence.
