Last Updated: 2024/11/24, First, soil preparation and fertilization: on the basis of ploughing and freezing in winter, base fertilizer is applied in spring, with 3 cubic meters of commonly effective organic manure and 30 kg of available ternary compound fertilizer per mu, and then ploughed, raked and leveled. After rain, it is necessary to rake again to absorb and preserve soil moisture, and enough moisture to be planted. Second, seed preparation: (1) Variety selection. Disease-resistant and insect-resistant hybrid cotton varieties are selected, such as Yuza 35, Zhongmian 47, Zhongmian 48 and so on. (2) seed selection. Select the seeds with high purity, full grains, maturity and high germination rate. (3) seed drying.

First, soil preparation and fertilization: on the basis of ploughing and freezing in winter, base fertilizer is applied in spring, with 3 cubic meters of commonly effective organic manure and 30 kg of available ternary compound fertilizer per mu, and then ploughed, raked and leveled.

Second, seed preparation: (1) Variety selection. Disease-resistant and insect-resistant hybrid cotton varieties are selected, such as Yuza 35, Zhongmian 47, Zhongmian 48 and so on. (2) seed selection. Select the seeds with high purity, full grains, maturity and high germination rate. (3) seed drying. Choose sunny and warm weather 7 days before sowing and dry for 2-3 days to improve germination and growth. (4) seed dressing with chemicals. Before sowing, the seeds were mixed with insecticides and fungicides to effectively control underground pests and seedling diseases.

Third, the determination of sowing time: according to the climatic characteristics of frost-free period from north to south in our province, the sowing time is scheduled for April 20-25 in northern Henan, 15-20 April in central Henan and 10-15 April in southern Henan.

Fourth, replenish and sow moisture before sowing: for wheat and cotton fields, as the direct sowing date of cotton is in the vigorous growth period, the consumption of soil moisture is serious, and the cotton planting line is easy to lack soil moisture. If there is no rainfall during this period, sprinkler irrigation should be used to replenish soil moisture 3 days before sowing. If sowing first and then watering to replenish soil moisture, it is easy to cause low temperature and high humidity and aggravate the disease at seedling stage, resulting in lack of seedlings and broken ridges, which directly affects the yield.
