Rushing Harvest During the Grain in Ear Season, Henan Wheat Harvests Over 80%

The wheat production in Henan Province accounts for a quarter of the national total, and the current wheat harvest progress has exceeded 80%. In the past two days, large-scale wheat harvesting has begun in the northern Henan region.

CCTV reporter Wang Tao: In the high standard farmland of Baima Slope in Huaxian County, Anyang City, harvesters are working in the field. Large scale harvesting of wheat has begun in the northern Henan region. According to this morning's wheat harvest progress report, 80% of the wheat harvest in Henan has passed, and it is expected that the wheat harvest work in the province will be completed within two days.

Since May 25th this year, Henan Province has experienced widespread and continuous rainfall, overlapping with the mature harvest period of wheat. Harvested wheat in the field has suffered severe "rotten rain", and wheat sprouting and sprouting have occurred in the southern region of Henan, causing losses. In contrast, wheat in the northern region of Henan has matured much later, resulting in much better conditions. Henan Province requires all regions to closely monitor key links such as "cutting, sun drying, preservation, and harvesting", take extraordinary measures to harvest wheat, seize the favorable weather of these two days, and strive to achieve "grain grabbing at Longkou".

Shanxi: Impurity removal in the field to ensure seed quality of high-quality wheat varieties

In recent days, wheat from various regions in southern Shanxi has gradually entered the harvest season. There are some special wheat fields dedicated to cultivating high-quality wheat varieties for autumn and winter sowing. Unlike regular wheat, seed wheat requires manual impurity removal before harvesting to ensure the purity of the seed variety.

CCTV reporter Han Chaohao: At the thousand acre wheat seed base in Quwo County, Linfen City, before harvesting, the staff need to remove impurities from the wheat to ensure the purity of the wheat seeds. What are the standards for staff impurity removal? The height and appearance of the wheat used for seed production are almost identical. During the impurity removal process, excessively tall wheat will be eliminated to ensure consistent height. In addition to height, it also depends on the appearance of the wheat ears. Those that do not meet the seed production requirements will be eliminated. According to the forecast of the agricultural department, Linfen City is expected to produce over 40 million kilograms of wheat seeds this year, which can meet the seed demand of 3 million mu of wheat for autumn and winter in the city.

Relevant departments urgently opened public places such as enterprises, institutions, and village committee cultural squares, and fully utilized idle warehouses to provide drying services for the public. At the same time, an information ledger for drying sites and drying facilities was established.

Liu Xiao, Deputy Director of the Production Department of the Agricultural Machinery Management Center in Xianyang City, Shaanxi Province: As of now, a total of 2839 drying sites have been identified in Xianyang City, with a total area of 13.22 million square meters.
