In recent days, 1.8 million acres of wheat in Tianjin have gradually entered the harvesting period. 40% of Tianjin's arable land is saline alkali land. Currently, two types of wheat have been promoted and planted in Tianjin. One is a high yield and lodging resistant high water fertilizer variety, and the other is drought alkali wheat, which is popular among farmers due to its drought and saline alkali resistance. In order to accelerate harvesting, relevant departments have mobilized various machinery and established more than 40 emergency operation service teams to help complete wheat harvesting work.
