A bumper summer grain harvest has consolidated the economic foundation of the whole year (China's economy is fast and steady ②)
2022-08-05
It's near the beginning of autumn, and farming is busy. In Jiefang village, Hongshui Town, Qianxi City, Guizhou Province, Dai Yuanfu was busy pumping water to irrigate his own rice field. "If you drink enough water, the rice will not grow badly, and the per mu production capacity will reach about 1200 Jin. In addition to the increase in the last crop of summer grain, our 'ton grain field' is ready." This year, the output of summer grain reached a record high and won the "19th consecutive harvest". According to the data of the National Bureau of statistics, the total output of summer grain in 2022 was 294.8 billion jin, an increase of 2.87 billion jin over the previous year. Among them, the output of wheat was 271.5 billion jin, an increase of 2.57 billion jin. Grain is abundant and the world is safe. Looking forward to the second half of the year, the summer grain has been returned to the warehouse, the autumn grain production has been pushed forward, the foundation for the bumper harvest of the whole year is solid, and the "Chinese rice bowl" is stable. "This crop of wheat is not easy to harvest" "this crop of wheat is not easy to harvest!" In Deping Town, Linyi County, Dezhou City, Shandong Province, when the last wheat field was harvested, Wei Dedong, a grain grower, excitedly picked up a handful of golden wheat. "The grain is full and compact, and the average yield per mu is about 1200 Jin. When it was sown late last November, I didn't expect to have such a good harvest." As Wei Dedong said, it is not easy to increase the output of summer grain and wheat this year. Internationally, since the beginning of the year, affected by geopolitics and epidemics, global food insecurity has intensified, wheat production in many countries has been reduced, and some countries have restricted the export of wheat and other agricultural products. The United Nations, the world bank and the OECD have warned against the risk of food crisis. At home, affected by last year's severe autumn flood, about 110 million mu of winter wheat was sown late, accounting for about 1 / 3 of the total area. The long delay in sowing and the large proportion of late sowing area are rare in many years; Under the background of global energy and fertilizer shortage, the price of domestic agricultural materials is running at a high level; The epidemic has spread in many places, and the movement of people, the transportation and marketing of agricultural materials and the circulation of agricultural products in some areas have been blocked. The production of summer grain and wheat is facing many challenges. It is not easy to know, which shows that this year's summer grain harvest is full of quality and weight. The area increased instead of decreasing, laying a foundation for increasing production - the area of summer grain reached 398 million mu, an increase of 1.38 million mu over the previous year. Although the area of winter wheat decreased by 1.01 million mu due to the rare autumn flood last year, the northwest and other places expanded the planting of spring wheat with summer harvest of 1.77 million mu, an increase of 23%, and realized the goal of "supplementing winter with spring". In the southern region, 620000 mu of miscellaneous grains and beans such as broad beans and potatoes were planted to achieve the goal of "supplementing wheat with miscellaneous grains". The unit yield continued to increase, exceeding the market expectation - the summer grain yield per mu was 370.4 kg, an increase of 2.3 kg over the previous year, an increase of 0.6%; Among them, the yield of wheat per mu was 394.2 kg, an increase of 2.9 kg, an increase of 0.7%. This is a new high on the basis of the increase of the summer grain yield for three consecutive years. The quality was better than that of the previous year, and the number of high-quality wheat increased - the proportion of second-class and above wheat in the main production areas exceeded 90%. The wheat quality was good, the imperfection rate and the mildew rate were low, and the quality was the best in recent years. The proportion of high-quality special wheat reached 38.5%, an increase of 1.2 percentage points over the previous year
