Corn is the main crop of autumn grain in Henan, and in a few days, the province's 57 million acres of corn will begin to be harvested on a large scaleRead on.
CCTV reporter Wang Tao: I am now in a high-standard farmland in Gaocun Township, Xingyang, Henan Province, this corn field, is now in the final filling period, our expert group, today here for a yield measurement, then you look at the corn on the table, is just some samples of the yield, you see that this corn cob has now grown, the particles are also very full, the color is golden yellow, very beautiful.
Then this corn is in the last filling period, the characteristics of the filling period, in fact, can be seen, let's break a corn cob, from its side to see, you see this grouting paint corn if the grout is full, its color will become darker, the grout is not full of lighter color, so between the two, there is an obvious line, also called the corn milk line, the grout is from the top to the base, so this corn milk line will also slowly move from the top to the bottom, until the end disappears, which also means that the entire corn grout is completely completed, and it also means that the corn can be matured and harvested。
Now the experts are measuring the production, let's wait a while, and ask how the results of this production measurement areIn order to complete the annual grain output of Henan Province this year of 130 billion catties of such a goal, so the production of autumn grain is very critical, Henan Province has also taken a lot of measures, such as to carry out corn yield improvement project, then this yield increase, first of all, is to increase the density of corn planting, everyone look at the corn field behind me, this previous year, the spacing between corn is about 25 cm, let's measure it now, now it is about 21 cm, that is to say, the corn spacing is reduced compared with previous years, which means that the number of corn plants in his overall is increased compared with previous years, the density has increased.
Of course, it does not mean that the yield of corn can be increased if it is dense, first of all, it is necessary to choose this dense variety for planting, and in the later management, water and fertilizer must keep up, such as in the bell period, it is necessary to carry out a general comprehensive top dressing, so as to maintain the final yield of corn can be stable. Through the increase of yield per mu, the overall grain output of Henan Province this autumn will be increased. We understand that the yield measurement of this corn has basically been completed, let's ask the expert, Professor Liu, whether the results of this yield measurement have come out just now?
Liu Tianxue, member of the maize expert steering group of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs: Just now, through the expert group, this piece of land was sampled at multiple points, and the average yield per mu reached 803 kilograms.
CCTV reporter Wang Tao: So you have been to many places this year, how is the overall growth of corn in our Henan Province?
Liu Tianxue, member of the corn expert steering group of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs: At present, the corn in the province is growing well, and it should be a relatively good year in recent years.
