Is wheat suitable for irrigation at this time in the south?

There is more rain in the south than in the north. I don't feel the need to flood! You know, at this moment, the ears of wheat are getting fuller and heavier. If the wheat plants are flooded, it is easy to cause the wheat plants to be unstable and lodging. If you encounter windy weather at this time, the risk is great and you have to guard against it!

Generally, Shanghai, Jiangsu, Anhui and other regions will harvest wheat from late May to early June, and then our northern regions such as Shandong will enter the summer harvest season after the solar term, probably after June! Therefore, since there are only 10 days left before the southern wheat matures, there is no point in watering at this moment!

In modern wheat planting, it is often only necessary to water it twice after the Spring Festival, that is, turning green water for wheat and filling water for wheat. If you encounter dry weather in the early stage, you can also water it again at jointing stage to save water! For example:

At the beginning of March, our family turned green water with wheat. Later, we encountered high temperature and dry weather, so we watered wheat in early April to save water. Because of the turning point of rainfall cooling after Tomb-Sweeping Day, we only watered a wheat field! Finally, in early May, the wheat grouting water was watered again, but the previously watered farmland was not watered again. After all, farmland moisture is good, and there is no shortage of water for the time being! If you encounter summer rain later, you should not need to replenish water before harvest!

Generally speaking, whether to water wheat should be judged comprehensively according to the water content of wheat field, weather change and the growth and development of wheat, and it is not allowed to water it at will! Especially from the late filling stage to the mature stage of wheat, with the fullness of wheat grains, the grain weight will gradually increase. If you encounter rainy weather, it is easy to fall down, and you should drain the water in the field in time! In addition, if flooding is carried out again at this time, it may be because there is too much soil moisture in the wheat field, which will affect the root activity of wheat when it matures, thus reducing the grain weight and affecting the final wheat yield! Therefore, even in high temperature and dry weather, watering should be stopped about 10 days before wheat ripens to avoid later yield reduction.

In this way, since you are talking about the southern region, your summer wheat harvest is only 10 days, and there is no need to irrigate the wheat field in large quantities! In order to avoid wheat lodging or grain weight reduction and reduce production!
