Northeast japonica rice market remains stable, with the "strong paddy, weak rice" trend prominent
Recently, the Northeast japonica rice market has been operating steadily, with the "strong paddy, weak rice" feature prominent. Unlike the sharp rise in long-grain paddy, against the backdrop of strict moisture and impurity deductions at state reserve warehouses, round-grain paddy has performed relatively steadily, with only low-moisture paddy seeing an increase of about 2-3 fen compared with last month

Strong calls for expanding agricultural insurance, farmers hope for more comprehensive protection
Patches of sugarcane lay fallen on the ground, their leaves torn. At 4 pm on August 29, an unexpected gale mixed with thunderstorms and hail battered Ye Xuelin's sugarcane in Yunxi Village, Yunxi Township, Qujiang District, knocking it down askew. That wind blew wildly for a full hour, with thunder and

Machine-transplanted early rice yields a bumper harvest, with strong momentum for mechanization promotion
Despite being affected by prolonged continuous low temperatures, overcast and rainy weather, and insufficient sunlight, the machine-transplanted early rice at Datonghu Farm of Hunan State Farms still achieved a bumper harvest. Expert inspection data show that the average yield of machine-transplanted early rice in the area was 532.8 kg per mu. At the same time, more than 110,000 mu of machine-transplanted early rice in the area

Good varieties are the key for seed companies to grow bigger and stronger
The corn seed industry has advanced by leaps and bounds in recent decades, reflected in the continuous expansion of corn planting area. From less than 200 million mu in the early days after Liberation, it hovered at the 200 million mu level for 30 years, broke through 300 million mu in the 1990s, and remained at this

How can the rapeseed industry be made stronger? Five provinces join hands to promote development
Hubei Daily dispatch (reporter Wu Wenjuan, correspondent Zhong Ping) On the 12th, at the Yangtze River middle and lower reaches rapeseed yield increase model research technical exchange meeting held in Wuhan, heads of agricultural departments from five provinces - Hunan, Sichuan, Jiangxi, Jiangsu and Hubei - as well as rapeseed experts, discussed tackling ⟦4 <p> Hubei Daily dispatch (reporter Wu Wenjuan, correspondent Zhong Ping) On the 12th, at the “Yangtze River middle and lower reaches rapeseed yield increase model research technical exchange meeting” held in Wuhan, heads of agricultural departments from five provinces - Hunan, Sichuan, Jiangxi, Jiangsu and Hubei - as well as rapeseed experts, held discussions on overcoming technical challenges in rapeseed breeding, transplanting and segmented harvesting.</p> <p> Experts explained that in recent years, despite repeated calls, the rapeseed planting area has been difficult to expand, mainly because the level of rapeseed mechanization is low, especially the lack of new early-maturing and very early-maturing varieties. In 2012, the national level of mechanized rapeseed planting and mechanized harvesting stood at 12.3% and 13.3% respectively, far lower than other crops.</p> <p> To keep the “oil bottle” stable, in April last year, the Ministry of Agriculture launched the Yangtze River middle and lower reaches rapeseed yield increase model research project, led by the Hubei Provincial Department of Agriculture, with the participation of the departments of agriculture of the four provinces of Hunan, Sichuan, Jiangxi and Jiangsu, to overcome the bottlenecks of early-maturing, high-yield, high-oil, high-resistance varieties and mechanization technology in rapeseed production.</p> <p> Over more than a year, new breakthroughs have been made in research on early-maturing varieties. Hubei has bred several promising early-maturing varieties and combinations such as “Shengguang 127” and “Huazao 291”, which can be harvested from late April to early May in the southeast and central regions. They are suitable varieties for the “rapeseed-rice-rice” combination, can ease the tight conflict in crop rotation, and can expand the rapeseed planting area in triple-cropping regions; in Hunan, a batch of early-maturing varieties (combinations) maturing around April 25 have been bred, and a batch of extremely early-maturing rapeseed lines sown in the Changsha area at the end of October and maturing around April 20. At the same time, the project areas have balanced grain and oil and pursued coordinated development, exploring triple-cropping planting models for grain and oil such as “rapeseed-rice-rice” and “rapeseed-rice-ratoon rice”.</p> <p> The meeting revealed that through large-scale promotion of mature technical models, by 2020, the rapeseed area in the Yangtze River middle and lower reaches project areas will achieve stable development, reaching more than 73 million mu, an increase of about 7 million mu; total output will approach 10 million tons, an increase of 1.3 million tons; the full-process mechanization rate of rapeseed will increase by 15 percentage points; and grain yield per unit area will increase by an average of 1.5 percentage points per year.</p>
