New wheat in eastern Henan and western Shandong is poised for a bumper harvest, and a good wheat harvest is in sight
New wheat in eastern Henan and western Shandong is poised for a bumper harvest. According to the southern route wheat survey by the China Grain Network, the wheat sown area in Shangqiu, Henan, has maintained a slight upward trend in recent years, and wheat varieties are mainly high-yield wheats such as Aikang 58, Zhongmai 18, and Zhongmai 22. In terms of high-quality wheat planting, the main varieties include Zhoumai 24, Xinmai 26, and Zhengmai 7698, with an incompletely counted sown area of less than 1 million mu, and planting is relatively scattered. Judging from the current growth situation, pests and diseases are occurring rather severely, leading to mild white head symptoms, but the overall wheat growth is the best in historical years, and it can be expected that if the weather is normal later, there will still be a bumper harvest year. Wheat growth in Heze, Shandong, is relatively good, but unlike the areas surveyed earlier, local enterprises do not believe that the local wheat support price plan will be activated, because Shandong had rarely activated the plan before, and because Shandong wheat quality is relatively good, with many buyers from surrounding areas coming in past years, and at one point the saying "(wheat) rises, look to Shandong" was circulated. From our on-the-ground understanding, the mainstream local wheat price is about 1.25 yuan/jin, roughly the same as wheat prices in surrounding areas.
