Recently, the weather in most areas of Ningxia has gradually warmed up. The agriculture and animal husbandry departments of Ningxia have actively organized spring plowing and preparation work, and farmers in various places have also purchased agricultural machinery, seeds, fertilizers and other agricultural materials in advance to make full preparations for spring plowing. It is understood that at present, seed operating enterprises across Ningxia have collected and stored more than 48 million kg of seeds of the three major crops of wheat, rice and corn, and allocated 257,000 tons of fertilizer.
