Chinanews.com, Guangzhou, December 26 (Cheng Jingwei and Liu Zhen) According to data recently released by the Guangdong Investigation Team of the National Bureau of Statistics, Guangdong's grain output in 2022 will be 12.915 million tons, an increase of 117,000 tons or 0.9% over the previous year, which is the highest in Guangdong. Grain production is at its highest level in nearly a decade.

  In addition, in 2022, the sown area of ​​grain in Guangdong will be 33.455 million mu, an increase of 259,000 mu or 0.8% over the previous year; the unit yield of grain crops will be 386.1 kg/mu, an increase of 0.5 kg or 0.1% over the previous year.

Grain production, area, and per unit yield growth rate are all higher than the national average.

  From the perspective of grain growing area, in 2022, the grain area of ​​Guangdong will achieve growth in the three seasons.

Among them, the area of ​​spring grain (corresponding to the national summer grain) was 2.144 million mu, the area of ​​early rice was 12.963 million mu, and the area of ​​autumn grain was 18.348 million mu, an increase of 75,000 mu, 85,000 mu, and 99,000 mu, respectively, and an increase of 3.6% and 0.7% over the previous year. , 0.5%.

During the spring sowing period, in order to prevent the recurrence of the drought last year, farmers in Guangdong took the initiative to replant drought-resistant corn, soybeans or potatoes, and the area of ​​dry grain crops increased; With the implementation of the measures of making up for the early with the late, the area of ​​autumn grain crops and major varieties such as late rice, soybeans, and corn has increased.

  In recent years, under the high-level promotion of the Guangdong Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government, all parts of Guangdong have dug deep into the potential of cultivating land supply, and through measures such as high-standard farmland construction, abandoned land replanting and replanting, and reclamation of paddy fields, efforts have been made to expand the grain sown area and ensure that the fields Plant enough and fill up, and make every effort to complete the food security goals and tasks.

  According to expert analysis, in 2022, Guangdong's meteorological conditions are generally conducive to the growth and production of food crops, and the occurrence of diseases and insect pests will be relatively light. However, under the influence of continuous heavy rainfall and typhoons from May to July, some areas in northern and western Guangdong will be affected. , have a certain impact on early rice production.

In the second half of 2022, typhoons will land in parts of western Guangdong, and droughts will occur in parts of eastern and northern Guangdong. Local regions have ensured the growth of late rice by strengthening disaster warnings and field management.

  According to the Department of Agriculture and Rural Affairs of Guangdong Province, during the early rice growth period, all parts of Guangdong actively adopted disaster prevention and mitigation measures to effectively recover part of the losses; most of the time in the second half of the year was well matched with light, temperature and water, which was conducive to the growth of late rice. Deployment and development of projects such as "one spray and two prevention" and promotion of rice drying center facilities have effectively guaranteed the output of late rice.
