As cotton seedlings continue to grow in the mainland, cotton seedlings raised in nutrient pots gradually enter the pot seedling transplanting period. It is understood that there have been more sunny and good weather in various parts of Anhui Province recently, which is conducive to the growth of cotton, and cotton farmers are working hard to transplant cotton seedlings.
Dongzhi
Recently, Dongzhi, Anhui Province has continued to have fine weather, with a maximum temperature of 29 degrees Celsius. It is conducive to the maturity of rapeseed, and cotton farmers take the opportunity to harvest rapeseed in preparation for transplanting cotton seedlings.
It is understood that the weather this year is better than the same period last year, and the rainfall is not heavy. Therefore, the growth of rapeseed this year is better than last year. It is expected that the rapeseed threshing work will be carried out in three days, and the transplantation of cotton seedlings will also be fully carried out. At present, the cotton seedlings are growing well. The plant height of the cotton seedlings is 23 cm, and generally there are 4-5 leaves.
In addition, Zheng cotton has been unstable recently, but it has little impact on the local lint spot, and the quotation is basically stable. As of now, the local lint price is quoted at 21,550-22,250 yuan/ton, and companies no longer have much cotton in hand.
Anqing
The weather in Anqing Cotton District, Anhui Province was fine last week (May 16-22), with temperatures ranging from 18 to 28 degrees Celsius. The harvest of rapeseed in major cotton-producing areas such as Wangjiang and Susong has basically ended, and the transplanting of cotton seedlings in cotton nutrient pots in rapeseed fields is in full swing.
After the Qingming Festival, the local area has more favorable weather, the temperature has risen quickly, and the rainfall is moderate. The cotton seedlings in the cotton nutrient bowl generally grow well. At present, the cotton seedlings are about 15-18 cm tall, with 4-6 true leaves, and the insect damage is relatively light. Local cotton farmers said that starting from May 18, the transplantation of cotton seedlings in local rapeseed fields has entered its peak period, which takes about seven days. The transplantation of cotton seedlings in wheat fields is later than that in rapeseed fields.
Wuwei
Currently, the weather in Wuwei is mainly sunny, with the highest temperature reaching 31 degrees, which is suitable for the normal growth of cotton seedlings. As of May 22, the local cotton seedling transplanting work has basically been completed. Due to different transplanting plots, the overall growth time of cotton seedlings is about 20 days.
For the cotton seedlings transplanted in the open space, the current seedling height is about 35 cm, with 5-7 large leaves and 2-3 branches in the upper part. The development is good, accounting for 40%. %; the cotton seedlings transplanted in the rapeseed field, the transplanting time is 15-20 days, the cotton seedlings grow generally, the seedling height is about 20-25 cm, there are 3-4 large leaves, the growth is weak; the cotton seedlings interplanted with corn The seedlings have a plant height of about 20 cm, 2-3 large leaves, and weak growth.
Overall, the seedlings were not harmed by diseases and insect pests and grew normally, slightly better than last year. The main work at the moment is to manage the seedling stage. First, prevent the occurrence of pests and diseases and spray pesticides in time; second, apply fertilizer appropriately and lightly to prevent the emergence of tall cotton seedlings; third, the rainy season is coming, and good ditch drainage is done to prevent heavy rains from causing waterlogging. ; Fourth, although cotton is a drought-tolerant crop, it must be prepared for drought; fifth, pruning and cross-branching, removing male branches and leaving female branches is the basis for increasing cotton production. Combining the above points, we can ensure that the cotton seedlings grow well and strong, laying a solid foundation for this year’s harvest.
