According to the National Meteorological Center, the Yangtze River since 2011 middle and lower reaches of a river Regional precipitation continues to be relatively low, resulting in the following cotton It is difficult to transplant. In the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River in from May 21st to 23rd, there was a large range of precipitation processes. The rainfall was generally 10~25 millimeters, including 30~50 in the eastern and southwestern part of Hubei, the north and west of Hunan, the north central part of Jiangxi, the south of Anhui, and the north central part of Zhejiang, with 60~90 millimeters in the southeastern part of Hubei and some parts of Northwest Jiangxi.

The distribution of rainfall time is more uniform, which is conducive to the full infiltration of water. The soil moisture content of most farmland has been significantly improved. The drought in Southern Jianghan and southern Jiangnan has obviously eased, and the area of dry land is short of moisture, which is conducive to the growth of cotton and so on. The results of the statistical drought investigation in Hubei Province in May 22nd and 20 showed that the area of the drought affected farmland was reduced by about 5 million mu, and the drought area in the field was reduced by 3 million mu (the area of heavy drought decreased by 1 million 260 thousand mu), the area of water shortage in the paddy field was reduced by 1 million 210 thousand mu, and the area of dry land was reduced by 800 thousand mu.

It is estimated that in from May 24th to 31st, the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River will be mainly sunny and hot, with less rainfall. The rainfall along the river will be less than 10 millimeters. The daily maximum temperature will be between 32 and 36 degrees. Water deficient areas will affect the growth of upland crops such as cotton. Cotton and other dry land are suggested. crop We should grasp the favorable soil moisture after precipitation, timely transplant and timely fertilization to promote normal growth.
