5 districts in Hai Duong complete winter-spring crop planting

Localities are expanding the area of ​​rice planting using machines to reduce labor for farmers and increase economic efficiency.

By July 16, farmers in the province had planted more than 51,100 hectares of winter-spring rice, completing the early and mid-season crops, reaching over 96% of the planned planting area. Five localities have completed the planting of winter-spring rice, including Nam Sach, Binh Giang, Gia Loc, Thanh Mien and Ninh Giang districts. Currently, there are only a few areas of late-season crops in Kim Thanh, Thanh Ha districts, Kinh Mon town and Hai Duong city, farmers mainly plant specialty glutinous rice varieties.

The Department of Crop Production and Plant Protection recommends that localities accelerate the planting process, striving to complete the late-season crop before July 20th so that the rice plants grow tall and are less affected by flooding that often occurs in late July and early August. Ensure sufficient irrigation for newly transplanted rice to prevent wilting and plant death due to lack of water during hot weather. Proactively implement timely drainage plans to avoid flooding and minimize damage during heavy rains.

Farmers keep the remaining seedlings after transplanting, reserve short-term rice varieties such as KD18, BT7, HN6, P6DB... to sow additional seedlings and rice if the seedlings and rice die due to flooding. Expand the production area of ​​concentrated rice areas "one area - one variety - one time" to facilitate care, as well as prevent pests and apply technical advances. Take care of and fertilize rice promptly, in sufficient quantity, and in balance, fertilize early and concentrate so that the rice grows well and tillers early.
