In order to accelerate the sustainable development of the cotton industry and promote the cotton industry to become better and stronger. Recently, Awati County organized various township (town) village committee secretaries and large growers to carry out cotton “dry sowing and wet planting” technical training, passing on high-quality and efficient cotton cultivation technology to the majority of growers, and effectively improving the technology of growers. level.
At the training meeting, the technicians focused on the “dry sowing and wet out” technology, combined with the team’s research results, and explained in easy-to-understand language the problems existing in cotton production in Xinjiang’s saline-alkali lands and “dry sowing and wet out” The necessity of technology has corrected operational misunderstandings and improvement measures for cotton planting. At the same time, questions raised by growers were answered on the spot. The content of the course has been well received by the participants, who all expressed their intention to apply what they have learned to continuously increase cotton production and achieve increased production and income.
Han Jianguo, director of the Layidang Village Committee in Uruchole Town, Awati County, said: “Through this training, I learned the cotton planting technology and experience of ‘dry sowing and wet planting’. , I want to provide good training to the villagers and teach the common people experience, so that the common people can increase their production and harvest.”
The “dry sowing and wet sowing” technology is called the “drip under the film to store moisture and discharge salt” planting technology, that is, The cotton fields harvested in the previous year will no longer be irrigated in spring and winter, but will be plowed, prepared, and filmed directly. Ground pipes and drip irrigation tapes will be installed within 30 hours to drip water and divert moisture. The seeds will be sown when the temperature and humidity are suitable. It not only saves spring and winter irrigation water in cotton fields, but also achieves the growth goal of uniform, strong and even cotton seedlings, laying a solid foundation for high and stable cotton yields.
It is understood that the cotton planting area in Awati County this year is more than 1.2 million acres, of which more than 200,000 acres are grown using the “dry sowing and wet planting” technology, which fundamentally alleviates the cotton season in saline-alkali land. Sexual water tension. At the same time, the Awati County Agriculture and Rural Affairs Bureau also conducted on-site observation meetings to provide training on field management, pest control and other knowledge, to summarize experience in vigorously promoting the “dry sowing and wet seeding” technology, and to ensure cotton seedling emergence and preservation from all aspects , increase production, and continue to help Awati County improve cotton quality and efficiency.
Wang Tongren, director of the Agricultural Technology Extension Center of the Awati County Agricultural and Rural Affairs Bureau, said: “Through the training, everyone has a deeper understanding of the ‘dry sowing and wet sowing’ technology, which laid the foundation for our crop sowing this year. This laid a solid foundation.”
