The situation of this round of heavy rainfall has changed greatly, and the weather forecast for July 2~3, the distribution of heavy rain is as follows!

Today is Monday, July 1, and at 8 o'clock this morning, the Meteorological Bureau continues to issue a rainstorm meteorological disaster warning - Orange Warning for Heavy Rain

It will affect the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River and other regions, and there may be heavy rain or even extremely heavy rain.

Heavy rainfall

Starting from July 2, the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River will usher in a significant rainfall process, which is characterized by a wide range and heavy rainfall. Specifically, the areas affected by the rainfall include Hubei, Hunan, Jiangxi, Anhui, Guizhou, Guangxi and other areas in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, as well as the eastern part of the Sichuan Basin, Chongqing, and Shaanxi Guanzhong. Among them, some areas of Hubei, Hunan, Anhui and Jiangxi are likely to have heavy rainstorms, and some areas of Guizhou and Guangxi may even have extremely heavy rains.

According to the forecast of the meteorological department, during the day on July 3, there is a possibility of heavy rain in southwestern Anhui, eastern Hubei, western and northeastern Hunan, northern Jiangxi, southeastern Guizhou, and northeast Guangxi, and 250 to 260 mm of heavy rain may occur locally. Moreover, this rain will last for a long time, starting from the 2nd to the 4th, and the strongest period of rain will be concentrated during the day on the 3rd.

For agriculture, heavy rainfall can have a certain impact on the growth of crops, especially extreme precipitation weather such as heavy rainstorms and extremely heavy rains. This effect is mainly two-fold, on the one hand, the excess of water, for some shallow root crops, such as rice, corn, vegetables, etc., the root system of these crops is not strong enough, if the surrounding water and soil change, it is easy to cause lodging.

On the other hand, there is the loss of nutrients, which usually contain a lot of nutrients in the soil, and these nutrients are often carried away with the water flow, and if it rains heavily for several days in a row, the nutrient loss will be more serious.

In view of this situation, agricultural technicians should strengthen daily field management in normal times, such as timely loosening of soil and stubble, strengthening fertilization, and building appropriate scaffolds, etc., to improve the ability of crops to resist natural disasters. In addition, it is necessary to strengthen the control of pests and diseases, because prolonged heavy rain will lead to an increase in humidity in the air, which is very beneficial for the breeding of various germs and pests. If these germs and pests are not controlled, they are likely to be fatal to crops along with rain.

In addition to agricultural technicians, relevant departments should also do a good job of prevention. Heavy rainfall often leads to waterlogging in urban and rural areas, which not only threatens people's lives and property, but also causes damage to surrounding farmland. Drainage must be done in a timely manner, especially for farmland in low-lying areas.

The impact of heavy rainfall on agricultural production cannot be ignored, but as long as we take effective measures, we can reduce the losses caused by disasters. The efforts of agricultural technicians and relevant departments are crucial, and I hope that everyone can work together to protect our farmland and crops and make agricultural production run smoothly!
