Wheat Crop Alert: Protect Your Harvest from Strong Winds and Heat in Late February!
- •Late February is critical for wheat; rising temperatures and strong winds pose a major threat to yield.
- •Heavy irrigation combined with strong winds can cause plants to fall; irrigate lightly in the evening or use sprinklers.
- •Avoid excessive nitrogen; use potash and phosphorus (00:52:34 or 00:00:50) to strengthen stems and improve grain weight.
- •Spray boron to prevent ear drying and ensure plump, shiny grains by aiding pollination and cell flexibility.
- •Monitor weather forecasts; if strong winds or rain are predicted, stop irrigation to prevent crop lodging.
