Abstract:

The study aims to grasp the precipitation change and drought risk degree of crop growth season in central Liaoning, and provide reference for the adjustment of agricultural industrial structure, the avoidance of drought risk and the management of agricultural production in the region. Using the precipitation and temperature data of Shenyang Regional Meteorological Center from 1961 to 2020, the author adopted the climate diagnostic analysis method, and chose integral humidity index and dry and wet index to study the satisfaction degree of precipitation to crop growth season, drought change characteristics and drought risk degree. The results showed that the precipitation in the growing season of crops in central Liaoning decreased from 1961 to 2020, with a linear decrease of 40.5 mm. Precipitation satisfaction degree and dry and wet index both showed a downward trend, with a linear decline of 14.5% and 0.13, respectively. The drought risk degree showed a significant upward trend, with the maximum drought risk degree increasing by 17.3%, and an average increase of 11.0 percentage points from 2000 to 2020. Medium drought and severe drought in sowing and seedling periods was about once every three years. Medium drought and severe drought in crop vigorous growth period was about once every 20 years, medium drought and severe drought occurred once every four years in crop mature period. The results can provide reference for understanding the change state of precipitation and drought change characteristics in central Liaoning, recognizing the severity of drought, and avoiding drought risks. The research can also be conducive to “agriculture, rural areas and farmers”, food security, agricultural structure adjustment, drought disaster prevention and mitigation.

Key words: crop growing season, precipitation, integral wet index, dry and wet index, drought risk degree
