  Present Situation and Development Trend of Silage Corn Industry in China WANG Xiaoguang, SHI Guiqing, LIU Chunge, WU Peng, WANG Ronghuan, SHAN Hong, FENG Peiyu, CHENG Guanglei Journal of Agriculture    2023, 13 (7): 20-24.   DOI: 10.11923/j.issn.2095-4050.cjas2021-0118 Abstract + (778)    HTML (25)    PDF (1114KB) (731)       Knowledge map    Silage corn has the reputation of "the king of feed", and generally accounts for about 80% of roughage in the diet formula of dairy cows in developed countries such as the United States. In recent years, the planting area of silage corn has shown a rapid upward trend. In 2016, the planting area of silage corn in China was about 1 million hectares, reaching 1.67 million hectares in 2018, and increasing to more than 2 million hectares in 2020. The number of silage corn approved varieties has also shown explosive growth, with 7 national and provincial silage corn approved varieties in 2016 and a peak of 50 in 2019. From the analysis of planting costs and profits in the national survey, the benefits of planting silage corn are relatively considerable. China has initially formed circular industrial chains such as silage corn seed enterprises, silage production enterprises, and silage consumption enterprises and so on, but there is still a lack of powerful functional departments and industrial organizations to promote the rapid development of the industry. An authoritative evaluation and pricing mechanism for silage corn products beyond the interests of industrial chains has not been established yet. With the continuous improvement of the breeding level of animal husbandry in China, people have gradually enhanced their understanding of the "double-high crops" of the utilization rate and transformation efficiency of whole plant silage corn. On the basis of becoming the main diet of dairy cows, silage corn will further become a high-quality feed for ruminants such as beef cattle and sheep, and the silage corn industry will usher in a new wave of development.

  The Effects of Staged Sowing on Yield and Quality of Summer Maize CUI Zhaoyun, ZOU Junli, YANG Rongguang, SHI Zhaopeng Journal of Agriculture    2023, 13 (5): 1-9.   DOI: 10.11923/j.issn.2095-4050.cjas2022-0046 Abstract + (314)    HTML (17)    PDF (1213KB) (406)       Knowledge map    The objective of the study is to explore the effects of different sowing dates on dry matter accumulation, yield and quality of summer maize under the background of climate change. ‘Denghai 605’ was used as the test material, four sowing dates were set: May 31 (sowing date 1, S1), June 10 (sowing date 2, S2), June 20 (sowing date 3, S3) and June 30 (sowing date 4, S4), to study the effects of different sowing dates on plant height, leaf area index, dry matter accumulation and distribution, grain filling characteristics, yield and quality formation of summer maize under different climate backgrounds in different years. The yield of summer maize varied from year to year at different sowing dates. The yield was higher under S3 in 2018. S1 had the highest yield in 2019, which was higher than that of other years. S2 had the highest yield in 2020, which was significantly higher than that of other sowing dates. Maize population yield was significantly correlated with accumulated temperature, ear diameter was significantly correlated with precipitation, and extremely significantly correlated with sunlight; ear length was significantly correlated with sunlight. Different sowing dates had an impact on the content of grain protein, fat and starch, and had a greater impact on crude fiber content. Accumulated temperature was significantly correlated with grain fat content and crude fiber content, and sunlight was significantly correlated with grain starch content. The effect of sowing date on plant height was relatively small and the effect on leaf area index was large. Sowing at the right time could effectively increase the leaf area index and biomass of maize. Leaf area index was significantly higher under S2 and S3 in 2018, especially the leaf area index under S3 were higher than that of other sowing dates in this year, the ear dry matter accumulation was high at the harvest stage, and the yield was higher than that at other sowing dates. Sowing at the right time can make full use of local climatic conditions, improve the utilization of sunlight, temperature and water resources by summer maize, promote the transfer of photosynthetic assimilates from the leaves to the ears, and increase the rate of grain filling, thus effectively increasing grain weight and ensuring the formation of yield and quality.

  Effects of Climate Change on Main Growth Stages of Winter Wheat in Linyi and Determination of Suitable Sowing Time TENG Shihui, LI Xiaoxia, LIU Qingjuan Journal of Agriculture    2023, 13 (4): 18-24.   DOI: 10.11923/j.issn.2095-4050.cjas2022-0011 Abstract + (307)    HTML (8)    PDF (1354KB) (249)       Knowledge map    To study the impact of climate change on winter wheat production in Linyi City and determine the suitable sowing time and appropriate field management measures, based on the meteorological data of Linyi City from 2001 to 2021 and the seedling survey data of agricultural and rural departments, as well as the historical weather data of Linyi City from 1962 to 2000, we adopted the linear trend prediction to analyze the change law of temperature and accumulated temperature during the winter wheat growth period and the date and duration of main growth stages. The results showed that the suitable sowing time and each growth stage of winter wheat in Linyi City had different responses to climate change. The suitable sowing time was from October 8 to 19, and the best sowing time was from October 11 to 14. The frequency of repeated cooling in tillering stage increased, which enhanced the cold resistance of wheat before winter and was conducive to the formation of strong seedlings; the increase of accumulated temperature before winter and the delay of overwintering period indirectly delayed the suitable sowing time, which could provide better conditions for the late harvest of maize of the previous cropping. The early returning green and significant increase of accumulated temperature after returning green greatly shortened the growth suspension and overwintering time of wheat, increased its actual growth time, and was conducive to the transformation of winter wheat seedling; the early jointing stage could make wheat be more vulnerable to late frost (cold) and late spring cold. The temperature drop in April and May provided better climatic condition for wheat heading, flowering and grain filling, especially, the temperature drop in May, which not only reduced the probability of dry hot wind, but was also conducive to wheat grain filling in the later stage. This study determined the suitable sowing time of winter wheat in Linyi City, and provided a basis for field management and high-yield cultivation of wheat in the whole growth period.

  New Wheat Varieties (Lines) in Dry and Fertile Land in Huang-Huai Wheat Area: Preliminary Identification and Classification of Drought Resistance at Seedling Stage SUN Xianyin, MI Yong, MU Qiuhuan, LV Guangde, QI Xiaolei, SUN Yingying, YIN Xundong, WANG Ruixia, WU Ke, QIAN Zhaoguo Journal of Agriculture    2023, 13 (4): 9-17.   DOI: 10.11923/j.issn.2095-4050.cjas2022-0016 Abstract + (306)    HTML (7)    PDF (1371KB) (215)       Knowledge map    Understanding the drought resistance of new water-saving wheat varieties in dry and fertile land of Huang-Huai wheat area is conducive to wheat variety popularization and breeding. Under the condition of simulated drought stress with 15% PEG-6000 (polyethylene glycol) solution, 50 wheat varieties (lines) of recent years were used as experimental materials to measure the changes of seed germination rate, seedling height and chlorophyll content, and to evaluate and classify the drought resistance. The results showed that wheat seed germination rate and seedling height were significantly correlated with drought resistance at seedling stage under the stress. The 50 materials were divided into 4 categories, including 4 highly drought resistant germplasms (D value of 0.8255-0.9980), 10 drought resistant germplasms (D value of 0.6516-0.7270), 28 drought sensitive germplasms (D value of 0.4941-0.6354), and 8 highly drought sensitive germplasms (D value of 0.3079-0.4676). Compared with using average membership function value to evaluate the drought resistance, the classification results could be reasonably and intuitively presented by using the D value evaluation combined with the longest distance system cluster analysis. Therefore, the experiment confirmed that under the stress of 15% PEG-6000, the germination rate and seedling height of wheat could be used as the main indicators to evaluate the drought-resistance ability at seedling stage. The drought resistance of the 50 varieties (lines) was distinguished, which could provide a basis for the selection and promotion of drought-resistant and water-saving varieties.

  Effects of Maize and Soybean Intercropping on Agronomic, Quality and Yield Traits of Soybean ZHAO Xiaoguang, ZHAO Xingzhong, LIU Haomeng, XIAO Jinping, ZHANG Pu, ZHANG Yalei, WANG Liping Journal of Agriculture    2023, 13 (8): 18-24.   DOI: 10.11923/j.issn.2095-4050.cjas2023-0022 Abstract + (258)    HTML (11)    PDF (1189KB) (265)       Knowledge map    In order to expound the changing rules of agronomic traits, quality traits and yield traits of soybean varieties under maize and soybean intercropping mode, 7 soybean varieties and maize variety 'Shandan 650' were selected for intercropping, and the differences of various traits of soybean varieties under the intercropping and the monocropping modes were analyzed. The results showed that the plant height, pod height and nodes on main stem of intercropping soybeans were higher than that of monocropping soybeans, but the pod number per plant and pod density of intercropping soybeans were lower than that of monocropping soybeans, and the growth period of intercropping soybeans were longer than that of monocropping soybeans; the crude fat and protein of intercropping soybeans were higher than that of monocropping soybeans, the content of saturated fatty acid of intercropping soybeans were lower than that of monocropping soybeans, but the content of linoleic acid and linolenic acid of intercropping soybeans were higher than that of monocropping soybeans; the grain weight per plant, number of grains per plant and number of grains per pod of intercropping soybeans were lower than that of monocropping soybeans. The changing rules of 100-grain weight were not consistent among different varieties. The average yield of 7 soybean varieties under intercropping mode was 49.88% lower than that under monocropping mode. Through the analysis of various traits, it provided strong support for us to select suitable soybean varieties in different regions for maize and soybean compound planting.

In order to effectively promote the green development of agriculture and continuously improve agricultural ecological environment, based on literature, scientific research results and production practices, this study summarized high-efficiency pesticide reduction and green alternative technologies (zero application of chemical pesticides, pesticide reduction, and precise and efficient pesticide application) suitable for agricultural production in Sichuan hilly area. (1) Zero application of chemical pesticides aims to prevent and control pests and diseases through physical, biological and agricultural measures. (2) Pesticide reduction realizes less application of chemical pesticides mainly through the development of high-effective pesticides and the addition of high-effective additives. (3) Precise and efficient pesticide application is based on the prediction and forecast of crop diseases and insect pests to achieve the best control effect with the least amount of pesticides. Scientific and high-efficiency pesticide application and green alternative technology are important premise for achieving high-quality and green development of agriculture in China. This study can provide certain guidance for the prevention and control of pests and diseases, and the efficient and green agricultural production in Sichuan hilly area.
