Frost damage during the wintering period of winter wheat can significantly affect crop yield, and it has become a recurring issue in the Huanghuai region in recent years, causing substantial economic losses to farmers. Understanding the causes of frost damage and implementing timely preventive measures or post-damage recovery strategies can help reduce its impact. Here are the main reasons for freezing injury and corresponding solutions:
1. **Strong Spring Characteristics in Varieties**: Winter wheat requires a cold period to complete vernalization, which is essential for proper growth. Varieties that require lower temperatures and longer periods for vernalization tend to be more cold-resistant. However, if a variety is too spring-type, it may not develop sufficient resilience, making it prone to frost damage. When such varieties encounter cold weather before winter, they may prematurely start growing and jointing, increasing their vulnerability.
*Prevention*: Monitor the seedlings regularly. If excessive growth is observed, pull up the plants to check for signs of elongation at the base. If elongation is present, take actions like root pruning or deep cutting to control growth.
2. **Early or Late Sowing**: Both early and late sowing can lead to poor winter survival. Early sowing may cause the wheat to pass vernalization before winter, entering the two-edge stage, which increases the risk of frost damage. Late sowing results in weak seedlings with fewer tillers and less stored sugar, reducing their ability to withstand cold.
*Antifreeze Measures*: Avoid overwatering, especially when soil moisture is low. Apply mulching to promote healthy growth.
3. **Excessive Nitrogen Fertilizer Use**: While nitrogen is essential for wheat growth, overuse can lead to weak, elongated stems and insufficient sugar accumulation, making the plant more susceptible to frost damage.
*Countermeasures*: If this occurs, immediately implement water control, root suppression, or root cutting to limit growth.
4. **Sowing Too Deep**: Although wheat can grow at a depth of around 10 cm, planting deeper than 4 cm can weaken the seedlings and delay or prevent tillering. The tillering stage must occur close to the soil surface, and if the seed is too deep, the stem may not elongate properly, leading to poor development.
*Solution*: Improve field management, apply mulch, and maintain proper soil moisture.
5. **Sowing Too Shallow**: If the planting depth is too shallow, especially in dry soil, secondary roots may not develop properly, affecting tillering and weakening the plant’s cold resistance.
*Solution*: During cultivation, ensure the soil covers the roots and provide moderate irrigation to encourage secondary root development.
6. **Dry Field Conditions**: In sandy soils, lack of moisture can hinder tillering and overall growth, resulting in weak seedlings and reduced frost resistance.
*Solution*: Water promptly if possible. If not, perform soil scratching to break the capillary action and reduce moisture loss.
By addressing these factors through proper agricultural practices, farmers can better protect their winter wheat from frost damage and improve overall crop resilience.
