One of the main agricultural products is grain. This is not only a source of nutrition for humans (pasta and bakery products, cereals, flour), but also raw materials for technical production, and animal feed. Everything that is obtained from grain is rich in various minerals, vitamins, and in terms of energy value is almost half the daily diet. Demand for such products is and always will be.
Therefore, agricultural producers are interested in obtaining a rich harvest, and, therefore, profit.
What is winter?
Crops are divided into several groups. In terms of sowing, this is winter and yar. The main seasons for this are spring and autumn. Let us consider in more detail what a winter field is.
Spring crops are sown in spring. Crops of cereals that are applied to the soil in late summer or autumn are called winter. This word has a second meaning. So they say not only about the crops or field of crops, but also about the shoots themselves.
Development phases
What is winter, we learn from the following cereals: barley, rye, wheat. They are all sown to the cold. By winter, they come already prepared, well-rooted and seasoned. In the cold season, the winter is at rest, "resting". In the spring, the second phase begins - rapid growth.
It is not at all difficult to explain what winter is and why such crops are grown in areas with a mild winter climate and great snow cover. Winter varieties have a higher yield than spring varieties due to the use of moisture from thawed snow.
Crop Care
What is winter, we examined. Let's talk about caring for these crops. It is necessary to take care of them immediately after landing in the ground. Feeding, make sure that cows and other animals do not wander on the field.
Insufficient snow cover in winter, as well as severe frosts, can cause the death of cereals. Dangerous ice crust on the field. To make it melt faster, you can sprinkle with peat or manure. If there is too much snow, it is necessary to compact it.
