Support for crops up as harvest starts
A fund of 5.7 million yuan (US$833,942) will be invested by the Shanghai and Jiading governments this year to ensure a summer harvest.
The total amount of the fund has surpassed that of previous seasons.
This year, total land growing wheat in Jiading District amounts to 4,123.3 hectares, an increase of 533.3 hectares compared to last year. Total output is expected to reach 16,000 tons this year.
Wheat had already been reaped by June 18. Since "No. 11 Yangmai" is a species maturing earlier than usual, it is reaped three to four days ahead of cropping in past years.
To get fully prepared for the harvest, the district's agricultural department invested 1.59 million yuan to buy more than 130 reaping machines, tractors, driers, rice transplanters and rice drills.
Also, more than 70 reaping machines were borrowed from other districts and counties to complete the work.
This year, the total planting area for rice in Jiading hit 4,466.67 hectares. Currently, 300,000 kilograms of rice seeds have been distributed to farmers. By June 15, the district had transplanted rice seedlings in 525 hectares and directly seeded 3,140 hectares of rice.
The subsidy for each farmer is 1,200 yuan per hectare but to encourage farmers to plant on a larger scale, an extra 1,050 yuan per hectare will be granted to those who grow on more than 100 hectares.
By reducing the cost, more farmers will benefit.
