Sunflower harvesting can begin as early as the primary days of August, the outcomes shall be tragic
The drought, accompanied by unusually lengthy excessive temperatures, made the grain producer from Plovdiv Ludmil Rabotov to marry the corn prematurely and to promote it as silage, in order to not be at a complete loss. Maize is hybrids supposed for grain manufacturing. Up to now, he has misplaced BGN 100 per acre from the price worth.
The crops that may be irrigated with pivot on his farm are about 400 decares out of a complete of 1,200 decares of corn. Solely the irrigated crops stay, however even they don’t have the luxurious of being watered as a lot as is important for a very good harvest.
“With a particular system, we discovered that transpiration of 1 sq. of corn is 9 liters per day. To ensure that a number of the water to go to fuller cobs and a greater crop, I want to offer over that 9 litres. Nonetheless, that is not possible as a result of there’s little water within the irrigation channel. The rice farmers are ready after me. I rain the corns at 8 liters per sq. meter, sufficient for them to outlive. The second I cease pivoting, it turns into dry, as if I hadn’t watered,” stated Rabotov, who can be the chairman of the Union of Plovdiv Grain Producers.
The sunflower seems to be tragic with small and unfilled seed pods. It dries increasingly more beneath the solar and in Haskovo, for instance, they’re already about to reap it. “I assume I am going to run the mix within the first days of August, too.” In earlier years, I began the sunflower harvest on the finish of August.”
Ludmil Rabotov added that if the drought continues, the soil remedies earlier than sowing the autumn crops may also be threatened.
