小麦是我国的主要粮食作物之一,种植面积居第二位。中国农民对于小麦的灌溉农业技术积累有丰富的經驗,有些經驗現在看起来还是很宝貴的,在世界小麦生产实踐中也是应該受到重視的。由“麦收八、十、三場雨”到“五水三肥”就是小麦灌溉經驗发展的例証。对于小麦的灌溉試驗研究解放后在党领导和支持下得到广泛的开展,并取得很多的資料和成果。在去冬今春兴修水利和农业生产大跃进的高潮丁,小麦产量也出現了大跃进,有些省的小麦单产較前增加了一倍以上,并出現了冬小麦亩产7,320斤和春小麦亩产8,000多斤的“卫星”。这些丰产事例打破了小麦“500斤大关”、“700斤大关”的保 Wheat is one of China’s major food crops with the second largest planting area. Chinese peasants have extensive experience in the accumulation of irrigation agriculture technology in wheat and some of the experiences now appear to be very valuable and should also be taken seriously in world wheat production practices. By “wheat received eight, ten, three rain” to “five water and three fat” is an example of the development of wheat irrigation experience. After the liberation of experimental research on irrigation of wheat, it has been widely carried out under the leadership and support of the Party and gained a lot of information and achievements. At the height of the Great Leap Forward in water conservancy and agricultural production last winter and spring, the yield of wheat also experienced a great leap forward. In some provinces, the yield of wheat more than doubled from that of the previous year, with 7,320 kg of winter wheat and 8,000 tons of spring wheat per mu Kg of “satellite.” These high yield cases broke the wheat “500-kilogram mark”, “700-kilogram mark” insurance
