Previously, Henan experienced prolonged periods of rainy weather, which affected the wheat harvest. Timely efforts have been made to carry out agricultural machinery harvesting on the rain-hit wheat fields and drying the soggy grain to minimize losses in grain production due to disasters.
As of June 8, farmers in Henan had harvested 77.79 million mu (about 5.19 million hectares) of wheat, accounting for about 91 percent of the province's wheat planted area.
