Rare Thunderstorm Weather, Xinjiang 15 Acres Of Cotton Seedlings Were Struck By Lightning.

"I have been planting for so many years.

This is the first time I've met such a strange thing. "

In June 27th, Chen Renwen, a 42 year old regiment and eighty-one regiment of the eighty-one regiment, said on the phone that there were two mu of cotton seedlings in his cotton field.

。

In the same company and he encountered the same 10 households, a total of about 15 acres of cotton seedlings were struck by lightning.

It is understood that the eighty-one regiment is located.

The western edge of the basin is 40 kilometers east of Bole City.

From 9 to 11 June 25th, there was a rare thunderstorm and stormy weather in the regiment.

Chen Renwen recalls that at 9 o'clock that day, he was working in the field, and suddenly it began to rain and thunder and lightning. He hurried to the grass house in the earth to shelter from the rain. "Sometimes he can touch the thunder and lightning occasionally, but the thunder is very big that day, and the lightning is very obvious."

Nearly two hours later, the rain stopped.

When he returned to the cotton field, he saw that there were several cotton seedlings in different fields different from those in other fields.

As I looked closer, I saw that the leaves of these cotton seedlings were all scorched, and the main stems had dried up.

Later, he checked it again in the field, and found that there were 3 such places in the 92.3 acres of cotton field, which had an area of about two mu.

"There are trees around the cotton field, but they are all good."

He said.

Chen Renwen immediately called on the company's agricultural technician Wei Xinhu.

Wei Xinhu told reporters that after hearing the news, he rushed to Chen Renwen's home and found that the two mu of cotton seedlings were dead, and the symptoms were not caused by pests.

Immediately after that, he sampled and identified the case, and at the same time he knew Chen Renwen's situation.

On the same day, in addition to Chen Renwen, Wei Xinhu received 10 phone calls from the company, reflecting the same situation as Chen Renwen.

After field inspection, a total of about 15 mu of cotton seedlings were struck by lightning.

Due to the fact that the cotton has entered the topping stage and the cotton has been hit more seriously, all the cotton being attacked has been completely destroyed.

Among those affected, Chen Renwen lost the most weight, about 3000 yuan.

When talking about how to prevent crops from being struck by lightning, Wei Xinhu's words showed a bit of helplessness.

"I have been engaged in agricultural technology for 15 years. This is the first time that I have encountered such a situation.

And we usually focus on prevention and control of pests and diseases, so there is really no good way to prevent this.

It is understood that at present, in addition to twelve cotton crops suffered lightning strikes, the group has not received reports of other people or objects being struck by lightning.
