WINTER AGRICULTURAL DEVELOPMENT:BRINGING INTO PLAY RESOURCES SUPERIORITYIN RED-YELLOW SOIL AREAS
发挥红黄壤地区冬季资源优势、大力发展冬种农业

The red yellow soil areas lie in a humid and subtropical zones of China with advantageous hydrothermal conditions for agricultural development,especially for winter agricultural development.Various models for winter agriculture have been developed,such as winter crops,winter oil crops,winter green manures,winter vegetables,winter grasses,etc.The development of winter agriculture can not only alleviate contradictions between population and land resources,but also increase grain production and farmers' income,and compensate fodder shortage as well.This will contribute substantially to the sustained and high efficient agricultural development.Different strategies to the rational utilization of superiority resources for winter agricultural development are proposed.
