根据毛主席“人类总得不断地总结经验,有所发现,有所发明,有所创造,有所前进”的教导,我们公社于1973年试验推广了兼有土坑催芽和蒸汽催芽之长的早稻土坑蒸汽催芽法。当年全公社1.9万亩早稻中有1.6万亩是用这种方法催芽下秧的。由于抢住了季节,生产主动,早稻总产1,374万斤,比面积相同的1972年增产7％。 According to Chairman Mao’s teaching that “mankind always has to sum up experiences, discoveries made, inventions made, advances made, and advances,” our communes experimented in 1973 with the promotion of a long-sized early rice that had both soil cratering and steam sprouting Soil pit steaming germination method. The whole commune 1.9 million mu of early rice in 1.6 million mu is the method of germination under the seedlings. As a result of grabbing the seasons and taking the initiative in production, the output of early rice totaled 13.74 million catties, an increase of 7% over 1972 in the same area.
