历来,小麦是汕头地区冬种的主要粮食作物之一。最近几年来,全区小麦种植面积已由解放初期的18万6千多亩,发展到140多万亩,涌现许多小麦亩产4、5百斤乃至6、7百斤的典型。小麦单产水平低的局面正在向高产稳产方向发展。即使在1978、1979年春遇到历史罕见的长期阴雨寡日,相对湿度大的情况下,有许多单位依然获得稳产高产。以潮安县为例,1978年300斤以上的公社由1977年的2个增至6个,4、5百斤的大队由1977年8个增至22个,还有36个500斤以上的生产队和2个 Traditionally, wheat is one of the major winter cereal crops in Shantou. In recent years, the area under wheat cultivation in the region has grown from 180,000 to 6,000 mu in the early liberation period to more than 1.4 million mu. There are many typical examples of wheat yield of 4,500 and even 6,7 kilograms per mu. The low level of wheat yield is moving towards high-yield and stable yield. Even in the spring of 1978 and the spring of 1979, when there was a long, gloomy history with a rare history, many units were still able to achieve stable and high yields despite the relative humidity. In Chaoan County, for example, the number of communes above 300 kilos in 1978 increased from 2 in 1977 to 6, and the number of 4,5-kilogram troops increased from 8 in 1977 to 22 in 1996. There were also 36 more than 500 kilos of production Team and 2
