Statistics show that the sown area of Henan's summer grain crops has remained above 85 million mu (1 mu equals about 666 square meters), which is basically the same as that of last year. The crops grow very well and foretell a good harvest this summer. Besides, 4 million agricultural machines will put into use, including 180 thousand combine harvesters and 800 thousand seeders. So far, all preparatory work has been basically completed. Large-scale harvest work will be launched around May 28.
