Wheat harvest basically completed in Henan
河南麦收基本结束
Henan's wheat harvest was almost completed as of June 11, with more than 85 million mu (1 mu equals about 666 square meters) of wheat harvested via agricultural machinery.
6月11日，河南省8500多万亩小麦机收作业收官，全省麦收基本结束。
Henan's large-scale machinery harvest work started on May 30 and lasted for 13 days, including 5 days reporting a daily harvested area of over 9 million mu. On June 2, a total of 138,500 combine harvesters put into operation harvested more than 15.43 million mu of wheat, both hitting a record high.
河南省小麦大规模机收作业自5月30日开始，前后历时13天，日收获超900万亩的有5天。6月2日投入联合收割机13.85万台、收获1543万亩，均创历史最高纪录。
During the wheat harvest period, 4 million large agricultural machines have been put into operation, including 216 thousand combine harvesters. After consecutive rainy days, 30 thousand crawler-type harvesters are racing against time to harvest wheat since wheeled harvesters cannot work in the rain-hit fields. 4,660 dryers are also running around the clock to dry the soggy grain. Over 600 service teams and cooperatives have helped the local farmers harvest more than 450 thousand mu of wheat. Farm tracks, open space in the residential areas, squares and government yards are all used for drying wheat.
麦收期间，河南省投入大型农机400万台（套），其中联合收割机21.6万台。连阴雨后轮式收割机下不了地，3万台履带式收割机争分夺秒下地抢收，4660台烘干机昼夜不停运转。600余支常态化农机应急作业服务队、合作社累计帮扶作业面积45万余亩。田间小路、房前屋后、文化广场、政府大院都在为小麦晾晒“腾地”。（中文来源/河南日报 记者/刘晓波 编译/何蒙贺 审校/丁岚）
