The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs says mechanized wheat harvesting in China has accelerated; 76.13 mln mu (≈5.08 mln ha) — 22.44% of the crop — has been harvested. The Huang-Huai-Hai main-production region has moved into large-scale harvesting after a recent dry, sunny window. Provincial progress: Anhui over 35%, Henan over 25%, Shaanxi just over 10%, Jiangsu near 10%; Shanxi shows only scattered harvests, while Hubei and Sichuan are finishing residual harvesting.
