Features: This book is the preliminary outcome of three years of research on the "Comprehensive Defense Technology Research of Crop Low Temperature Cold Damage" (96-020-01-06), a sub-project of the National "Ninth Five-Year Plan" Agricultural Science and Technology Key Research Program "Agricultural Meteorological Disaster Defense Technology." The main contents include: research on the occurrence patterns and spatiotemporal distribution characteristics of low temperature cold damage, identification and rational matching technology of corn variety maturity, research on technology for determining the appropriate sowing period of corn, research on structural configuration technology of dryland crops, mechanism of low temperature on crop impact, research on technology for configuring and using temperature-enhancing growth agents, and research on comprehensive defense technology of low temperature cold damage. The entire book is compiled from 30 research papers and can serve as a reference for researchers, educators, and those involved in agricultural planning in the fields of agriculture and agricultural meteorology.
