Fallen - Tofuku

Japanese: 倒伏 - とうふく
Fallen - Tofuku
When crops fall over due to wind or rain while they are growing. In rice, wheat, and other crops, about 70% of the starch in the kernel is produced after heading, so if the kernel falls over after heading, the kernel will not ripen well, the yield will decrease, and harvesting will be difficult. To prevent this, it is necessary to avoid dense planting and excessive use of nitrogen fertilizer, as well as deep plowing, early planting, and pest control.

Japanese:
作物が生育中に風や雨などによって倒れること。イネ,麦などでは種実中のデンプンの約70%は出穂後できるため,出穂後に倒伏すると稔実(ねんじつ)は悪く収量は減少し,また収穫作業も困難になる。倒伏防止には密植や窒素肥料を多用しないことや,深耕,早植,病害虫防除なども必要。
