Abstract:
      The path analysis was made between meteorological factors and yield of wheat in Changwu County in the arid plain north of the Weihe River. The results showed that: the major meteorological factors which effected yield of wheat were precipitation and surface temperature. Precipitation had great effect during sowing to seedling emergence stage, while surface temperature had even more remarkable effect during the stages of tillering to overwintering, turning green to jointing, and filling to milk. During past 50 years in this area, air temperature had a rising trend significantly, basically identical with global climate change. With great fluctuation, the annual precipitation had a decreasing tendency in general, especially during sowing to emergence period. The ground temperature had an increasing trend during turning green to jointing period, with a greater range after the year of 2000. So it was good to improve the yield of wheat by climate warming, but with a fluctuation of precipitation, it was hard to make sure the yield under the regional climate change.
