Research On Drought Resistance Mechanism of Wheat

Abstract

Soil drought affects 66% of Kazakhstan's arable land. Grain yields could drop by 37% by 2030 and 48% by 2050 as a result of the drought, according to scientific predictions. The amount of harvested crops could not be sufficient to meet demand because grain consumption is rising at the same time. The development of drought-tolerant wheat cultivars is a vital undertaking given the conditions in this country. In context of global warming, the issue of drought currently affects not only Kazakhstan but the entire world.
