Fertilizer for fruits
Fruit growth and development need to absorb
a variety of nutrients, in addition to a large number of elements; the trace
elements are also important, if the lack of the susceptible element
deficiencies. Meanwhile, there are still among the various elements helped or
antagonism in the soil. For crop nitrogen increased, while the absorption of
magnesium is also high; the other hand when the nitrogen content is low,
reducing the absorption of magnesium. And nitrogen and potassium, boron,
copper, zinc, phosphorus and other elements are antagonism between them, such
as the excessive application of nitrogen fertilization, instead of the
corresponding application of the above-mentioned elements, the potassium,
boron, copper, zinc, phosphorus and other elements contents on a corresponding
reduction. On the contrary, a small amount of nitrogen applied on the crop, the
potassium content of leaves will be increased. Therefore, less nitrogen content
in soil will help potassium absorption by the crop. In general, the excessive
fertilizer application, if not a corresponding increase in potassium and
magnesium, the inhibition of potassium, magnesium absorbed, potassium and
magnesium deficiencies. But too much potassium, calcium, magnesium absorption
is reduced; the contrary, the low amount of potassium in the crop can increase
the calcium and magnesium content. When calcium is not conducive to ammonia ion
absorption too, will cause slightly alkaline soil. So that iron, manganese,
zinc, boron becomes insoluble, leading to the occurrence of deficiency disease.
However, in actual production, some farmers do not pay attention or do not
understand the balancing effect of fertilizer, often in the fertilizer to
nitrogen, phosphorus-based, others use fewer elements, resulting in deficiency
disease incidence, yield is not high, decrease the quality. To change this
situation, we must understand the soil type, soil nutrients of abundance and
shortage, fruit trees of different nutrient needs, are best carried out soil
testing and fertilizer, fruit trees in order to avoid the occurrence of
deficiency disease.
Apple trees
and apple trees during the fertilizer demand growth is closely related to the
rhythm. Agricultural fertilizer and some apple to apple needs is not the
premise, but rather to capital, labor and other human factors determine the
fertilization period, and thus reach the desired goal of fertilization, and
sometimes counterproductive damage. In recent years, many apple will fall over
base manure applied in spring, breaking the tree "clock."
Decomposition due to nutrient conversion was not timely supply of tree root
absorbing peak of the spring need to use fertilizer, but delayed until late
summer early fall, fertilizer was able to give full play to the spring of smart
growth can not be stopped in time, even in a long spur soon after stopping
second initiation, directly affect the accumulation of organic nutrients and
flower bud formation; also prompted vigorous growth of the tree fall tree,
reducing the accumulation of tree nutrition, affecting apple seedling growth,
lower quality and hardness, meaning lost fertilization.
Basal
application of the time most of the wafer is applied after harvest in apple
basal, base manure missed the autumn the best time. At this time temperature
drop, root activity tends to stop, fertilizer use efficiency greatly reduced,
the relative increase in production costs. After the base manure fertilizer in
spring and leaves, fertilizer play slow, fruit and flowering trees in spring
shoot growth is less important, is not conducive to flower bud differentiation,
is more scientific.
One does not
grasp the depth of fertilizer application. Fertilizer too shallow, causing a
waste of nutrients essential; organic fertilizer too deep (80 cm up and down),
no facilities concentrated in the root level, is not conducive to root
absorption, reduced fertilizer use efficiency.
Second,
fertilization or too few points to mix with the soil, fertilizer is too
concentrated, resulting in high local concentrations of soil, often easy to
produce fertilizer damage, especially due to poor mobility phosphate,
fertilizer is not conducive to play.
Many farmers
in the production of more emphasis on fertilization, but often overlooked work
watering, although a lot of fertilizer, but drought not to maximize fertilizer
efficiency, and thus the yield and quality of fruits great extent. Therefore,
irrigation should be performed after fertilization, when the performance of dry
soil phenomena should also be timely watering. Dry areas, can be Orchard straw
mulch, can maintain soil moisture, but also increase soil organic matter
content.
Spraying can
be absorbed directly by leaves, is an efficient and fast method of
fertilization, it is widely used in the majority of growers. However, some
farmers in the course of spraying, there were some irregularities: first, poor
choice of fertilizer types, such as spraying with ammonium bicarbonate,
resulting in burning leaf; second spraying position inaccurate; Third, the
concentration of control allowed , or high or low. The correct way: First,
spray fertilizer under the trees need to choose the type of nitrogen in urea in
the most widely used and is better. Second, determine the optimum spraying site.
Different nutrients in different tree mobility, nitrogen, phosphorus and
potassium are highly mobile elements, followed by sulfur and chlorine.
Difficult to move iron, manganese, zinc, molybdenum, copper, hardly moving as
boron, magnesium, calcium. Spraying should therefore be different parts,
especially the trace element mobility in vivo difference in the tree,
preferably in need of organs directly sprayed on. In addition, the suction
surface absorbed faster than the leaves, spraying fertilizer spraying when we
should focus on suction surface. Third, determine a reasonable concentration of
spray fertilizer. Must be based on different growth stages and climatic
conditions and the concentration of different species. Should lower the
concentration of young leaves, mature leaves should high; rainfall over the
region and the high season can be more appropriate, should lower the contrary.
In addition, spray volume should be enough to wet leaves, dripping did not drop
as significantly, while leaf spray concentration is generally low, with less
fat content, in order to enhance the effect of spraying fertilizer, preferably
a continuous spray 2 to 3 times more interval of 10 to 15 days.
On fruit
trees, the trace elements requirements of only a few parts per million, but in
some soils when the lack of certain trace elements, or some fruit trees are
particularly sensitive for certain trace elements, only the appropriate
application of this element, Yield and Quality to achieve the purpose. Of Soil
by the National Academy of Sciences of soil zinc, boron, manganese, molybdenum,
copper, iron content of the survey results indicate that most parts of
Yield and
Quality and the fertilizer can increase the resistance to targeted application
of fertilizer, not only can give full play to the economic benefits of
fertilizer, more importantly, to improve fruit production as an effective
technical measures. In recent years, the requirements of fruits gradual
transformation from quantity to quality, rational application of fertilizer not
only increase production, but also to improve fruit yield and quality is
obvious, can effectively enhance the fruit of the disease, low temperature,
high temperature and drought resistance reversibility.
As we all know, trace elements relative to N, P, K and other large elements, the fruit of their requirements is small, but most of the tree body involved in physical activity, and highly specific, normal growth and development of crops that can not be missing and can not be replaced with each other fertilizers. The lack of any trace elements of fruit trees, the growth and development of the inhibited, resulting in cuts and decrease the quality. Application of excessive and would lead poisoning crops, affecting the yield and quality. To improve efficiency in the use of other fertilizers, it must apply, the fitness of crops, proper application of fertilizer, that is based on trace element abundance and shortage of soil, crop requirement and sensitivity, using a reasonable method of application of fertilizer application, with particular attention due to lack of applied not blind abuse.
