What is the method of growing sugar beets only once every few years?

The planting scale of sugar beet is getting larger and larger, affected by the benefits of sugar beet planting, more and more farmers begin to turn to planting sugar beet, but due to the lack of sufficient understanding of sugar beet planting methods, the quality of sugar beet planted is not high, the quantity is not large, in order to improve the planting level of growers, today to introduce the method of sugar beet planting.

I. soil selection

Soil is the basis of sugar beet growth, if you want sugar beet to grow well, the soil needs to be very fertile, and the root system of sugar beet is more developed, so it needs a thicker soil layer, and at the same time, the growth of sugar beet needs more water. Therefore, it needs convenient irrigation conditions of the land, and the content of organic matter in the soil must be rich, which is the basic condition of the land needed for planting sugar beet.

Second, temperature control

Sugar beet planting can begin when the temperature is stable at 5 degrees Celsius. Generally speaking, at least 15 kg of seeds per hectare are needed. After sowing the seeds into the field, the seeds need to be covered tightly with soil. When planting, it is best to choose artificial on-demand sowing, so that you can better grasp the distance between each seed. Generally speaking, the planting depth is maintained at about 3 cm. The spacing between each plant is 25 centimeters, and about 60, 000 sugar beets can be planted per hectare.

III. Field management

1. Weeding often needs to be carried out after sugar beet planting. Basically, weeding needs to be done about three times before the ridge is closed, and the field needs to be ploughed.

2. The general tillage depth is about five centimeters, and the temperature of the field can be raised by ploughing. When the weather temperature of sugar beet seedlings drops greatly, it is also necessary to increase the frequency of cultivation, which is maintained at once a week. After cultivation, the land needs to be loose, and weeds are removed, and the seedlings can not be pressed in the process of cultivation, let alone hurt the seedlings, if sugar beet seedlings are hurt. It is easy to cause the death of seedlings.

IV. Water and fertilizer management

1. When the root of sugar beet begins to grow, foliar fertilizer should be sprayed every half a month. Foliar fertilizer can promote the rapid growth of sugar beet and increase the size of beet root.

2. It should be noted that if there is rainy weather within a few hours after spraying foliar fertilizer, it is necessary to re-spray foliar fertilizer, while in the later stage of sugar beet growth, usually around August, it is necessary to spray potassium dihydrogen phosphate in the beet field, usually once in ten days, a total of three times, spraying potassium dihydrogen phosphate sugar beet, sugar content will be higher

3. In the process of planting sugar beet, one thing we should pay attention to is that the leaves of sugar beet should not be damaged, even the leaves that have occurred diseases and insect pests should not be artificially damaged, otherwise the yield of sugar beet will be greatly reduced.

5. Timely harvest

When the temperature changes to about five degrees, and it is estimated that the sugar content of sugar beet is 16%, it can be picked. There is a certain amount of time for sugar beet picking. Picking too early will lead to lower sugar content and less yield. If the picking time is too late, the sugar beet will be frostbitten by low temperature weather, resulting in a reduction in the number of sugar beets.

These are the key points that need to be paid attention to in sugar beet planting. Sugar beet is a kind of high-benefit and high-cost crop, and farmers need to pay more attention to planting scientifically in the planting process.
