How to plant fig trees? If you plant figs in this way, you will have good quality and high yield!

Figs are not only the newly killed "high-priced Internet celebrities" in the fruit industry, but also known as one of the fastest fruit trees because of their short hanging time, high yield and few diseases and insect pests. therefore, it has become the planting project choice of many rural entrepreneurs, so how to plant fig trees with good quality and high yield? Next, let's introduce the specific planting methods of fig trees.

First, how to plant fig trees? What is the planting method?

1. Variety selection

Fig varieties with high yield and high quality are recommended, such as Bojihong, Ziguo, Bordeaux, Zibao, 108B, 110C, 118D, 121E and so on. These varieties have strong disease resistance, adaptability, large fruit and high sugar content, and taste refreshing.

2. Planting plot selection

Fig tree is a kind of fruit tree with developed root system, so weak alkaline or neutral loam (sandy loam) with deep soil layer should be selected when planting. If the soil is slightly acidic, then it is recommended to improve the soil with limestone before planting.

3. Cultivation and planting

At present, growers buy fig seedlings directly on the market. In order to ensure the survival rate, spring planting is recommended, supplemented by autumn planting. Spring planting can be done from mid-March to early April every year, and autumn planting can be carried out at the end of November.

When planting, it is recommended to dig deep holes, and apply sufficient bottom fertilizer and water, row spacing of about 2 meters, plant spacing of about 1.5 meters.

4. Fertilizer and water management

On the basis of planting and applying sufficient base fertilizer, figs need to be topdressing every 2 months or so, mainly nitrogen fertilizer before the fruit, and phosphate fertilizer, potassium fertilizer and calcium fertilizer can be applied in the fruiting period.

Pay attention to turning the soil and watering after each topdressing, but do not water too much each time, just keep the soil moist.

5. pay attention to the prevention and control of diseases and insect pests

Figs are usually free from diseases and insect pests as long as they are taken care of properly, which is one of the advantages of growing figs.

However, more prevention can be done from rust, anthrax and longicorn beetle pests.

When will the planting of fig trees bear fruit? What is the yield per mu?

Under normal circumstances, fig trees can hang fruit in the same year when they are planted and mature one after another from June to November.

The yield per mu of figs in the first year can reach about 500kg, while the high yield period of figs is 3-5 years after planting, and if managed, the yield per mu can reach more than 2500 kg.

With regard to yield, if the variety is selected properly and the planting method is reasonable, there is no need to worry too much. Figs are based on high yield in the planting project.

Third, how much is the market price of figs per jin? How's the profit?

1. The market price of figs

The market demand for figs is relatively large, but because the fruit itself is more difficult to keep fresh, the market price of figs is slightly more expensive than other fruits.

The general market purchase price of fresh figs is about 15 yuan / kg, and the market retail price is more than 24 yuan / kg.

Dried figs can be sold for more than 80 yuan per kilogram, and preserved fruit can be sold for more than 120 yuan per kilogram if the quality is better.

2. The profit of planting figs

If it comes to the high-yield period of figs, then the output value of figs per mu is about 80-100000 yuan, excluding land rent, labor, seedlings, management, transportation and other costs, the profit can reach about 40-50, 000 yuan, or quite considerable.
