The latest way to improve the benefit of Potato planting

Potatoes are what we call potatoes in our lives. Potato is very popular in our country. It is not only a vegetable, but also a major food crop. With a relatively wide planting area, the output of potato is getting higher and higher, and the competitive pressure is also increasing. Many growers want to improve the efficiency of planting but do not know what to do. The following editor will briefly introduce the ways to improve the efficiency of potato planting, let's have a look!

1. Soaking seeds to accelerate germination

Potatoes should do a good job of soaking seeds and accelerating germination before sowing. First of all, cut the seed potato into pieces, which can be cut into about 50 pieces per kilogram. Each seed block should be of the same size as possible and have more than one bud eye. Then wash the potato pieces and soak them in carbendazim and other agents for about a quarter of an hour. Then fish it out to dry, and about three weeks before sowing, put the potato pieces in the wet sand to do the germination work. The temperature is controlled at about 15 degrees, and the seeds can be sown when the buds are exposed. This can effectively improve the germination rate, enhance the growth ability of potatoes, and naturally improve the planting efficiency.

2. Sowing seeds at the right time

The sowing time of potatoes is also required, usually in February-March of each year. Sowing time should not be too early and too late, too early, the temperature is too low, it will inhibit potato sprouting and reduce planting efficiency. If the sowing is too late, the mature time will naturally be delayed, which may miss the time to market, which will also affect the planting efficiency. After sowing, a layer of plastic film should be covered, and the plant spacing should be controlled at about 60cm to 25cm. The growth cycle of potato is relatively short. Under normal planting, it can be harvested from May to June.

3. Environmental control

Potato has certain requirements on the environment in the process of growing. And if you want to improve the yield and planting efficiency, then you must control the planting environment. When the potato grows, the demand for water is relatively large, and the water content of the soil should be controlled at about 55%. Sufficient water can effectively promote the growth of potatoes. So we must often water, especially in the summer high temperature, if the lack of water, then it will have a great impact on its growth. Then it is necessary to reasonably adjust the soil and fertilization methods to create a suitable environment for the growth of potatoes.

4. Rational harvesting

As we approach the harvest season, we should often observe the growth of potatoes. When it is found that the leaves of potato plants are yellowing, it means that the potato has gradually matured. Then, 30 days before harvest, the work of water and fertilizer should be stopped properly to avoid excessive nutrient water and reduce the storage capacity of potatoes. At the time of harvest, it is necessary to properly improve the harvest speed to prevent direct sunlight from potatoes, resulting in green skin, reducing commodity value and affecting planting efficiency.

The above is a brief introduction to how to improve the efficiency of potato planting. In fact, it is relatively simple to improve the planting efficiency of potatoes, as long as we do a good job in daily management and strengthen the prevention and control of diseases and insect pests. That's all for today's introduction. This article is for reference only. I hope it can help you all.
