Last Updated: 2024/11/05, Millet, which is also millet, is one of the main food crops in China, especially in the north. The nutritional value of grain is very high, rich in protein and vitamins and other nutrients, not only edible, but also has the effects of clearing heat and relieving thirst, tonifying spleen and stomach and so on. It's also possible.

Millet, which is also millet, is one of the main food crops in China, especially in the north. The nutritional value of grain is very high, rich in protein and vitamins and other nutrients, not only edible, but also has the effects of clearing heat and relieving thirst, tonifying spleen and stomach and so on. It can also be used as feed for poultry. So how to grow millet? The following editor has brought the planting technology of millet, let's have a look!

1. Site selection and seed selection

Millet planting plots should choose soft and flat, deep black soil, normal drainage and irrigation and high content of organic matter. Avoid continuous cropping, the previous stubble property can not be millet, in time after the selection of land preparation, fine rake, to promote seed germination and emergence. Then select good varieties, we should choose superior varieties with strong stress resistance, high yield, high commodity value and high nutrition. Then dispel the inferior seeds and soak the seeds in salt water to select inferior seeds such as withered and light weight to improve the quality of the seeds. Then the normal seeds were air-dried with chemicals to enhance the disease resistance of the seeds.

2. Sowing seeds at the right time

Observe the soil temperature and start sowing when the average soil temperature rises to about 8 degrees. The main purpose is to ensure the water content of the soil, dig a good planting hole after finishing, and cover the soil evenly after sowing. If you encounter Rain Water weather after sowing, it is necessary to crush the consolidated soil in time to promote seed germination and seedling emergence to ensure strong seedlings. Millet can be properly closely planted, and we should establish a reasonable structure when planting, and control the planting density according to the topography and soil fertility. For example, flat land and fertile plots should increase the density, on the contrary, the density will be reduced.

3. Rational fertilization

First of all, we should apply sufficient base fertilizer, which is mainly based on fully mature farm manure, supplemented by calcium superphosphate, combined with soil preparation to turn it into the soil. After sowing, it is necessary to do a good job of topdressing, mainly nitrogen and phosphorus fertilizer, promote seed germination, improve seedling growth rate, and meet the nutrition needs of millet during the growth period. When the seedlings grow to about 40 cm, about 5 cm away from the seedlings, dig fertilizer trenches, evenly sprinkle nitrogen fertilizer, and then cover the soil to improve the conversion rate of nitrogen fertilizer. When topdressing, we should strictly control the amount of fertilizer to prevent excessive fertilizer, the effect is too strong to burn out the seedlings, but affect the growth of millet.

4. Field management

When the seedling grows to 3-4 true leaves, it is necessary to press the seedling in time to promote the development of the seedling and help to strengthen the root. Then when the seedlings grow to 3 cm high, do a good job of inter-seedling work, start to fix seedlings at 6 cm, and retain seedlings with normal growth, strong growth and free of diseases and insect pests. During the growth period of millet, we also need to do a good job of weeding and loosening soil to improve the development of roots. It should be noted that although millet is a drought-tolerant crop, it needs a certain amount of water at jointing and filling stages. in case of drought, it is necessary to irrigate and fertilize in time to promote the development of flower ears and improve the number of grains and seed setting rate.

The above is a brief introduction of millet planting technology, and we should also focus on the prevention and control of diseases and insect pests. Millet has strong disease resistance and low incidence of disease, but it is still threatened by diseases and pests, such as aphids, armyworm and so on. Everyone should check regularly and pay attention to the prevention work in order to ensure the healthy growth of millet. That's all for today's introduction. This article is for reference only.
