The advantages of planting wheat in deep ploughing

At present, everyone will carry out deep ploughing before sowing food crops, and it is certain that deep ploughing can improve the soil and enhance the soil permeability. Deep ploughing is also one of the tasks that must be done before planting. Reasonable deep ploughing can promote the growth of wheat, improve resistance, increase yield and so on. So what are the specific benefits of deep ploughing for wheat? Today, the editor brings you the advantage of deep ploughing before planting wheat. Let's have a look!

1. Water conservation and fertilizer conservation

The root of wheat can elongate very high, and the ability to absorb nutrients is very strong, many friends ploughing depth is only about 20 centimeters, but this depth is not enough. Therefore, increasing the depth of soil ploughing can promote the extension and expansion of wheat roots, and can get adequate nutrition. And if the ploughing depth is deep enough, it is not easy to lose water and fertilizer, which is very beneficial to the nutrition absorption of wheat roots, improve the water and fertilizer conservation of soil, strengthen the soil capacity of plough layer, promote the growth of wheat and increase the yield.

2. Reduce the disease

Wheat growth will produce different diseases due to many factors, including soil-borne diseases, soil-borne diseases are mainly caused by soil consolidation and poor permeability. Deep ploughing can reduce the incidence of soil-borne diseases and improve the disease resistance of wheat. Because deep ploughing will bury weeds and some potential germ eggs deep in the ground, while most germs and eggs are only suitable for breeding in shallow soil. And some will be ploughed to the ground and die after being exposed to the sun, thus reducing the incidence of soil-borne diseases.

3. Improve fertility

Now everyone will carry out waste utilization, such as turning corn, sorghum and other straw into the soil to improve soil fertility, which is desirable. However, when turning the straw into the soil, many friends only ploughed the shallow soil, which not only could not provide soil fertility, but also made the roots of wheat not penetrate into the soil at all, resulting in the death of wheat seedlings in a large area. Therefore, the deep ploughing depth needs to be more than 20 cm, which not only improves the soil fertility, but also allows the straw to have sufficient ripening time and improve the straw conversion rate.

4. Prevent lodging

Lodging is the most common problem in growing wheat, mainly because the depth of deep ploughing is too low, because if it is too shallow, the root can not extend to a deeper place in time. Therefore, the lodging resistance of wheat is not so strong, after deep ploughing, the deep soil is softer, which can promote root growth, make the root absorb a wider range of nutrients, stronger ability, and improve the lodging resistance of wheat.

These are the advantages of deep ploughing before planting wheat. In fact, if the method of deep ploughing is proper, it is very beneficial to the growth of wheat. However, the depth of deep ploughing is not with sowing but also deeper, sowing too deep will lead to seed germination hindered, seedling emergence time delay, serious cases do not emerge. So everyone must pay attention. That's all for today's introduction. This article is for reference only. Thank you for your reading and support.
