Common fertilization methods for fruit trees

Fertilization is a necessary operation for the growth of fruit trees, a suitable way of fertilization can make the fruit grow better, but how to apply fertilizer is particular. There are four mainstream fertilization methods for planting fruit trees, each of which has its own characteristics, which growers can refer to. The following editor will introduce these four fertilization methods to you.

1. Fertilizing with furrow

Band ditch is a kind of fertilization method with a large amount of engineering, which is more suitable for fruit trees in the middle and early stages when the amount of fertilizer is large. Dig a band ditch between the two rows of fruit trees, then fill the fertilizer in the middle, and finally cover the soil for the fruit trees to absorb the fertilizer after the root system develops. The ditch needs to choose the depth according to the root depth of the fruit tree species, generally about 50-100 cm, and the width can be controlled at 20-30 cm, which can basically meet the long-term fertilizer supply needs of fruit trees.

2. Mixed fertilization of fertilizer and water

Fertilizer and water mixed fertilization is actually very simple, mixed with compound fertilizer and water, when it melts, it becomes fertilizer and water, and then it can be irrigated, or mulch irrigation can be used. It is more suitable for areas with fewer weeds or relatively arid, and it is a better choice if the planting density of fruit trees is higher. In order to avoid insufficient or excess fertilizer during the later period, we can also choose this method, long-term use can accumulate soil fertility to a certain extent. But the concentration should be well controlled and try to avoid pouring it on the trunk and corroding the branches.

3. Fertilization around the circle of fruit trees.

This method is mostly used for fruit trees that need a large amount of fertilizer, and the process is relatively simple. Dig out a circle around the fruit tree, then add fertilizer, and bury it after the disaster. When digging, you should choose the depth according to the type, and it is recommended that growers dig shallowly, and it doesn't matter if the ring is higher than the flat ground, so as not to rot the roots of fertilizer and affect the growth. To adopt this fertilization method, it is necessary to relatively reduce the amount of water to be irrigated, avoid infiltration of fertilizer and water, and lead to excess nutrition of fruit trees. Its advantage is that the utilization rate of fertilizer is relatively high.

4. Planting hole fertilizer

As the oldest traditional method of fertilization, hole fertilizer is undoubtedly an extremely successful one, ranging from fruit trees to vegetables. Its advantage is that the speed of fertilizer absorption by fruit trees is extremely high, and it is very easy to be absorbed by fruit trees, which belongs to the general type. It is common to put fertilizer directly at the bottom of the fixed hole and then separate it with soil to allow the natural development of the root system of fruit trees to absorb. Nowadays, it is also derived from the multi-purpose method of making one hole, that is, creating fertilizer holes around the fruit trees and accumulating fertilizer for the growth and absorption of the fruit trees.

Of course, these are not common, and many growers have their own unique fertilization methods that are not known to everyone. If you want to communicate with you in this way or promote it, you can come to our website and leave a message for us.
