Mung bean planting precautions

We must be no stranger to mung beans, and they often appear on our porridge. And in recent years, more and more people keep in good health, and the demand for mung bean in the market is also increasing, which leads to the continuous expansion of mung bean planting scale and the situation of supply exceeding demand. But today, the editor will not discuss this with you. Let's take a look at what we need to pay attention to when growing mung beans.

1. Soil

Mung bean is very adaptable to the environment, so the requirement for soil is not high. But what we should pay attention to in the process of planting is soil preparation. In order to ensure the emergence rate of mung bean, we should dig the land deeply and clean up the underground pests and other impurities in the field, so as to reduce the harm of insect pests to mung bean. The second is to apply enough base fertilizer, the base fertilizer should be evenly mixed with the soil, which is conducive to enhance soil fertility and increase the yield of mung bean.

2. Time

Mung beans generally sprout when the temperature is about 15 to 20 degrees. In most parts of our country, mung beans can be sown in spring and summer. If sowing in spring, it is usually from the end of April to the beginning of May, and no later than mid-May at the latest. Summer sowing will take place around the middle of June, whether it will be later than July 10 at the latest. If the sowing time is inappropriate, it will directly affect the emergence of mung bean seeds.

3. Moisture

Mung bean has strong drought resistance, but it also needs a certain amount of water. In general, in the early stage of mung bean growth, the basic upper part needs to be watered, unless the weather is continuous dry, resulting in a serious lack of soil water, then in order not to affect the growth of mung bean, appropriate watering is needed to keep the soil moist. However, if there is more rainfall, it needs timely drainage, and if there is stagnant water in the field, it will have a great impact on mung beans. Especially in the mung bean pods, this will lead to pods rot and other problems, but in this period of time there must be a certain amount of moisture, otherwise flat pods are also easy to appear.

4. Nutrients

We should mainly pay attention to the principle of mixed use of organic fertilizer and inorganic fertilizer, which is mainly based on farm fertilizer, supplemented by chemical fertilizer and mixed use of organic fertilizer and inorganic fertilizer. When applying base fertilizer during soil preparation, seed fertilizer is also needed when sowing, while in the process of mung bean growth, at least three times of topdressing are needed, namely, adding rhizobium, topdressing ammonium nitrate, urea and spraying foliar fertilizer. In addition, it is necessary to grasp the time of topdressing, so that it can achieve the best effect of increasing production.

5. Harvest

There are two main points we should pay attention to when harvesting. The first is to harvest in batches, and the second is to harvest in a timely manner. If the harvest time is not right, it will have a great impact on the yield and quality of mung bean. If mung beans are harvested before they are fully mature, there will be a lot of flat grains, but if they are harvested too late, mung beans are easy to crack, resulting in all mung beans scattered on the ground. In general, when we wait until the color of the mung bean pod changes to a slight brown, it is fuller to touch with our hands, so we can basically harvest it.

So much for the notes on mung bean cultivation that the editor is going to introduce to you today. I believe that through the reading above, we also have a basic understanding of mung bean cultivation. I hope you will have a more smooth planting process after that.
