Field management techniques for high yield of ginger

If the cultivation of ginger wants to have a high yield, then its field management is very important. If the field management is not done well, ginger is very prone to disease, which has a great impact on the yield and quality of ginger. So how do we carry out field management? Now let's take a look at it together.

1. Density management

When sowing ginger, we need to make a reasonable density planning, not too dense. Although it is said that seedling transfer and even seedling can be carried out in the early sowing stage and later stage, but this still has a certain effect on the growth of ginger. Under normal circumstances, the spacing between rows of ginger is about 35 cm, and the spacing between plants is about 25 cm. Of course, if the soil quality of the planting land is not good, it can also be planted in close density.

2. Shading and temperature management

After the ginger is sown, we need to build a sunshade, of course, we can also build it after the ginger is full of seedlings, but its purpose is to reasonably control the light intensity and control the effect of shading at about 60%. Wait until July and August to remove the sunshade in time. In addition, we should pay attention to the temperature control in the process of planting, which can cover a layer of plastic film, but when the seedlings are unearthed, the film should be removed in time, and the temperature during the growth period should be controlled between 18 and 25 degrees.

3. Water management

Ginger has the characteristics of being wet, afraid of stagnant water and not tolerant to drought, so it is also very important for us to regulate field moisture in the process of planting. When planting ginger, timely watering and drainage should be carried out according to the growth characteristics of ginger, weather change, dry and wet soil and so on. If it is an area with good rainfall, it only needs to be watered four times a year, namely, seedling emergence, seedling completion, growth period and tuber growth period, but if the weather is not good, it needs to be properly adjusted.

4. Ploughing and weeding

Ginger weeding is generally based on shallow ploughing, which can not only improve the air permeability of the soil, but also enhance the absorption of nutrients and prevent nutrients from being absorbed by weeds. Mid-tillage weeding is generally combined with watering, usually after watering, so as to avoid the phenomenon of land consolidation caused by watering. It is best to carry out weeding twice a year, after emergence and during the growing period of ginger.

5. Cultivate soil and fertilize

Fertilization is a very important step in field management, and ginger needs a large amount of fertilizer, so it should be fertilized according to its different growing periods. Fertilization is generally divided into seedling fertilizer, growth fertilizer, rhizome swollen fertilizer, late fertilizer and foliar fertilizer. The amount of fertilizer application increases gradually with its growth, the early stage of fertilization is generally based on nitrogen fertilizer, the later stage needs to increase the use of phosphorus and potassium fertilizer and cake fertilizer, which can promote the growth of the rhizome. In addition, when the rhizome is growing, we should cultivate the soil properly so as not to expose the rhizome to the ground.

So much for what the editor wants to share with you today. Of course, there is also pest control in field management, especially ginger blast, anthrax, grub and ginger borer, so we should make preparations for prevention and control in advance.
