Matters needing attention in intercropping pear trees

Intercropping and intercropping is a traditional planting mode in China, and with the continuous development of agriculture, this model has caused the plants of the majority of farmers and has been widely used. The pear orchard is very suitable for intercropping, but we should also pay attention to some problems in intercropping, otherwise it will affect the growth and development of the two crops. Let's take a look at the points for attention in pear intercropping with Xiaobian.

1. Crops should not be high.

Pear orchard should not be intercropped with corn, sorghum and other crops, which will seriously affect the ventilation and light transmittance of pear trees, pear trees are light-loving fruit trees, once the lack of light, it will affect its growth, development and yield. Suitable for legumes, potatoes, peanuts, strawberries and other dwarf crops intercropping.

2. the growth period should not be too long.

The growth period of pear orchard should not be too long, especially perennial crop intercropping, which will affect the fertilization and cultivation of pear trees and adversely affect the growth of pear trees. It should be intercropped with crops with short symbiotic period of pear trees, such as rape, garlic, green manure and so on.

3. It should not be deep.

The root system of pear tree is more developed and deeply rooted, so it is not suitable for intercropping crops with developed root system and deep root system, so as not to compete for water and fertilizer between crops and pear trees. Before root distribution, crops with undeveloped main roots, such as some vegetables, should not be intercropped with crops with strong soil digestibility. Like beets.

4. Should not be close.

Intercropping in the pear orchard should not hold the crop close to the trunk or under the crown, so as not to hinder the management of the pear tree and affect the growth of the pear tree. The distance between intercropping should be as far away from the pear tree as possible, and the crown is generally more than 50 cm vertically. to ensure the normal growth of pear trees and crops without interference with each other.

5. Avoid intercropping root medicinal materials

The income of intercropping traditional Chinese medicine in pear orchard is several times or even dozens of times higher than that of intercropping crops, but not all Chinese herbs are suitable for intercropping, for example, root Chinese herbs not only have a long growth period, but also easily cut off the root system of pear trees during mining.

6. Give priority to fruit

After intercropping, the management of fertilizer and water should be strengthened according to the cultivation of pear trees and intercropping, but the principle of giving priority to fruit should always be adhered to. When there is a contradiction between the growth of egg pear trees and intercropping crops, control measures should be taken to create conditions for the normal growth and development of pear trees.
