How to improve the Survival rate of Fruit Tree planting

When planting fruit trees, the survival rate is the main factor affecting the premature and high yield of fruit trees, so how to improve the survival rate of fruit trees is one of the knowledge that many fruit farmers want to know. After a long time of research, from many aspects of management, can significantly improve the survival rate of planting, let's take a look at it with the editor.

1. Arrange the roots, branches and leaves

When fruit trees are dug up from the nursery, no matter how careful they are, they will cause damage to the roots, so they should be sorted out in time in order to reduce the harvest area. You can use scissors to cut off part of the main root, the large lateral root from the injury cut flat, do not oblique cut, so that the wound is easy to heal. After the root system is injured, the absorptive capacity is weakened, which can not meet the evaporation of the branches and leaves on the ground, so the branches and leaves of the young trees can be cut off half or 2/3 to reduce evaporation, which can significantly improve the survival rate.

2. Select high quality seedlings

The quality of seedlings will directly affect one of the important factors of planting survival rate, so healthy seedlings such as pest-free, robust growth, developed root system and short internodes have been selected as far as possible. Select the seedlings again before planting, and remove the unqualified weak seedlings, growing seedlings, injured seedlings and so on.

3. Timely planting

Spring planting is generally carried out from soil thawing to seedling sprouting, too early or too late is not conducive to seedling survival, because the characteristics of fruit trees are different, its planting time is slightly different, but it is generally appropriate to plant after soil thawing. Before planting, the first is to apply sufficient base fertilizer to improve the growth and development of seedlings; the second is to soak roots with nutrient solution, which can promote root wound healing, speed up the recovery of root growth and improve the survival rate; third, it is necessary to remove the film at the graft interface, if it is not removed in time, the growth of the graft joint is not synchronized, and it is easy to be blown off by windy weather. The fourth is to flatten the root system, when planting, we must flatten the root system, let the root system stretch to ensure the normal growth of the root system; fifth, pour enough planting water, enough planting can make the root soil connect closely.

4. Post-planting management

After planting, we should follow the principle of "promoting before and controlling after", irrigate according to the growth of fruit trees and soil moisture, topdressing at the same time, and pay attention to the prevention and control of diseases and insect pests. After planting, plastic film can be covered, which can effectively increase the ground temperature, resist drought and preserve soil moisture, and promote the early growth of buds. Fertilizer and water can be irrigated once after planting for 10 days and 20 days respectively to promote root recovery.

The above is the introduction of how to improve the survival rate of fruit tree planting. I hope it can help you. If you want to know more about it, please follow us.
