Effect of Reflective Film on Apple Orchard

Apple is a very popular fruit in China, which has a very large planting area in our country. When growing apples, we should do a good job in management, especially in the late stage of apple ripening, and we should usually lay reflective films along the rows of fruit trees to ensure fruit yield and quality. So what is the use of a reflective film in an apple orchard? The following editor will give you a brief introduction, let's have a look!

1. Improve the lighting conditions.

After the apple has entered the later stage of ripening, laying reflective film in the apple orchard can effectively improve the orchard, especially the light condition of the inner chamber of the crown. To ensure that the lower part of the plant and the inner chamber of the fruit can be evenly colored, and improve the total red content and commercial value of the fruit in the orchard. Reasonable laying of reflective film is also the key to ensure the yield and quality of apple. A survey of professional data shows that laying a reflective film in an apple orchard can increase it to 90% or more for fruits with a previous color of about 45%.

2. Soil temperature regulation

In hot seasons such as summer, laying reflective film in the apple orchard can also lower the temperature of the soil. And in winter and other low-temperature seasons, it also has the effect of increasing temperature and heat preservation to ensure the normal growth of apple tree roots. In addition, after laying the reflective film, it can also prevent the soil from being impacted by Rain Water, avoid soil consolidation after rain, improve soil permeability and promote the formation of soil aggregate structure. Moreover, the water storage capacity of the soil with reflective film is obviously enhanced, and the evaporation rate of soil water will be greatly reduced.

3. Improve fruit quality.

In the apple orchard where the reflective film is laid, the appearance of the apple can not only be greatly changed, but also its internal quality can be greatly improved. For example, the sugar content of fruit and the weight of single fruit are much higher than those of apple orchards without reflective film. Therefore, when the apple tree bears the later stage, the reflective film must be laid properly. The use of reflective film can not only increase the yield of apple orchard, but also enhance the quality of apple fruit in all aspects. As a result, the planting benefit can be greatly improved.

The above is a brief introduction to the role of reflective film in apple orchards. From the above we can see that the role of reflective film in the apple orchard is still very many, and it is also very good for the growth of the apple. Therefore, when planting, we must pay attention to laying a good reflective film. That's all for today's introduction. This article is for reference only. I hope it can help you all.
