How much does a mango sapling cost? Key points of cultivation and management techniques included
In recent years, mango cultivation has become increasingly favored by fruit growers, and mango market prices are also fairly good, so how much do mango saplings cost? What are the key points of cultivation and management techniques?
1. How much do mango saplings cost?
Mango-growing areas in China are mainly distributed in Hainan, Guangxi, Guangdong, Yunnan, Sichuan, Fujian, Guizhou and other provinces and regions. Mango saplings from different places of origin differ somewhat in price.
2. What are the key points of mango cultivation and management techniques?
1. Timely planting
The planting time can be chosen from August to October each year, and planting should be done on a rainy or cloudy day. One month before planting, dig holes and apply base fertilizer, and the actual hole specifications need to be controlled. The bottom width is 60cm, the depth is 70cm, and the width is 80cm; apply an appropriate amount of farmyard manure and calcium magnesium phosphate fertilizer in each hole. During planting, a suitable planting method needs to be selected.
A solution of the corresponding concentration can be prepared with strong rooting powder, and then the seedling roots can be soaked in the solution before planting, which can increase the survival rate of mango seedlings. After planting, root-setting water should be watered, then the soil should be compacted, plastic film should be covered on the upper layer of soil, management measures should be strengthened, and seedlings should be replanted in time according to the actual growth of the mango.
2. Reasonable close planting
At present, reasonable close planting measures need to be adopted, and the spacing between plants and rows needs to be controlled. At present, the spacing between plants and rows can be controlled at 4m×4m and 2.5m×4m. Under normal growing conditions, these two planting methods can be adopted for planting on flat land, and 2.4m×3.5m can be chosen for planting on sloping land. In order to increase mango planting returns, suitable planting measures can be selected at the beginning of planting, and after the growth period has passed 3-5 years, the whole orchard needs to be renovated.
3. Fertilizer and water management
In dry seasons, watering measures need to be taken every 5-7d to ensure that the soil in the tree disk remains moist. During the seedling stage, nitrogen and phosphorus fertilizers should be applied in time, and potassium fertilizer should be added in an appropriate amount according to the actual growth of young trees.
One month before flowering, mango enters the flower bud differentiation stage. Fertilizer needs to be applied before flower bud differentiation, and nitrogen fertilizer, potassium fertilizer, etc. can be applied, which can effectively promote flower bud differentiation in mango plants.
After the mango tree flowers fade, fruit-strengthening fertilizer needs to be applied. The fruit growth rate accelerates about 30d after the flowers fade. At this time, growers need to add urea and potassium chloride, etc. as fruit-strengthening fertilizer according to the actual growth of each plant, and it can be used together with phosphate fertilizer.
4. Pest and disease control
The main insect pest is the mango shoot borer, which is actually quite harmful and needs to be focused on for control during planting. Drugs such as deltamethrin or cis-deltamethrin at the corresponding concentration can be selected for control; for aphids, trichlorfon can be selected for spraying to kill them; for the leaf-cutting weevil and the short-headed leafhopper, a mixed diluted solution of trichlorfon and omethoate can be selected for spraying.
Warm reminder: Pruning of mango trees is also very important. It can better promote fruit growth and fruiting, enable the fruit trees to develop in a balanced way, comprehensively improve the fruiting problems of the fruit trees, comprehensively increase the overall yield of the fruit trees, expand the economic benefits of planting, optimize the light transmission of mango tree planting, avoid the occurrence of various pests and diseases, and improve the overall quality of mango fruit.
