Latest Techniques for Orchard Management After Bagging Peach Trees
Peach trees are relatively popular in fruit cultivation in our country, and nowadays when people grow fruit trees they always bag the fruit. Peaches are of course the same; bagging can increase the yield and quality of peaches and effectively control various pests and diseases. But bagging is not as simple as it seems, and orchard management after bagging is relatively important. Below, the editor brings you orchard management after bagging peach trees, so come and take a look with the editor!
1. Intertillage and Mounding
Before bagging, the orchard soil should be subjected to one round of intertillage and mounding, turning and disinfecting all the soil in the orchard to a depth of no less than 50 cm. When turning, apply a certain amount of base fertilizer, which can be crop straw and fully rotted farmyard manure. After turning, water promptly; the most suitable time for turning is around the Start of Spring each year, but for some windy and rainy areas it cannot be done in spring, to prevent excessive water from affecting the growth of the fruit trees. The main purpose of turning is to increase the fertility of the soil and ensure the fruit trees have enough nutrients to absorb.
2. Fertilization Management
As just mentioned above, base fertilizer should be applied well during intertillage, and the amount of base fertilizer depends on the soil area, usually at a rate of 4000 kg/mu. Then, according to the soil fertility and the growth of the peach trees and various other factors, topdress appropriately, control the nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium content in the fertilizer, do not apply a single nutrient alone, and also ensure the supplement of trace elements. Do a good job of topdressing at each key stage of peach tree growth, such as flowering and fruiting and the fruit expansion period. Also spray foliar fertilizer appropriately to promote leaf photosynthesis and increase the accumulation of photosynthetic substances in the fruit trees.
3. Reasonable Watering
Water is one of the indispensable substances for peach trees to flower and fruit, and watering work should be strengthened during the seedling stage, pit-hardening stage and expansion stage of peach trees, when water demand is relatively high. However, although peach trees like water, they are not tolerant of waterlogging; once there is too much standing water in the orchard, root respiration is blocked, and various substances harmful to peach tree growth are easily produced, and in severe cases the peach trees die. So in rainy and stormy weather, be sure to drain the standing water from the orchard in time; if drainage is not timely, it may cause all the peach trees in the orchard to be drowned.
4. Disease Control
Disease control, whether bagged or not, is the most important management work, and the harm of disease to peach trees can be called a devastating disaster. If we do not do a good job of orchard management before and after bagging, it will lead to a higher incidence of disease. So after bagging we should do a good job of orchard management, prevent the fruit trees from developing wounds, improve the resistance of the fruit trees, and strengthen the immune system. In winter, do a good job of clearing the orchard, reduce the pathogens lurking in the orchard, and lower the incidence of disease.
The above is a brief introduction to orchard management methods after bagging peach trees. To grow high-yield and high-quality peaches, bagging work is necessary. However, bagging also requires certain skills, otherwise it not only cannot promote growth, but may also cause greater harm to the quality of the peaches.
