When the soil grows thin, feed it this kind of fertilizer: sweet fruit, fragrant vegetables, and a guaranteed harvest

Over the years, many farmer friends have reported that the fertilizer used on their farmland keeps increasing, yet not only is there no increase in yield, but instead the melons grown are not sweet and the vegetables are not fragrant, and the soil fertility has declined. What exactly went wrong?

??

This is because the farmland has relied on chemical fertilizers and pesticides year after year, which not only destroys the soil structure and causes it to lose its self-regulating ability, but also leaves behind too many harmful substances, so farmers have no choice but to keep increasing the amount of chemical fertilizer used, ultimately forming a vicious cycle.

Under these circumstances, microbial inoculants that can restore soil vitality are attracting more and more attention from sharp-eyed farmer friends and agricultural supply dealers. So in what ways do they work?

1. Inhibiting pathogenic bacteria

The beneficial bacteria in the inoculant multiply in large numbers, forming a dominant population near the plant roots and inhibiting the life activities of other harmful bacteria, thereby preventing various soil-borne diseases of crops.

2. Improving soil structure

Microorganisms can accelerate the decomposition of organic matter and promote the formation of granular structure, comprehensively improving the soil's ability to retain and supply fertilizer, retain and supply water, and its air permeability.

3. Degrading harmful substances

They decompose pesticide residues in the soil, avoiding the phytotoxicity of residual pesticides to the next season's crops. They also decompose the harmful substances released through the root system during plant growth.

4. Nitrogen fixation, phosphate solubilization, and potassium solubilization

Some beneficial bacteria can activate the poorly soluble phosphorus and potassium fertilizers in the soil, allowing them to be absorbed and used again by crops. Therefore, they can greatly improve the crop's utilization rate of fertilizer, thereby reducing the amount of chemical fertilizer used.
