How to apply base fertilizer for high-yield ginger? Please give guidance
Ginger is a pungent seasoning vegetable with high yield, high fertilizer demand and high economic benefit. In Shandong, it is sown from early April to early May. Meeting ginger's demand for soil nutrients is the foundation for achieving high yield. Now that the ginger planting season has arrived, ginger growers are once again faced with the question of choosing and applying base fertilizer. Here is a discussion of how to select base fertilizer and how to apply it to achieve high yield and high quality in ginger:
First, select base fertilizer according to ginger's fertilizer requirements: ginger is a large plant with a long growth period, high yield and high fertilizer demand, and it is a fertilizer-loving and fertilizer-tolerant crop. Cake fertilizer in particular has complete and long-lasting effects and can avoid disease transmission through fertilizer, making it a fertilizer ginger likes. Second, select base fertilizer according to the concept of soil microecological balance: in ginger production areas, continuous cropping year after year has made various soil-borne diseases increasingly serious, and production difficulty has increased accordingly. More beneficial bacteria should be applied to optimize the soil ecological environment, repair, improve and maintain good soil properties and higher productive capacity. Third, select base fertilizer according to the principle of balanced fertilization through nutrient supplementation: regulate soil nutrient balance.
Based on the above principles, the ideal base fertilizer for ginger is one that combines organic matter, inorganic nutrients, medium and trace elements and beneficial bacteria, combining quick and sustained effects. According to trials and screening by agricultural technology departments such as the Laiwu Soil and Fertilizer Station, "Dingtai" brand biological prickly ash cake organic fertilizer is relatively suitable. This fertilizer uses prickly ash cake as the main raw material, adopts purely imported Japanese enzyme bacterial strains, uses aerobic fermentation with enzyme bacteria, and is produced and processed through a biological chelation process. The prickly ash cake it contains, along with large amounts of beneficial microorganisms and prickly ash extract, can produce harmful substances against harmful soil bacteria or reduce the number of pathogens and root infection through pathways such as nutrient and spatial competition, thereby reducing disease occurrence. At the same time, it has a certain degrading effect on continuous cropping obstacles caused by ginger autotoxicity and other factors. Application year after year can promote a reasonable soil nutrient structure, improve the soil, increase yield, and sustainably maintain the soil's relatively high productive capacity.
Scientific application method for ginger base fertilizer: sufficient base fertilizer must be applied before planting ginger. The base fertilizer is applied by the method of 50% broadcast application over the full layer and 50% furrow application. The specific method is as follows: during land preparation, broadcast 80-120 kg of "Dingtai" brand biological prickly ash cake organic fertilizer per mu, along with 50-75 kg of ternary compound fertilizer and farmyard manure, then deep plow and open furrows and form ridges. At sowing, apply an additional concentrated 100 kg of biological prickly ash cake organic fertilizer plus 50 kg of ternary compound fertilizer in the furrow, then use a two-tooth hoe to mix the fertilizer and soil evenly. After watering to soak the furrow, ginger can be planted.
