A Detailed Guide to Ya Pear Planting Methods and Key Technical Points
The Ya pear, also called the white pear, is a relatively ancient fruit variety, but because of its strong adaptability, high yield and good fruit flavor, it is widely grown in various regions of our country. The cultivation techniques for Ya pears in our country can be said to be basically complete, so today let us have a good discussion about Ya pear cultivation techniques. Let's read the wonderful content below together.
1. Soil Improvement
The Ya pear has strong adaptability to the environment, but the soil of the planting site is best suited to deep soil, with a loose top layer and firm lower layer; acidic or alkaline sandy loam with strong water permeability and water retention can all be used for planting. Before planting, the soil of the planting site needs to be improved, generally requiring deep plowing; dig the planting holes with a row spacing of 4 m and a plant spacing of 2 m, and add an appropriate amount of farmyard manure to the planting holes, combined with a three-element compound fertilizer, so as to balance the soil structure. Finally, cover the outermost layer with a layer of fine soil to conceal it, so as to prevent the loss of fertility and also avoid damage to the root system of the Ya pear seedlings.
2. Seedling Management
After planting the selected healthy and excellent Ya pear saplings, we need to compact the soil and water thoroughly once to promote the growth of new roots in the seedlings and improve the survival rate of the Ya pear saplings. The entire stage before the Ya pear tree enters the fruiting period belongs to the young tree management stage. During this time, our fertilization should follow the principle of frequent application of light fertilizer, mainly nitrogen fertilizer, combined with soil and miscellaneous manure applied in furrows, which can promote the growth of the saplings and help them enter the flowering period as early as possible. Also, during the young tree period, we need to prune branches and leaves, organize the tree shape, prune the crown, and reasonably control the density between branches to prepare for future high yields. Finally, we must also do a good job in pest and disease control so as not to affect the normal growth of the Ya pear tree.
3. Mature Tree Management
Mature tree management is the management of fruiting trees, so we need to divide it into different growth stages for management. During the growth period, we need to carry out one intertillage, combined with spring fertilizer, which is mainly urea. During the flowering period of the Ya pear tree, we need to carry out a second topdressing, mainly with phosphorus and potassium fertilizer, and during this period we also need to reasonably thin the flowers to improve the fruit-setting rate of the Ya pear. After the Ya pear has set fruit, it is necessary to remove deformed fruit, weak fruit, diseased and insect-damaged fruit, and densely clustered fruit, which can improve the quality of the Ya pear, while also carrying out topdressing, mainly with potassium fertilizer, combined with foliar fertilizer spraying. Finally, after the fruit is picked, it is necessary to prune branches and leaves, clean and disinfect the orchard, and apply winter fertilizer.
4. Points to Note
Planting Ya pears is actually very simple, but if we want high yield and high quality, there are still many things we need to pay attention to during the planting process. First is the selection of saplings; we should choose high-quality, well-developed root system, and healthy saplings. Second is water management; during the planting process we should pay attention to regulating water according to the water requirements of its different growth stages. There is also attention to pest and disease control, so as not to endanger the growth of the Ya pear tree and cause planting failure. Finally, reasonably control the light intensity, which can also reduce the probability of pest and disease occurrence and, to a certain extent, improve the yield and quality of Ya pears.
Although there are now many varieties of pears and the economic position of Ya pears in the market has been continuously declining, many people are still planting Ya pears, and at the same time we also hope to help all the friends who are still persisting in planting Ya pears.
