Muping apples dare to compete with Qixia apples
Recently, the "Haizhuangyuan Cup" 2013 Shandong Large-Scale Planting Champion Competition, specifically the Apple Planting Champion Competition, was successfully launched in Muping, Yantai. The event was hosted by Shandong Television, organized by the Agriculture and Science Channel of Shandong Television, and co-organized by China Ocean University Bioengineering Development Co., Ltd.
Muping apples also dare to take on Qixia apples
At the launch ceremony of this competition, Haida Biological Company also invited senior agronomist Zhu Xingkai to the site to answer questions for fruit growers, and held a lecture on apple planting knowledge for them at the launch ceremony. Haida Biological Company's good deeds of caring for fruit growers and keeping the "three rural issues" in mind won unanimous praise from the fruit growers.
It is understood that senior agronomist Zhu Qingkai is 64 years old this year. He had previously been engaged in agricultural technology extension work in the Qixia area, having worked in agricultural technology for more than 30 years, and has very rich experience in agricultural technology extension. When asked about the differences and gaps between Muping apples and Qixia apples, Zhu Qingkai said that the varieties and traits of Muping apples and Qixia apples are actually similar, and the natural conditions are not very different either, but the quality and brand of Qixia apples are more prominent.
Speaking of the reasons, Zhu Qingkai said that the gap between the apples of the two places is determined by the current soil conditions and agricultural technology levels of the two places. Due to unreasonable fertilization, serious problems have appeared in the soil quality of the Muping area, and apple quality has declined. As for the agricultural technology level, Zhu Qingkai specifically mentioned fertilization methods. He said that fruit growers in the Muping area do not have a correct understanding of scientific fertilization methods, resulting in improper fertilization and affecting apple quality.
