Ground Preparation And Fertilization Of Ginger

Ginger is supplied with nutrients during the germination period. The seedling period grows slowly and requires less fertilizer. After the "three-strand branch", a large amount of nutrients are required, which accounts for about 88% of the total absorption during the whole growth period. The demand for fertilizer during the whole growth period is potassium fertilizer, followed by nitrogen fertilizer, and phosphorus fertilizer is less. The absorption ratio of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P2O5), and potassium (K2O) is 1:0.5:2. Under moderate fertility conditions, to produce 1000 kg of ginger products, it needs to absorb 5.76 kg of nitrogen (N), 2.54 kg of phosphorus (P2O5), and 11.47 kg of potassium (K2O). Fertilization should be based on the law of ginger fertilizer requirements, total soil nutrients and fertilizer effects, in accordance with the principle of combining organic fertilizer with inorganic fertilizer, base fertilizer and topdressing, and implement balanced fertilization. The root system of ginger is thin, shallow, and has a long growth period, so sufficient base fertilizer must be applied. It is best to deep plow the weathered soil before winter, and raking finely in the spring of the following year. Combined with plowing, generally 3,000 kilograms of decomposed organic fertilizer and 30 kilograms of potassium sulfate per acre, or 800 kilograms of organic fertilizer compound fertilizer and 20 kilograms of general calcium per acre are used as base application. After the base fertilizer is applied, it can be used for soil preparation, which can be made into flat borders or ditched for sowing. Use furrow sowing, furrow distance 50-55 cm, furrow width 25 cm, furrow depth 10-12 cm.

Sowing

Choose sunny and warm weather for sowing.
