Effects of Different Fertilization Modes on Banana Orchard Soil and Banana Quality
Partial replacement of chemical fertilizers with organic fertilizers is an important way to reduce fertilizer usage and increase efficiency,while soil conditioners such as lime play an important role in regulating soil pH and improving soil physical and chemical properties.The rational application of organic fertilizer and lime in banana fertilization is of great significance for improving soil quality and fruit quality in banana plantations.This article was based on the current situation of banana production in Zhangzhou area,and studied the effects of four different fertilization modes(single application of chemical fertilizer,chemical fertilizer+lime,1/3 organic fertilizer replacing chemical fertilizer,and 1/3 organic fertilizer replacing chemical fertilizer+lime)on soil quality and banana quality in banana plantations.The results showed that the content of organic matter,exchangeable calcium and exchangeable magnesium in the soil of banana orchard could be significantly increased after three years of combined application of organic and inorganic fertilizers with lime,thus increasing the soil pH and cation exchange capacity(CEC),reducing the soil bulk density,improving the soil physical and chemical properties and soil microbial activity,and reducing the incidence rate of banana wilt disease from 36.5%to 4.2%.
