METHODS OF SOIL TILTING GIVE HIGH PRODUCTIVITY

SOIL TILTING METHODS BRING PRODUCTIVITY TO CROPS

         

Soil tillage methods that bring good energy to plants are soil preparation (soil improvement) which is an extremely important step in the growing process. Good soil preparation will bring many benefits to crops, especially rice growing. One of the most important steps in preparing the land before sowing is cultivating the soil, also known as plowing. This not only helps reduce harmful pathogens hidden in the soil, but also provides a source of nutrients for rice plants to absorb and grow healthily, giving high yields.

EFFECTS OF LANDING

Tilling the soil before sowing and planting is a very important step because it directly affects the future growth of rice plants. Tilling the soil means disturbing the soil, turning the lower layer of soil to the surface. This method helps improve soil effectively, bringing many benefits in rice farming, specifically:

  • Removing impurities on topsoil: During the process of growing and caring for rice plants with fertilizers, pesticides… After a while, excess chemicals along with natural impurities mixed into the soil will transform into toxic substances. Cultivate the soil to remove these impurities to avoid poisoning the rice plants in the new crop.`
  • Bringing the nutrient-containing soil layer to the surface: After a rice crop, the soil will become infertile because the rice plant absorbs all the nutrients in the soil. Cultivate the soil to move the lower layer of soil containing nutrients to the surface to nourish the seeds/plants.
  • Burying plant residues and harmful insects: When the soil is turned upside down due to the plowing/tilling process, all plant residues, weeds and germs harmful to rice such as golden apple snail eggs, pest eggs, grasshoppers… will be buried and quickly decomposes quickly.
  • Helps the soil to aerate and retain moisture well: Shredded, loose soil will breathe better and retain moisture, creating a well-ventilated living environment for seeds/plants to grow and develop strongly.

THE SOIL TILT METHOD BRINGS PRODUCTIVITY TO THE CROPS

Farmers have long had many effective methods of plowing and improving soil to serve cultivation and increase crop productivity.

Plowing Method:

It is a method of plowing and turning the soil over to dry, drying it as dry as possible. Because there are many toxic residues in rice fields that have just been harvested, sunlight will cause the toxins in the soil to decompose, radiate heat or transform into non-toxic substances. This method also decomposes indigestible organic compounds, forming simple soluble and volatile mineral compounds (called mineralization).

In order for plowing and land preparation to be effective, farmers need to pay attention to:

– Plowed soil must reach a depth of at least 15-20cm, the soil must be turned over to form furrows.

– Minimum drying time is 15 days. With infertile and degraded land, farmers can plow thinly and reverse plow again for better drying. The drier it is, the more effective it is.

Next, people add water to the dried soil. Dry, cracked soil will expand when exposed to water, soft and loose, making it easier for seeds/plants to stick to the soil. At this time, the soil is also restored with nutrients and minerals for rice plants and crops to absorb and grow.

In case there are no favorable conditions for making the pass. For example, if you encounter continuous rain or deep fields that cannot drain, you will have to switch to making beams.

Beam plowing method:

Is plowing the soil while the field is soaked in water. Before plowing, the field soil must be soaked in water for many days. Do not let the soil become wet or dry. Soil soaking reduces toxins in the soil and allows organic compounds to be dissolved.

The beam plowing method is often used for low-lying soils that are difficult to drain. Fields used to make beams must retain water. When conditions permit, the water can only be drained for drying after the summer rice crop has been harvested.

Depending on the terrain, ecology, and crop conditions, farmers apply appropriate plowing and soil improvement methods. In areas with intensive crop growing conditions, in some places up to 3 rice crops a year, and frequent rain, beam plowing is most suitable. At the same time, it is necessary to prepare the soil thoroughly, especially plowing to help loosen the soil and reduce harmful toxins for plants.

Whether beam plowing or strip plowing, farmers need to use good agricultural tools to bring high efficiency in farming, contributing to increasing crop productivity. Currently, mechanization has been widely applied in agricultural production. From soil improvement to plant care and harvesting, everything is done using modern agricultural machines and tools.

However, a smart agricultural machine with many features and utilities is always the best choice for Farmers. With just one machine, farmers can use it for both land preparation before planting and harvesting agricultural products.
