1、Effect of phosphite fertilization on growth, yield and fruit composition of strawberries

Strawberry production requires large amounts of unrecyclable and non-renewable plastic, for controlling weeds. Plant growth also requires a considerable amount of water to establish plantings, and depends on frequent applications of pesticides to produce acceptable fruit quality.

2、Organic and inorganic fertilizers influence the productivity, fruit quality and nutrient use efficiency of strawberry

Consequently, this study was conducted to assess the effects of organic and inorganic fertilizers on strawberry productivity, quality, nutrient uptake, and nutrient use efficiency, as well as to ...

3、Improving water and fertilizer use efficiency during the production of strawberry in coir substrate hydroponics using a FDR sensor

Specifically, we aimed to improve water and fertilizer delivery in a coir substrate hydroponics system using frequency domain reflectometry (FDR) sensor-automated irrigation (FAI). For comparison, a conventional fixed timer-based irrigation (TIMER) treatment was applied.

4、Optimization Emulgator Composition Of Water In Oil Emulsion Of Strawberry Fruits (Fragaria vesca L.) Based On Simplex Lattice Design Method

Water-oil emulsion consists of water and oil components were not mixed with each other, thus requiring emulgator to create a system that was homogeneous and stabilize the the antioxidants in strawberry.

Response of strawberry to organic versus inorganic fertilizers: Journal of Plant Nutrition: Vol 39 , No 2

The aim of this research was designed in order to optimize integrated plant nutrient supply (IPNS) through balanced fertilization of organic, inorganic and microbial inoculants in strawberry cv. Chandler.

IMPACT OF PRODUCTION SYSTEMS AND FERTILIZER APPLI

Field-grown ‘Elsanta’ strawberries produced conventionally on raised beds with plastic mulch and with broadcast NPK and Mg and overhead irrigation, were compared with several regimes of fertigation. Treatments with several N rates were applied to determine the optimal N rate for fertigation systems.

Formulations of Biofertilizers – Approaches and Advances

Biofertilizers are the preparations containing live or latent microorganisms, and a formulation enables easy handling, long-term storage, and effectiveness of biofertilizers. It is a delivery vehicle of live microorganisms from the factory to the field.

Soluble solids content is positively correlated with phosphorus content in ripening strawberry fruits

In this study, we first analyzed the ratio of sugar content to SSC in ripening fruits of four different cultivars (two Japanese cultivars, one American cultivar and one Chinese Cultivar). The data showed that on an average 86% soluble solids were sugars regardless of the value of SSC (Table 1).

Agricultural and Food Science, Vol. 13 (2004): 256 267.

All plots in this experiment were fertilized once a year in early spring with 250 kg ha-1 of granulated strawberry fertilizer 8:2.6:14.1. Thus, expressed as nutrients, the above-mentioned three variants each received: 20 kg N ha-1, 6.5 kg P ha-1 and 35.2 kg K ha-1.

Preparation and characterization of cellulose acetate‐coated compound fertilizer with controlled‐release and water‐retention

A novel cellulose acetate-coated compound fertilizer with controlled-release and water-retention (CAFCW) was prepared, which possessed the three-layer structure.

The proper formulation of water-soluble fertilizer for strawberries is critical to improving yield and fruit quality. Below are key recommendations to optimize your fertilization strategy:

1. Understand Strawberry Growth Stages: Strawberry nutrient requirements vary by growth phase. In early growth, nitrogen (N) promotes leaf development; during flowering, phosphorus (P) supports bud differentiation; and potassium (K) is essential for fruit enlargement. Adjust fertilizer ratios according to these stages to align with the plant’s needs.

2. Adjust for Soil Conditions: Soil type impacts nutrient uptake. Acidic soils may require added calcium (Ca) and magnesium (Mg), while alkaline soils benefit from reduced nitrogen. Test soil pH and tailor fertilizer proportions to address deficiencies or imbalances.

3. Account for Climate: Weather affects fertilization needs. In hot, dry conditions, increase irrigation and nutrient frequency. Conversely, reduce applications during rainy periods to avoid nutrient runoff or salt damage.

4. Use Strawberry-Specific Products: Specialized water-soluble fertilizers for strawberries often pre-balance nutrients for optimal growth. Choose formulations designed for strawberry cultivation to simplify adjustments.

5. Timing and Application: Apply fertilizer during peak absorption periods: early growth and flowering. Distribute evenly over soil, then water to dissolve nutrients. Avoid foliar or fruit contact to prevent burn—use drip irrigation or targeted drenching if possible.

6. Storage and Handling: Store pre-mixed solutions in cool, dry conditions away from sunlight. Seal containers tightly to prevent oxidation during transport or storage.

7. Monitor and Adjust: Regularly assess plant health (leaf color, fruit size, taste) to evaluate effectiveness. If issues arise, tweak nutrient ratios or switch products.

effective strawberry fertilization integrates growth stage, soil chemistry, climate, and specialized products. By refining application methods and monitoring results, you can boost yields, enhance quality, and support sustainable farming practices.
