3、Effects of foliar spray of different Fe sources on pepper

Foliar fertilization of pepper plants with different Fe sources had a beneficial effect on the essential nutrient uptake and transport in plants. Thus, present results revealed that application of foliar Fe must be performed in the aquaponic system, to overcome Fe deficiencies in alkaline conditions and to make better nutritional status.

4、The influence of foliar and soil fertilization of humic acid on yield

The study demonstrates that both soil and foliar HA treatment might successfully be used to obtain higher fruit yield and can significantly enhance fruit quality in organically grown pepper.

The obtained results showed that Nano Active Forte foliar treatment of sweet pepper plants significantly increased fruit yield in protected cultivation.

Effects of Foliar Fertilization: a Review of Current Status and Future

The combination of soil fertilization and foliar fertilization can reduce the use of chemical fertilizers and achieve good production and high yield; thus, use of this combination is an effective measure for alleviating secondary salinization and improving the soil environment.

So, under cool temperature foliar feeding of organic fertilizers (aminochelate) can effectively improve nutrients status and transplant’s quality of pepper. Production of healthy, vigorous seedlings is necessary for the optimum growth and high yields in field and greenhouse production of peppers.

Research Progress on Role and Mechanisms of Foliar Fertilizer in

Finally, the problems existing in the practical application of foliar fertilizers and the prospects for further exploring the mechanism by which foliar fertilizers regulate plant growth and development are discussed and prospected.

Sichuan pepper Cultivation

Harvesting and Processing Sichuan pepper trees typically begin producing fruits after three to five years. The harvesting season usually starts in late summer or early autumn when the fruits turn reddish and mature.

Foliar Fertilization

Another situation where foliar feeding can be useful is in preventing blossom end rot, a physiological disorder that can occur in tomatoes, peppers and summer squash because of lack of calcium.

Sichuan pepper trees, as a common aromatic plant, are widely cultivated in many regions for producing peppercorn oil, powder, and various seasonings. Due to their unique fragrance and flavor, these trees hold significant economic value in the market. to ensure healthy growth and high yields, scientific management and care are essential. Foliar fertilization, a commonly used method, can help accelerate growth, enhance disease resistance, and promote fruit development in Sichuan pepper trees.

I. The Working Principle of Foliar Fertilizers

Foliar fertilizers are sprayed directly onto the leaves of Sichuan pepper trees, enabling nutrients to be absorbed rapidly through the plant’s surface. This method offers advantages over traditional soil fertilization, such as convenience and faster results.

1. Nutrient Absorption

Foliar fertilizers contain trace elements and vitamins that are directly absorbed by plants, fulfilling their nutritional needs.

2. Growth Promotion

Hormones in foliar fertilizers regulate growth cycles, stimulate cell division and elongation, and accelerate plant growth.

3. Improved Stress Resistance

Antioxidant and antibacterial components in foliar fertilizers strengthen disease resistance and reduce pest occurrences.

4. Fruit Development

For Sichuan pepper trees, foliar fertilizers promote fruit growth, enhancing quality and yield.

II. Types and Selection of Foliar Fertilizers

1. Water-Soluble Foliar Fertilizers

These dissolve easily in water and are suitable for most plants.

2. Micro-Emulsion Foliar Fertilizers

Easy to spray and highly effective due to their emulsified form.

3. Solid Granule Foliar Fertilizers

Require dilution with water but offer convenient storage and use.

4. Liquid Foliar Fertilizers

Applied directly to leaves but require careful dilution to avoid damage.

III. Application Methods and Precautions

1. Application Methods

  • Dilute according to product instructions.
  • Spray during early morning or evening to avoid direct sunlight.
  • Ensure even coverage on leaves for maximum absorption.

2. Precautions

  • Avoid overapplication to prevent fertilizer burn.
  • Monitor plant reactions; discontinue use if adverse effects occur and consult experts.
  • Do not mix with pesticides to avoid chemical interactions.

IV. Practical Examples and Effectiveness Analysis

Case 1: Accelerating Growth

A farmer applied a nitrogen-phosphorus-potassium (NPK) foliar fertilizer to 50 saplings, spraying 10 milliliters per plant monthly. After one month, growth rates increased significantly, and plants became sturdier.

Case 2: Enhancing Fruit Quality

Another farmer added 10 grams of NPK foliar fertilizer during irrigation for 50 saplings. Over six months, fruit quantity and quality improved, with brighter color and better taste.

V. Future Prospects and Trends

With advancements in agricultural technology, foliar fertilization will become more widespread. Future innovations may include precise nutrient formulations tailored to specific plants and eco-friendly solutions, aligning with green agriculture goals.
