The aim of this work was to test how much fertigation could improve WUE and FUE relative to potato production in Inner Mongolia.

4、Nitrogen management indicators for sustainable crop production in an

This study highlights the evaluation of NMIs to increase yields while reducing fertilizer N input and reactive N losses in intensive potato production systems under drip irrigation in Inner Mongolia, China.

Response of potato to fertilizer application and nutrient use

Potato production in Inner Mongolia is limited by unbalanced nutrition and inadequate water supplies. Field trials find balanced fertilization can significantly increase tuber yield for both rainfed and irrigated potato.

GROWING POTATOES IN INNER MONGOLIA (Part 1)

To improve potato quality and yield, the principle of ‘applying enough base fertiliser and timely topdressing’ should be embraced and mastered by growers. The key to growing high-yielding and high-quality potato crops is reliant upon a scientifically-based method of fertiliser use.

Fertigation improves potato production in Inner Mongolia (China)

Thus, we suggest the use of drip fertigation for potato production in Inner Mongolia, where water resources are limited. No potential conflict of interest was reported by the authors.

Inner Mongolia only has 1.86% of total freshwater in China; however, traditional flood irrigation (FI) method with low WUE in potato production is instrumental in causing a severe water...

Methods for Applying Foliar Fertilizer to Potatoes in Inner Mongolia

Foliar fertilizer is a highly efficient nutrient source that can be directly sprayed onto plant leaves. It is rapidly absorbed, has high utilization rates, and effectively replenishes essential nutrients for crops. In potato cultivation in Inner Mongolia, proper use of foliar fertilizer can significantly improve yield and quality. The following methods outline best practices for applying foliar fertilizer:

1. Choose the Appropriate Foliar Fertilizer Select a foliar fertilizer based on the potato’s growth stage, soil conditions, and climate. Compound fertilizers containing nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K) are generally effective. Prioritize stable and easily soluble formulations to ensure uniform distribution during spraying.

2. Dilute the Foliar Fertilizer Mix the fertilizer with water at the recommended ratio, stirring thoroughly before use. Typically, apply 50-100 kilograms of diluted fertilizer solution per mu (approx. 0.067 hectares). Adjust quantities as needed. Rinse the fertilizer container with clean water before use to prevent nozzle clogging.

3. Optimize Spraying Time Apply foliar fertilizer in the morning or evening, when temperatures are cooler and transpiration rates are lower. Avoid spraying during midday heat to prevent leaf scorching.

4. Ensure Even Coverage Use a sprayer or manual application to distribute the fertilizer uniformly across leaves. Avoid over-concentrating the solution in one area to prevent excessive nutrient buildup.

5. Follow Safety Protocols Wear protective gear (masks, gloves) to avoid direct skin contact with the fertilizer. Keep away from water sources and open flames to ensure safety.

6. Monitor Crop Response After application, observe plants for signs of distress (e.g., yellowing, wilting). These may indicate over-fertilization or excessive concentration. Adjust dosage or switch to a different formula if needed.

7. Schedule Regular Applications Foliar fertilization is not a one-time task. Apply 2-3 times per year per mu, depending on crop needs and soil nutrient levels. Tailor frequency and dosage to specific conditions.

8. Integrate with Other Fertilization Methods Use foliar fertilizer as a supplement to organic fertilizers, soil amendments, and top-dressing. Combine with diverse fertilizer types (e.g., NPK-rich or micronutrient formulations) based on growth stages and soil tests.

In Inner Mongolia’s potato farming, scientific use of foliar fertilizer enhances productivity and quality. By selecting appropriate products, optimizing dilution, timing, and application techniques, prioritizing safety, monitoring crop health, maintaining regular schedules, and integrating with other fertilization strategies, farmers can maximize the benefits of foliar nutrition.
