The invention discloses a method for
topping Yunyan 87. The method comprises the steps that tobacco
plant transplanting is completed from April 25 to May 5, and classified jointing and
topping are carried out according to different growth vigor (early blossoming, poor growth vigor, general growth vigor, good growth vigor and good growth vigor) of tobacco plants. The method specifically comprises the following steps: in early flowering and
topping, a method of'topping without leaf removal 'is adopted, the
pitch is lengthened by 5cm, 16 leaves are reserved, and the
plant height is controlled to be 80-85cm after topping; the growth vigor is poor, 18 leaves, 20 leaves, 22 leaves and 24 leaves are reserved on common tobacco plants, good tobacco plants and good tobacco plants respectively, and the
plant heights are controlled to be 90-95 cm, 100-105 cm, 110-115 cm and 120-125 cm. Tests prove that the method remarkably improves the
tobacco leaf yield and
economic benefits, the average output value per mu and the first-class tobacco proportion are greatly improved, and the method is superior to a traditional topping method. The method can effectively solve the problems of unreasonable group structure and low tobacco yield and quality in the low-
latitude and high-altitude tobacco area.
