Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of sloping farmland improvement technology, and in particular to a method for reconstructing newly created paddy fields in sloping farmland improvement. Background Technology
[0002] Sloping farmland is a common type of farmland in hilly and plateau mountainous areas. Due to the complex terrain, steep slopes, fragmented fields, and extremely low levels of mechanized farming in these areas, most farmland is terraced or sloping. To improve the utilization rate of sloping farmland, reduce soil erosion, develop agriculture in hilly areas, and ensure food security, my country has carried out a large number of slope-to-terrace conversion projects.
[0003] Currently, under the strategic context of food security, there is an urgent need to create new paddy fields on sloping farmland or to convert dry land into paddy fields. However, the conversion of sloping farmland requires the use of large machinery for excavation and reconstruction, which damages the topsoil structure. Many of the converted paddy fields have poor seepage prevention and water retention, making it difficult to meet the needs of rice cultivation. Furthermore, the converted field ridges are exposed soil layers, which are prone to soil erosion and collapse under heavy rainfall. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a method for reconstructing newly created paddy fields in the improvement of sloping farmland. The reconstructed paddy fields have good anti-seepage capabilities, which can slow down the rate of water loss in the paddy fields, which is beneficial to rice planting. In addition, the paddy field ridges are protected to effectively prevent the ridges from collapsing.
[0005] The above-mentioned technical objective of the present invention is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0006] A method for reconstructing newly created paddy fields in the consolidation of sloping farmland includes the following steps:
[0007] S1. First, peel off 10-20cm of topsoil and keep it for use as backfill soil for cultivation. Terraces are distributed in a stepped manner at the excavation site of sloping farmland.
[0008] S2. Repair the field ridges to make them slopes of 50-60 degrees;
[0009] S3. Excavate terraces downwards to a depth of 50-60cm;
[0010] S4. The terraced fields are filled with an impermeable layer, a clay layer and an organic soil layer distributed from bottom to top, wherein the organic soil layer is formed by backfilling with the cultivated backfill soil.
[0011] S5. Spray slope protection mud mixed with grass seeds onto the field ridges to form a 2-3cm slope protection layer;
[0012] S6. A water storage ditch is built on one side of each terrace. The water storage ditch is distributed in a stepped manner from top to bottom. Each water storage ditch is divided into a water catchment area at the rear and a clear water area at the front by a partition. The height of the partition is not higher than the depth of the water storage ditch. Each water catchment area has an inlet above the organic soil layer on the side closest to the terrace. Each water catchment area is equipped with a filter screen near the corresponding inlet. Each filter screen has an adsorption frame at the lower end. Activated carbon or zeolite is placed inside each adsorption frame. An overflow outlet is opened downward at the upper front of each clear water area.
[0013] S7. Drainage pipes are installed in the clay layer of each terrace. Multiple seepage holes are opened on the outer periphery of the upper part of each drainage pipe. Each drainage pipe is wrapped with geotextile. A water storage tank is built below the sloping farmland. A drainage ditch is set on one side of the terrace along its slope direction and its lower end is connected to the water storage tank. One end of each drainage pipe is connected to the drainage ditch.
[0014] A further feature of the present invention is that the impermeable layer is a mixture of wood fiber and native soil, wherein the content of wood fiber in the impermeable layer is 0.5%-5%.
[0015] A further feature of the present invention is that the thickness of the impermeable layer is 5-8cm, the thickness of the clay layer is 10-15cm, and the thickness of the organic soil layer is 20-30cm.
[0016] A further provision of the present invention is that the components and mass ratio of the slope protection slurry are: 20-25% fine loam, 10-15% dried organic compost, 5-10% clay, 1-1.5% compound fertilizer, 0.1% water-retaining agent, 10-15% grass seeds, and the remainder is water.
[0017] A further feature of the present invention is that a root-preventing membrane is arranged in the soil layers on both the upper and lower sides of each field ridge, with the root-preventing membrane having a depth of 20-30cm.
[0018] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0019] Firstly, the present invention backfills the bottom of the terraced fields with an impermeable layer and a clay layer. The impermeable layer formed by mixing wood fiber with red soil has water repellency, giving it good impermeability. Combined with the clay layer, it can effectively prevent water from seeping downwards and prevent the water in the paddy field from flowing out quickly, making the paddy field suitable for rice cultivation.
[0020] Secondly, this invention uses a spraying method to spray slope protection mud mixed with grass seeds onto the field ridges, allowing the grass seeds to take root and germinate on the field ridges. After the grass roots extend into the field ridges, the slope becomes more stable and less prone to soil erosion due to heavy rainfall, effectively preventing the field ridges from being damaged.
[0021] Thirdly, this invention arranges a layer of root-resistant film on both the upper and lower sides of the slope protection layer on the field ridge to prevent the roots of grass from extending into the terraces during the rapid growth of grass, which would cause a large number of weeds to grow in the terraces.
[0022] Fourth, the present invention constructs a water storage ditch on one side of the terraced field, which can be used for both drainage and water storage. Excess water in the terraced field can be directly discharged into the water storage ditch. When the water storage ditch is full, it will automatically flow from the overflow outlet to the next water storage ditch. In the event of a dry period, water can be drawn from the water storage ditch to replenish the terraced field for rice growth.
[0023] Fifth, the water storage ditch is equipped with a filter screen to filter out debris flowing from the terraced fields. Activated carbon or zeolite is also installed in the ditch to adsorb and filter nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus in the terraced field water, remove chemical fertilizers and pesticides from the water, and reduce the risk of agricultural non-point source pollution of water bodies caused by the use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides. Finally, the water overflows into the clear water area after settling in the catchment area of the water storage ditch, further purifying the remaining water.
[0024] Sixth, during the rainy season, when rainfall is abundant, the water content in the terraced fields is easily too high. The water in the terraced fields can seep into the internal drainage pipes and eventually flow into the reservoir for storage. During the dry season, water can be drawn from the reservoir for irrigation, realizing the recycling of water resources on the slope. Attached Figure Description
