Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of agricultural technology, specifically to a peanut cultivation method suitable for acidic soils. Background Technology

[0002] Peanuts are an important oilseed and cash crop in my country, widely cultivated, especially in the hilly, plain, and mountainous areas of southern China. Peanut growth is sensitive to soil pH, thriving in slightly acidic to neutral soils with a pH of 5.5-6.5. However, due to long-term cultivation, rainfall leaching, and fertilization practices, soil acidification is a significant problem in many parts of southern my country, with a large amount of arable land having a pH below 5.0, classifying it as strongly acidic soil. To meet the needs of peanut cultivation, current techniques often involve applying lime to adjust soil acidity, while simultaneously incorporating organic fertilizer to enhance soil fertility. These efforts aim to create a suitable growing environment for peanuts, ensuring normal germination, root development, and nutrient absorption, thereby maintaining a certain yield level.

[0003] However, in existing peanut cultivation in acidic soils, many growers often apply large amounts of lime at once to simplify the process. This results in the lime not being fully mixed with the soil, causing local soil pH to spike beyond the suitable range for peanuts, while some deeper soil layers remain strongly acidic, leading to poor soil improvement uniformity. Furthermore, there is a lack of long-term monitoring and dynamic replenishment mechanisms for soil pH after lime application. As the peanut growth cycle progresses, rainwater leaching and nutrient consumption occur, soil acidity can quickly rebound to levels unsuitable for peanut growth. This not only affects subsequent peanut plantings but also necessitates frequent lime additions, increasing planting costs. In addition, excessive lime application at once can damage soil aggregate structure, reduce soil permeability and water retention, and inhibit peanut root penetration and respiration, thus affecting the overall growth of peanuts. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a peanut cultivation method suitable for acidic soils, solving the problems of uneven soil improvement, short-term acidification rebound, and soil compaction caused by excessive application of lime in a single application without subsequent pH monitoring and replenishment in existing technologies.

[0017] Preferably, in step S4, if a controlled-release fertilizer is selected, the controlled-release fertilizer is a humic acid-coated fertilizer, the inner layer of which is a composite film of humic acid and micronutrients, and the outer layer is a biodegradable polymer film.

[0018] Preferably, in step S5, the amount of topdressing includes: 9-11 kg / mu of urea and 4-6 kg / mu of potassium nitrate, with an irrigation volume of 40-60 m³ / mu.3 .

[0019] Preferably, in step S6, the plant growth regulator is brassinolide or calcium cyclohexane.

[0020] The micronutrient fertilizer should be diluted 300-800 times according to the instructions and sprayed once a week for 2-3 consecutive weeks.

[0024] 1. This invention employs a soil pretreatment technology scheme that combines batch application of lime, synergistic incorporation of organic fertilizer, and regular soil pH monitoring and lime replenishment. This achieves the technical effect of maintaining soil acidity within the suitable range for peanut growth, preventing soil compaction, and ensuring long-term and sustainable improvement. Compared with existing technologies that involve excessive application of lime at one time and lack subsequent pH monitoring and replenishment, this invention solves the shortcomings of uneven soil improvement, short-term acidification rebound, and easy soil compaction.

[0025] 2. The present invention adopts a fertilizer adaptation technology solution that uses alkaline or neutral fertilizers to replace acidic fertilizers, which achieves the technical effect of avoiding secondary soil acidification from the source and improving the availability of key nutrients such as phosphorus and calcium in the soil. Compared with the existing technology that uses acidic fertilizers for planting in acidic soils, this invention solves the shortcomings of aggravating soil acidification, causing nutrients to be fixed and difficult to absorb, and affecting the development of peanut pods.

[0026] 3. This invention adopts a nutrient management technology solution of phased water and fertilizer regulation and targeted supply of key nutrients during the growth period. It achieves the technical effect of accurately matching nutrient supply with the needs of peanuts at different growth stages, ensuring the robust growth of plants and the high-quality development of pods.

[0097] Table 1. Peanut agronomic traits under different treatments

[0098]

[0099] Combining Examples 1-4 and Comparative Examples 1-4, and considering the differences in peanut agronomic traits under different treatments, it can be seen that the key influencing factors in this invention, such as soil pretreatment, phased water and fertilizer management, key nutrient supply during the growth period, and fertilizer type suitability, have a significant impact on the yield, empty shell rate, seedling emergence rate, and water and fertilizer costs of peanuts planted on a large scale in acidic soil. Moreover, there is a good synergistic effect of improvement, supply, and maintenance among these factors. Comparative Example 1, due to the traditional acidic soil planting method of deep tilling and burying lime in one go without multiple applications and scientific soil pretreatment logic, had a poor seed germination environment with a soil pH of only 4.7 at 10cm depth, and limited root penetration to less than 15cm. This resulted in an imbalance between plant growth and demand, requiring additional fertilization later, and a yield of only 190kg. Example 2 yielded 320kg with a fruit filling rate of 72%, compared to 88% in Example 2, while water and fertilizer costs were 12% higher than in Example 2. Comparative Example 2, lacking a suitable fertilizer type, used superphosphate instead of calcium magnesium phosphate. The acidic fertilizer exacerbated secondary soil acidification, causing the pH to drop to 4.3 in the later stages of cultivation. This increased the risk of fertilizer damage to the seed stalks and insufficient phosphorus and calcium absorption, leading to a fruit filling rate of only 70% and a 100-fruit weight of only 148g, compared to 175g in Example 2. Comparative Example 3... The lack of regular soil pH monitoring and lime replenishment steps resulted in the inability to maintain the soil improvement effect in the long term. In the second year, the soil pH dropped to 4.4 and the activated aluminum ion content was 210 mg / kg, which inhibited plant growth in the long term. The yield in the second year was only 200 kg, compared to 310 kg in Example 2. In Comparative Example 4, the lack of a scientific application process for micronutrient fertilizer during the pegging stage and the direct spraying without dilution resulted in a leaf burn rate of 45% and a sharp drop in nutrient absorption efficiency, leading to only 10 effective pods per plant. In Example 2, there were 18 pods, a yield of 210 kg, and a pod filling rate of 73%, compared to 88% in Example 3. In contrast, Examples 1-4, including Example 4, achieved a synergistic improvement in yield, pod filling rate, 100-pod weight, and cost rationality by optimizing the parameters of the entire process and coordinating the adaptation of key steps.

[0100] In the examples, the yield of peanuts grown on a large scale in acidic soil was between 280-315 kg, the pod filling rate was between 80%-88%, the 100-pod weight was between 160-175 g, the emergence rate was between 88%-93%, and the water and fertilizer cost was between 280-350 yuan / mu. All of these were significantly better than the comparative example, which had a yield of 190-210 kg, a pod filling rate of 70%-73%, a 100-pod weight of 148-152 g, an emergence rate of 75%-85%, and a water and fertilizer cost of 360-400 yuan / mu. Example 2 showed the best performance, with a yield of 320 kg, a pod filling rate of 88%, a 100-pod weight of 175 g, an emergence rate of 92%, and a water and fertilizer cost of 350 yuan / mu, demonstrating outstanding short-term high yield and long-term stability. Example 4, although adjusted for acidic soil with a deep tillage of 19 cm, 680 kg / mu of sheep manure, and 45 m³ of irrigation, also showed superior performance. 3 / mu, which is the optimal value in non-plain areas, but still achieves a yield of 300kg, a fruit filling rate of 84%, and a 100-fruit weight of 168g.

[0101] In Examples 1-4, S1 soil testing, S2 lime pretreatment and organic fertilizer incorporation, and S4 alkaline fertilizer application were matched together. In Example 2, for strongly acidic soil with pH=4.5, 225 kg / mu of slaked lime was applied twice with a one-month interval, and 650 kg / mu of decomposed chicken manure was incorporated. Combined with 18 cm deep plowing to ensure that the lime was evenly mixed with the soil layer, the pH stabilized at 5.8 after improvement. Then, 30 kg / mu of calcium magnesium phosphate fertilizer was selected to replace superphosphate, providing a suitable soil environment and alkaline fertilizer supply for the plants. The yield of 320 kg, fruit fullness rate of 88%, and 175 g per 100 fruits benefited from this. Although the amount of sheep manure used in the seed stem treatment of Example 4 was 680 kg / mu and the deep plowing of 19 cm was not the optimal value, the yield of 300 kg and fruit fullness rate of 84% were still achieved because the synergistic logic of soil pretreatment and fertilizer type was continued. This proves that flexible combination under unified synergistic standards can still ensure high yield. Meanwhile, in Example S4, the application of basal fertilizer and the topdressing during the growth period in Example S5 were regulated according to the patterns of fertility reserves before peanut sowing, nutrient transition during the seedling stage, reproductive growth during the pegging stage, and pod development during the pod-filling stage. In Example 2, basal fertilizer was applied at 1000 kg / mu of chicken manure, 150 kg / mu of lime, and 20 kg / mu of urea to match the soil fertility requirements before sowing. Topdressing was applied at 35 days after seedling stage at 10 kg / mu of urea and 5 kg / mu of potassium nitrate to adapt to the transition from vegetative growth to reproductive growth. During the pegging stage, boron, zinc, molybdenum, and iron micronutrient fertilizer was sprayed at a 550-fold dilution, and during the pod-filling stage, 12% calcium and magnesium fertilizer was sprayed to avoid excessive plant growth or insufficient nutrients leading to a decrease in the pod-filling rate. In contrast, Comparative Example 3 lacked the long-term logic of phased water and fertilizer regulation and did not have pH monitoring or lime supplementation. In the second year, the soil nutrients were unbalanced and aluminum ion poisoning occurred, resulting in a yield of only 200 kg and a pod-filling rate of 71%, which were 35.5% and 19.3% lower than those in Example 2, respectively. This directly reflects the necessity of synergistic management of phased water and fertilizer and long-term management. In Example 2, nutrient application during the pegging stage (S6) and the pod-filling stage (S7) was adapted to the absorption characteristics of peanut leaves and the development needs of pods. In Example 2, micronutrient fertilizer was diluted 550 times and medium fertilizer 350 times in stages to avoid burning the leaves with high-concentration fertilizer and ensure that the nutrient absorption efficiency reached more than 65%, with a disease and pest incidence rate of only 3.2%. In contrast, in Comparative Example 4, micronutrient fertilizer was sprayed directly without dilution during the pegging stage, resulting in a leaf burn rate of 45%, an absorption efficiency of 18%, 10 effective pods per plant, and a pod-filling rate of 73%, which were 44.4% and 17.0% lower than in Example 2, respectively. Although the disease and pest incidence rate of 5.8% was lower than that of the traditional method, the quality and yield benefits were significantly reduced. In addition, soil pH monitoring and lime supplementation in Example S3 were based on the lime pretreatment standard in Example S2. In Example 2, the soil pH was measured to be 4.8 in the second year after cultivation, which dropped to <5.0. 112.5 kg / mu of slaked lime, which is 50% of the total lime used in S2, was added and 650 kg / mu of decomposed pig manure was simultaneously turned over and buried. The yield in the second year was still 310 kg and the fruit filling rate was 85%. However, in Comparative Example 3, soil pH monitoring and lime supplementation were not carried out during the perennial season. In the second year, the soil pH was 4.4, the leaf yellowing rate was 35%, and the yield was only 200 kg, which was 35.5% lower than that of Example 2.

[0102] Comparative Example 1, due to the traditional planting method of applying lime only once, had a seed germination rate of only 75%, while Example 2 had a germination rate of 92%. The acidic soil improvement was incomplete, resulting in a yield of only 190 kg and a fruit fullness rate of 72%, representing decreases of 40.6% and 18.2% respectively compared to Example 2. Comparative Example 2, lacking a suitable fertilizer type—superphosphate instead of calcium magnesium phosphate—had a high risk of fertilizer damage to the seed stalks and insufficient phosphorus and calcium absorption, resulting in a fruit fullness rate of 70% and a 100-fruit weight of 148 g, representing decreases of 20.5% and 15.4% respectively compared to Example 2. %; Comparative Example 3, due to the lack of regular soil pH monitoring and lime supplementation, experienced increased soil acidification and inhibited plant growth in the second year, with a yield of 200 kg and a leaf yellowing rate of 35%, representing a decrease of 37.5% and 600% respectively compared to Example 2; Comparative Example 4, due to the lack of a scientific dilution process for micronutrient fertilizer during the pegging stage, suffered leaf burn and hindered nutrient absorption, with 10 effective pods per plant, a yield of 210 kg, and a pod filling rate of 73%, representing a decrease of 44.4%, 34.4%, and 17.0% respectively compared to Example 2.

[0103] Example 1, due to the use of the lower limits of parameters (200 kg / mu of lime, 900 kg / mu of chicken manure, and 9 kg / mu of urea as topdressing), resulted in weak soil fertility and insufficient nutrient supply during the seedling stage. The yield was 280 kg, the fruit filling rate was 80%, and the 100-fruit weight was 160 g, representing decreases of 12.5%, 9.1%, and 8.6% respectively compared to Example 2. Example 3, due to the use of the upper limits of parameters (250 kg / mu of lime, 1100 kg / mu of chicken manure, and 11 kg / mu of urea as topdressing), achieved an annual yield of 315 kg, a fruit filling rate of 86%, and a 100-fruit weight of 172 g. The cost of Example 4 was similar to that of Example 2, but the high input of water and fertilizer led to a cost of 380 yuan / mu, which was 8.6% higher than that of Example 2. The high-density planting also increased the incidence of pests and diseases to 3.8%, which was 21.6% higher than that of Example 2. The cost-effectiveness of long-term planting for 3 years was slightly lower than that of Example 2. Example 4 had balanced parameters of 225 kg / mu of lime, 680 kg / mu of sheep manure, and 10.2 kg / mu of urea as top dressing, with a cost of 340 yuan / mu, which was 22.9% lower than that of Example 2. The yield was 300 kg, which was only 6.2% lower, and the fruit filling rate was 84%.

[0104] In summary, the key factors in this invention—soil pretreatment (S1-S7), staged water and fertilizer management, key nutrient supply during the growth period, and fertilizer type matching—work synergistically to effectively solve the core problems in peanut cultivation in acidic soils, such as incomplete soil acidification improvement, poor fertilizer-soil compatibility, disconnect between nutrient supply and the growth period, and lack of long-term management. This results in a significant improvement in both short-term yield and long-term quality after large-scale cultivation of peanuts in acidic soils. In particular, Example 2 achieves an optimal balance between high yield of 320 kg / mu, high-quality full pod rate of 88%, 175g weight per 100 pods, and low cost of 350 yuan / mu in large-scale cultivation. Example 4 further verifies the flexible adaptability in acidic soils at high altitudes, such as mountainous areas. Together, these examples demonstrate that the invention is fully adaptable to the needs of intensive cultivation of peanuts in acidic soils on a scale of thousands of mu or more, providing a replicable technical solution for peanut cultivation in strongly acidic soils in different terrains such as hills, plains, and mountains.
