Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of citrus orchards, and in particular relates to a soil water retention device for citrus orchards. Background Technology

[0002] Citrus cultivation is widespread throughout the world, with China being one of its important places of origin. In China, it is mainly distributed in provinces such as Gansu, Jiangsu, and Hainan. It is widely cultivated, with very few semi-wild varieties. Citrus fruits mostly grow along river and lake banks, or in plains, hills, and low mountains. They prefer warm and humid subtropical climates, are not cold-hardy, and are somewhat shade-tolerant. They grow well in sandy loam soil with ample sunlight, deep soil layers, and good aeration.

[0003] Currently, most citrus cultivation uses flood irrigation. However, in order to ensure the branches and leaves of citrus trees can spread out, it is usually necessary to maintain a certain distance between adjacent citrus trees when planting. If flood irrigation is used, it will easily waste water resources, have low irrigation efficiency, and cannot guarantee that the soil of each citrus tree can be irrigated with sufficient water. In addition, this method cannot replenish water according to the soil moisture, which can easily lead to water shortage in citrus trees and cause poor growth. Utility Model Content
