The invention discloses a
fertilizer application combination applicable to planting gala apples in mountainous regions, as well as a ground management method. The ground management method comprises the following four steps: (1) confirming the
fertilizer application quantity; (2) confirming
fertilizer application stages and the fertilizer application quantity at each fertilizer application stage; (3) applying a fertilizer by adopting a hole
sowing manner; and (4) strictly controlling the
irrigation quantity. Through the steps, the
solid content of gala apples can achieve 13.8-14.5% (control is at 12.5-13.2%), the content of titratable acid is in general at 0.27-0.33% (control is not less than 0.38%), the acidity is reduced while the
solid content is increased, the
flavor and storage of fruit can be improved, and the degradation of variety can be effectively prevented; by adopting the hole
sowing fertilizer application method instead of deep-groove fertilizer application mode, the fertilizer application quantity can be greatly decreased by more than 50%, the labor for fertilizer application can be reduced, and the planting cost can be effectively lowered; in addition, by adopting
farmyard manure combination, fruit trees are facilitated to take in various needed nutrients during growth; the
irrigation quantity is strictly controlled, so that not only can the
water demand of fruit trees be met, but also water can be saved.
