The invention discloses a method for improving
soil fertility of an
orchard in a Yellow River old lane area. The
orchard is covered with green grass; after the fruits are harvested and before leaves fall, a first fertilization
ditch is dug at a crown water drip, and smashed
straw, base
fertilizer and surface soil are sequentially laid in the first fertilization
ditch from bottom to top; meanwhile, digging 3-4 radial second fertilization ditches according to a water drip from a
trunk to a crown, sequentially laying dry branches and fallen leaves, wheat straws and
livestock and
poultry manure in the second fertilization ditches from bottom to top, and putting earthworms into surface straws of the second fertilization ditches; a
humic acid-containing water-soluble
fertilizer is applied in a
drip irrigation manner during topdressing. Therefore, through the synergistic effect of multiple technical measures such as
orchard grass covering,
organic fertilizer layer application,
earthworm density increasing and bio-
fertilizer application increasing, a benign soil ecological
system is constructed, and therefore the problems that the content of
organic matter in orchard soil in the Yellow River old road area is low, and the water and fertilizer
retention capacity is weak are effectively solved, the
soil fertility is remarkably improved, and the yield of the orchard is increased. And the fruit yield and quality are improved.
