What kind of soil is better for planting yams

Fertile and loose soil with good water and fertilizer retention is better for planting yams. The fruit of yam is underground, so fertile soil with good water and fertilizer retention can provide rich nutrition for yam. In fact, their requirements for soil are not particularly high. They can also be cultivated with general soil on soil slope or flat ground. But the better the soil, the bigger the underground tuber of yam, so that the higher the yield and the better the quality of yam. 1、 What kind of soil is better for planting yams? Fertile soil with good water and fertilizer retention should be used for planting yams. Fertile soil can provide a good soil environment for yam, and the nutrients contained in the soil are also conducive to the growth and development of plants. Loose soil has small viscosity, many voids and strong ventilation. Yam needs to expand a lot in the process of growth, and the loose soil has less resistance.

As we all know, water is indispensable to plants. The yam will wither if the water is insufficient. The soil with water retention and good drainage capacity is the most suitable for the growth of yam. If the soil fertility is poor, the fertilizer applied to the soil will volatilize in the later stage, which is not conducive to the growth of yam. Yam has a large demand for fertilizer, so the soil should have the ability to keep fertilizer. 2、 How to apply fertilizer for planting yam 1. Apply base fertilizer: the fertilizer for planting yam medicine is mainly base fertilizer, which is mainly organic fertilizer or fully decomposed farm fertilizer. 3000 kg of farm fertilizer is used per mu with about 70 kg of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium compound fertilizer per mu. Spread the base fertilizer evenly in the field for deep tillage and land preparation to fully mix the fertilizer with the soil, and then cover the mixture with the soil.

2. Topdressing: when yam grows, it is necessary to apply fecal water to provide nutrition, supplement and regulate nutrition for yam, and supplement insufficient base fertilizer to meet the demand for nutrients in the later stage of yam. (ChongShanYaoYongShenMeTuBiJiaoHao)
