Changshui Village Farming Notes

Chapter 382 Drip Irrigation
The master took them to visit the production workshop first, and then told her carefully about the materials of the equipment and the technology used.

After strolling around for a while, what Gu Kuangyun was thinking about was still the product display field at the entrance of the factory.

She knew a little about these things, but she had decided to choose this company with five points in her heart, but how much it would cost in the end still depended on which irrigation mode to install.

The staff felt that the smartest decision made by the top management of their company was to set aside the land where another factory could be built at that time and build this display field.

Since the establishment of this display field, few of the customers who came to visit their company did not sign a contract with them in the end, and they were all dazzled by the demonstration field at the door.

The demonstration field at the gate of the factory is not large, but they have divided it into several areas.

Greenhouse vegetable area, fruit tree area, and the most eye-catching three-dimensional planting area.

The vegetables inside were all lush and juicy, and looked well looked after.

The bottom of the three-dimensional planting frame is chrysanthemum chrysanthemum, the middle is strawberry, and the top is lettuce. Each plant can receive the most suitable sunlight and temperature, which not only saves space to the greatest extent, but also looks abnormal. beautiful.

The master saw that Gu Kuangyun was interested in this, so he introduced it. He also picked a few strawberries on the planting rack, rinsed them with water, and handed them to Gu Kuangyun.

"This strawberry is grown by us. The insecticidal technology uses the principle of optics and no pesticides are used, so go ahead and eat it, girl!" After speaking, the master proudly looked at the rows of three-dimensional planting racks in the shed.

Gu Kuangyun didn't pay too much attention, and took a sip of the strawberry.

The strawberries are red from head to tail, and the freshly picked strawberries are the most complete and freshest, with a very good taste.

Not only sweet, but also refreshing with fresh fruit, which relieved Gu Kuangyun's heat for a second.

"This is the latest technology of our company - the three-dimensional planting mode, which is a three-dimensional soilless planting. Under the condition of not affecting the plane planting, it develops into the space through the wall-type and column-shaped planting frames erected around it, making full use of the greenhouse. Space and solar energy to improve land utilization, 90.00% foreign imported technology, temperature, humidity, water, fertilizers, etc. can be automatically adjusted. Now the agricultural university in the provincial capital also cooperates with us, so our company's technology is now in It is one of the best in the province."

Gu Kuangyun couldn't help but marvel in her heart. Although this technology has long been developed in China, this is the first time she has seen a real scene, and she finds it very interesting.

How much more production would be needed if this technique were to be used in her vegetable garden!
However, the cost was too high, this idea flashed through her mind quickly, and then she dismissed it.

No money~ no money~ no money, Gu Kuangyun, please be sober, you are now a person who is in debt of millions, how can you have such an unrealistic idea!

Calm down, let's take a look at the purpose of this visit!

Therefore, Gu Kuangyun tactfully expressed to the master that he wanted to go to the orchard first.

The master agreed wholeheartedly.

Loquats are also planted in the demonstration field. Like the orchard in Changshui Village, the trees are now full of yellow fruits.

The master smiled and looked at the dozen or so loquat trees in the field, "If we hadn't been watching closely all day, the young workers in the factory would have picked them all."

Gu Kuangyun walked around the field and found that there were three different irrigation systems installed in a small area. He was a little confused, so he asked.

The master also remembered his responsibilities now, so he began to introduce to Gu Kuangyun, "Currently, most orchards in China still use flood irrigation and furrow irrigation, which not only consumes a lot of water, but also improves the efficiency of water and fertilizer use. At the same time, it seriously restricts the improvement of the quality of melons and fruits. In response to this situation, our company has improved the irrigation technology and proposed several efficient irrigation and fertilization modes:
The first one is coiled drip fertilization technology.

Compared with conventional flood irrigation, using the coiled drip irrigation and fertilization technology, the irrigation water during the whole growth period of fruit trees is reduced by 140 square meters per mu, water is saved by 58.7%, the horizontal and vertical diameters of fruits are increased by 5.4%~7.0%, and the water use efficiency reaches 9.6kg/mu. Cubic meters, saving 1316 yuan per mu.

具体方法是：在距果树树干80~100cm处铺设一条PE环形滴灌管，管上带有4~6个滴头，滴头流量4.2/小时，每次滴灌20~30方/亩；通过文丘里施肥器和滴灌专用肥实现水肥一体化，肥料用量仅为常规用量的40%左右；配套枝条粉碎覆盖和人工生草覆盖等技术措施来提升果园土壤肥力和景观效果。

The second is the small tube outflow technique.

Compared with conventional flood irrigation, the use of small tube outflow technology can reduce irrigation water by 119 cubic meters per mu during the whole growth period of fruit trees, saving water by 50.1%, and water use efficiency is 8.8kg per cubic meter, an increase of 2.3kg per cubic meter; cost savings per mu Income increased by 1197 yuan.

The main features of this technical model are: lay a branch pipe along the planting direction of fruit trees, drill holes on the branch pipe, install a dripper with a water volume of about 20-30L, connect the capillary tube on the dripper, and put the capillary tube at the root of the tree , Install a Venturi fertilizer applicator in the first part, apply the integrated water and fertilizer technology, irrigate 20-30 square meters/mu each time, and the amount of fertilizer is about 40% of the conventional amount.

The third type is film-laying furrow irrigation technology.

The film-laying furrow irrigation technology needs to open an irrigation ditch outside the projection of the fruit tree canopy. The depth and width of the ditch are about 30 cm; The amount of secondary irrigation is 1.5% to 2.0% of conventional irrigation. Alternate furrow irrigation can also be used in orchards where conditions permit; legumes are planted between rows of fruit trees to improve the landscape effect of the orchard. "

The data I mentioned will also be adjusted differently in specific environments. The land in the factory is not large, so the things installed here are all scaled down.

The three different irrigation modes use different methods and tools, so the prices are also different. "

After talking for a long time, the master finally talked about the most critical point.

"However, which system is suitable for your orchard to be installed, we still need our masters to see it in person to decide. Adapting measures to local conditions has always been one of our company's guidelines." The staff next to him added another sentence.

Gu Kuangyun nodded, and she had already decided in her heart to find this company to install the drip irrigation system, but since everyone said so, she had to wait for their company to send someone to look at it.

"Then I will trouble you to send someone to my hometown to have a look. By the way, give me another quotation from your company!"

The staff quickly agreed, "Don't worry, this is for sure. We attach great importance to your business and will definitely give you the best solution."
