Abstract

To solve the low use effencicy of fertilizer in the orchards of Taihang Mountain area,the field experiment was conducted with 5-years-old apricot sol aureus trees,designed to have three different fertilizing methods(fertigation,deep-ditch fertilization and no fertilization).The effects of these treatments on the soil nutrients,leaf and fruit nutrient concentration,yield and quality of apricot were evaluated.The results obtained were as follows: fertilization could increase the soil nutrient concentration within 100 cm in depth and the total nitrogen and phosphorus and potassium concentration of leaf and fruit;compared with deep-ditch fertilization,fertigation treatment had higher soil nutrient concentration;compared with non-fertilization and deep-ditch fertilization,fertigation treatment could increase the leaf total nitrogen concentration by 9.1% and 0.6%,respectively.The total sugar contents increased under fertigation and deep-ditch fertilization by 16.36% and 11.47%.The yield per plant increased under fertigation and deep-ditch fertilization by 34.75% and 34.48%.Fertigation method resulted in the highest soil nutrient,leaf and fruit nutrient,total sugar and yield.Therefore,fertigation is the optimum fertilizing method for apricot tree.
