This Video is about types of fertilizer apply for mature tea plantation.
Mature tea plants have specific needs different from their younger counterparts. They require a balanced fertilizer blend that promotes sustained growth, high-quality leaves, and resistance to stress. Here's a breakdown of mature tea fertilizer:
Key Nutrients:
Nitrogen (N): Crucial for healthy leaf growth and yield, but excess can lead to leggy plants and reduced quality.
Phosphorus (P): Encourages root development and improves stress tolerance.
Potassium (K): Boosts disease resistance and enhances flavor and aroma.
Magnesium (Mg): Essential for chlorophyll production and photosynthesis.
Sulfur (S): Plays a role in protein synthesis and enzyme activity.
Zinc (Zn): Required for bud development and overall plant health.
Types of Mature Tea Fertilizer:
Compound fertilizers: Pre-mixed blends containing NPK, often supplemented with Mg, S, and Zn.
Custom blends: Tailored to specific soil and plant needs based on testing.
Organic fertilizers: Compost, manure, and other natural materials provide sustained nutrient release.
Application methods:
Basal application: Fertilizer spread around the base of the plant and incorporated into the soil.
Foliar application: Nutrients sprayed directly onto leaves for faster uptake.
Important factors to consider:
Soil test results: Identify any nutrient deficiencies or imbalances.
Tea variety and growing conditions: Different varieties have varying needs.
Climate and rainfall patterns: Adjust application based on weather factors.
Sustainability practices: Choose organic options or minimize fertilizer use.
Benefits of using mature tea fertilizer:
Increased yield and quality of tea leaves.
Improved plant health and resistance to stress.
Enhanced flavor and aroma of the final product.
Sustainable soil management practices.
