Process for fertilizer application in potato cultivation and dedicated facility

摘要

In a method for fertilizer application in potato cultivation, a fertilizer in liquid, gaseous or solid state is introduced in the area of respective seed tubers to be seeded in potato crops, beds or the like. In the longitudinal direction of rows of potatoes, a structure having one or more lines of fertilizer (s) may be created. The concept according to the invention provides that a fertilizer which can be varied at least in its composition, its quantity, its consistency and / or its spacing relative to the seed tuber is supplied to the near zone of seed tubers in a controllable manner for the specific area. The discharge device provided for this purpose has a metering unit which can be connected to at least two storage containers, so that the fertilizer mixable therein from at least two fertilizers can be transferred into the area of the potato field via a feed system which can be split into it. Here, by means of a computer-aided control unit, a direct discharge of fertilizer (s), a respective mixture of fertilizers and / or a respective quantity metering of the fertilizer discharge taking place in fertilizer lines is set in a specific area-specific manner.
