What is loosening the soil and turning the soil?

It uses manpower to loosen and turn over the soil for planting.

In the process of planting orchards, there is a very tiring job, that is, turning over the soil. Many people, including me, are unwilling to do this job, and the effect is not obvious, but they have to do it. I still hope that technology can develop rapidly and develop more convenient tools to replace labor.

Turning over the soil is of great significance to the orchard.

The first benefit is loosening the soil. After a long time of pressing, the soil surface becomes very hard, which will affect the absorption of oxygen by the roots, so it is best to loosen the soil once a year.

Loosening the soil is conducive to the re-growth and development of the root system, which can make the root system grow normally. In the process of turning the soil, we choose to turn the soil in autumn. At this time, we can also complete fertilization, fertilization and turning the soil together. In the process of digging, it is inevitable that some roots will break, which is normal, and some roots are not bad, but good.

Some fruit trees with rootstocks, such as courtyards, have too thick roots, which leads to vigorous growth, flourishing leaves and late fruiting. Rooting can lead to early fruiting and increase yield.

There are generally two ways to turn over the soil. One way is to turn over the soil mechanically. A small gasoline engine drives the turnover machine, saving time and effort. Moreover, the digging speed is relatively fast and the price is not very high. You can buy a similar machine for more than 2000 points, but there is one disadvantage. It is inconvenient to pull the fruit trees, especially near the trunk, which is a little out of reach.
