What fertilizer to use for orange trees

The fruit produced by the orange tree is one of the most popular fruits. During the growth process of the orange tree, the application of fertilizer plays a vital role in the fruit yield and quality of the orange tree.

Fertilizer for orange trees

1. When fertilizing orange trees, organic fertilizer is a must, as it is a guarantee of product quality, especially in some orange orchards that are reclaimed from paddy fields. If organic fertilizer is not applied, root problems will soon occur, thus affecting the normal growth of the orange trees. Compound fertilizers can also be applied. Generally speaking, high-nitrogen compound fertilizers can be applied when the trees are young to enable the orange trees to grow better.

2. You can apply water-soluble fertilizer, which is flexible, efficient and can replenish the trace elements needed by citrus in real time. In addition, after the orange tree has finished flowering, you can apply nitrogen fertilizer to it appropriately, which can promote fruit development. After the fruit grows up, it is best to apply compound fertilizer to it, which is more conducive to the growth of the fruit.

Orange tree fertilization method

The method of fertilizing orange trees is relatively simple. It mainly relies on soil fertilization, combined with foliar fertilization, and adopts methods such as ring ditch fertilization, strip ditch fertilization, hole fertilization and surface spreading. It should fully meet the needs of orange trees for various nutrients. It is recommended to apply more organic fertilizers, and reasonably apply inorganic fertilizers and formula fertilizers.
