The Light - Simplified Fertilization Model for Yishizhuang Corn Launched in Inner Mongolia

At the foot of the majestic Yinshan Mountains lies Baotou City in Inner Mongolia, a city where farming civilization and nomadic civilization blend. There are extensive planting areas for food and cash crops such as wheat, corn, potatoes, sunflowers, and vegetables.

After years of on - the - spot investigation and exploration, Hubei Yishizhuang Agricultural Technology Co., Ltd. has joined forces with the Baotou City Agricultural Technology Extension Center in Inner Mongolia. Special formula fertilizers have been developed specifically for the planting characteristics of local crops such as corn, vegetables, potatoes, and sunflowers, and small - scale experiments and large - scale demonstrations for many consecutive years have been carried out. The effects have been unanimously recognized by growers. 

In the autumn of 2020, the corn in the planting base of Baotou Xianglifeng Agricultural Development Co., Ltd. in the demonstration area was about to be harvested again. The Baotou City Agricultural Technology Extension Center in Inner Mongolia organized local planting cooperatives and large - scale growers to visit the site to see the effects. It is understood that in the demonstration fields of the base, not only Yishizhuang's slow - release and controlled - release special fertilizer for corn was used, but also key technical demonstrations such as close - planting and high - quality varieties were integrated. A light - simplified cultivation model was carried out throughout the process from planting to management. With the mutual cooperation of key technologies, a major breakthrough has been achieved in the slow - release and controlled - release effects of fertilizers.

General Manager Yang of Baotou Xianglifeng Agricultural Development Co., Ltd. in the demonstration area said that judging from the demonstration in the base, the slow - release and controlled - release fertilizer for corn has indeed achieved the expected results, and summarized several advantages:

First, it has the effect of saving fertilizer and labor. The traditional fertilizers used for local corn planting are diammonium, urea, and potassium fertilizer, and urea needs to be top - dressed later. After applying Yishizhuang's slow - release and controlled - release fertilizer for corn, for close - planted 6,500 - 7,000 plants, 60 kg of base fertilizer is applied per mu at one time; for traditional planting of 4,500 - 5,000 plants, 40 kg of base fertilizer is applied per mu at one time, and no top - dressing is required later. At the harvest time, the corn is still green and there is no fertilizer - deficiency phenomenon.
Second, it has a special formula to supplement medium and trace elements. For corn seeds with a growth period of 126 - 132 days in the northern region, the formula is adjusted to a total nutrient of 40%, with a nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium ratio of 24 - 10 - 6, and medium and trace elements such as magnesium, zinc, boron, and silicon required locally are supplemented, making the nutrients relatively comprehensive.

Third, compared with corn fertilized with traditional methods, the effect is obvious. Compared with corn fertilized with traditional methods, the corn fertilized with the slow - release and controlled - release fertilizer for corn has no bald tips, the corn cobs are larger, and the maturity is better at harvest.

Later, the experts conducted yield measurement on two demonstration fields located in the third community of Yonglian Village, Xingongzhong Town, Wuyuan County (No. 1) and at the home of Yan Xingrui in the fifth branch of Xishanju Farm, Urad Front Banner (No. 2) respectively.

Under the premise of reducing the input of pure nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium nutrients and reducing labor costs, Yishizhuang's slow - release and controlled - release special fertilizer for corn has increased the corn yield and fertilizer utilization efficiency, enhanced the stress resistance of crops, and achieved the goal of reducing fertilizer application and increasing efficiency to varying degrees.
