What fruit trees are suitable for intercropping
Today, the editor will explain what fruit trees are suitable for intercropping and the best recommended green plant flower planting, the specific details are as follows:
There are many precautions in fruit tree planting. Some trees should not appear around the orchard, as they often cause trouble. Some fruit farmers use the mixed planting method to increase their income, but if they do not understand the details, they may suffer heavy losses.
I have summarized the trees that cause great harm to the orchard. If you are interested, you can collect it or follow Xiaoma agricultural.
(1) Avoid planting pine trees next to pear orchards
Planting pine trees is forbidden because the pine spores on the new shoots and branches of pine trees can float to the orchard with the wind in spring and summer, causing serious harm to fruit trees, especially pear trees. It can cause yellow spots on the leaves and fruits of pear trees, make the fruits grow thorns, and severely reduce the yield and quality of the fruits. Therefore, various pine trees should not be planted around orchards with pear trees.
(2) Avoid planting cypress trees next to grape orchards
Avoid planting cypress trees because cypress and grapes are also incompatible. If cypress trees are planted near grapes, the grape fruits will not ripen easily. Therefore, various cypress trees should not be planted near orchards with grapes. Cypress trees, especially juniper and dragon cypress, are the overwintering places of the main disease-causing bacteria of grape trees - pear rust bacteria. When it gets warm in spring, these bacteria will be blown to the grape trees by the wind to continue to reproduce, harming the growth of grape trees.
(3) Avoid planting elm trees next to citrus orchards
Because elm trees are the favorite food of the citrus nemesis - starry sky牛 and brown sky牛. If elm trees are planted, the sky牛 will multiply in large numbers, seriously harming the growth of citrus.
(4) Avoid planting locust trees in apple, peach, and other orchards
First, locust trees are very likely to attract stink bugs, which can harm peach, plum, pear, and apple trees.
Second, the tannic acid secreted by locust trees can greatly inhibit the fruiting of many fruit trees, especially pear and apple trees.
Third, the leaf blight bacteria on locust trees can cause a large number of leaves to fall from pear, apple, and other fruit trees. At the same time, locust trees are also the overwintering places for the blight bacteria mycelium. Therefore, locust trees should not be planted around orchards with peach, pear, plum, and apple trees.
What fruit trees are suitable for intercropping
Also, planting paulownia trees near the orchard can make many fruit trees prone to purple pattern disease, which can cause the leaves of the affected fruit trees to turn yellow, wither, and even the whole plant can die. Moreover, paulownia trees are also the overwintering places for the purple pattern disease bacteria.
Let's talk about the types of fruit trees that are not suitable for intercropping.
(1) Mulberry trees should not be mixed with cherry, peach, or plum trees
Mulberry trees should not be planted near stone fruit trees such as peach, plum, apricot, and cherry because the main pests on mulberry trees - mulberry white scale insects can spread to fruit trees, living on the branches of fruit trees and causing harm. The lighter ones cause poor branch development, while the heavier ones cause dead branches and even the death of the entire plant.
(2) Apple trees and pear trees should not be mixed
Because pear trees are the toxic寄生处 of apple rust disease, which can cause apple trees to get sick, pear trees and apple trees cannot be mixed and should not be too close to each other.
(3) Peach trees should not be mixed with pear or apple trees
Because peach trees usually ripen earlier than pear and apple trees, the first generation of larvae of pests such as peach fruit borer, pear fruit fly, and peach borer eat peaches, while the second generation eats pears and apples. If these fruit trees are mixed, it will provide a rich and continuous food source for the pests, making the harm more severe, so peach trees should not be mixed with pear and apple trees.
(4) Apple trees and cherry trees should not be mixed
Apple trees and cherry trees are incompatible and inhibit each other when mixed.
The above is a specific introduction to what fruit trees are suitable for intercropping and the best recommended fruit tree planting combinations. I hope you will like it!
