Coffee growing seedlings

1, the choice of nursery land close to the water source, convenient transportation, loose fertile soil, deep soil layer, good drainage loam or sandy loam, PH 6 - 6.5 paddy field or early nursery land, and close to the coffee garden. Turn the ground 0.20 - 0. 30 meters, ridge width 1.0 - 1. 2 meters, about 10 meters long, and apply decomposed farm manure on the soil moisture, 3000 kg per mu, mix the soil and fertilizer evenly as nutrient soil for bagging, nutrient bag specification is 0.15× 0.20 meters, put nutrient soil into bags, 12 bags in each row are neatly placed, upright, 60 - 70,000 plants can be placed per mu, shade branches are planted according to the pile spacing of 4 meters, height 2. 0 meters shade density 75 - 85%, surrounded by fences to protect shade, nursery will be built.

2, germination bed finishing and sowing will have been hoe fine, fertilizer nursery by spacing 0. 50 meters, width 1. 20 meters, height 0.15 - 0. 20m ridge soil spreading, soil disinfection with carbendazim, adding 0.05 - 0.10m thick river sand can be, Fu dam planting 7963 new varieties, about 5000 seeds per kilogram, soaking in warm water at 40 - 45℃ for 2 - 3 minutes, then soaking in clean water for 24 hours, taking out seeds evenly sown on the sand bed, to avoid accumulation is appropriate, sowing rate is 0.50 - 0.60kg/square meter, pressing into the sand with wood, Covers 0.01 - 0. 02 meters of river sand, then covered with straw on the surface, poured through water. 80 days after sowing, the seeds will be unearthed. Water regularly before they are unearthed to prevent drought. Remove the weeds in time after the seedlings are unearthed.

Coffee, as an elegant, fashionable and high-grade beverage, has long been popular all over the world, and has been listed as the first of the world's three major beverages (coffee, tea and cocoa). Coffee cultivation has also spread to 76 countries and regions all over the world. In 1983-1984 alone, the world's coffee production reached 5.5 million tons, and the export volume was 4.2 million tons. Among them, Brazil, known as the "Coffee Kingdom", has the largest output and export volume. However, the hometown of coffee is not Brazil, but Ethiopia in Africa. Up to now, there are large wild coffee forests in the dense jungle of Kafa Province in the southwest of the country. The word "coffee" comes from the place name "Kafa".

Coffee grows mostly in the fertile land between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn, where the fruit ripens. Not all of the land in this area can produce good coffee trees. The ideal planting conditions for coffee trees are: a warm climate with a temperature between 15 ° C and 25 ° C, and rainfall throughout the year must reach 1500 mm to 2000 mm, and its rainfall time should match the flowering cycle of coffee trees. Of course, in addition to seasonal and rainfall coordination, there must be fertile soil. The soil most suitable for coffee cultivation is fertile, well drained soil containing pozzolanic matter. In addition, although sunlight is an indispensable element for coffee growth and fruit, too strong sunlight will ruin the growth of coffee trees, so each producing area usually cooperates with planting some shade trees, generally planting bananas, mangoes and legumes and other tall trees. The ideal altitude is 500 to 2000 meters. Therefore, Jamaica Blue Mountain coffee grown at an altitude of 800 meters to 1200 meters has the best quality. It can be seen from this that the conditions for cultivating high-quality coffee are quite strict: sunlight, rainfall, soil, temperature, and the way coffee beans are harvested and produced will affect the quality of coffee itself.
