The field with flat ground and loose and breathable soil layer should be selected for planting taro, and then the taro should be planted in the field, and the spacing between plants should be controlled at 50 cm. After planting, water should be poured in the soil once to soak it thoroughly. If the ambient temperature is too low, straw should be spread on the soil surface to keep warm, so as to prevent taro from being frozen and unable to germinate.

Taro 1 How to plant, soil preparation and fertilization

When planting taro, we should choose a field with open terrain, abundant sunshine and ventilation, turn the field over 30 cm with a hoe to improve the looseness of the soil, then dry it for three days to eliminate pests and weeds in the soil, and sprinkle decomposed farm manure into it after the soil turns white to improve the fertility of the soil.

2. Planting

When planting taro, you should choose taro with moderate head and bud eyes, dig a shallow ditch with a row spacing of 50 cm in the field, put the tail of taro down into the shallow ditch, and then cover it with soil. After planting, water should be poured into the field once to soak all the soil, which is beneficial to the germination of taro.

Step 3 provide nutrition

In the growth process, taro mainly absorbs nutrients from the soil, and has little demand for fertilizers such as chemical fertilizers. In order to increase the yield of taro, it is only necessary to supplement inorganic fertilizers such as compound fertilizer and urea at the tree-growing stage and taro-bearing stage, and fertilization is not necessary at other stages.

Step 4 replenish water

Taro likes humid environment, but when it is in the growth stage, it is afraid of waterlogging. At this time, you can water it once a week to keep the soil slightly wet, while taro in the fruiting stage needs a lot of water. During this period, water should be watered every morning, and the drainage ditch should be dredged at night to discharge excess water.
