Boost Rice Yields with Specialized Fertilizers

In the context of modern agriculture, specialized fertilizers are extremely important in production. However, to use specialized fertilizers effectively, farmers need to understand this type of fertilizer thoroughly. All the detailed information is in the article below; we invite you to read and refer to it!

1. Introduction to specialized fertilizers

Specialized fertilizers differ from conventional single or mixed fertilizers. These fertilizers have diverse formulas with balanced nutrient compositions, suitable for a wide range of plant varieties, growth and development stages, and soil types.

Currently, at Viet Nga Fertilizer, we offer a wide variety of specialized fertilizers for rice, jackfruit, fruit trees, vegetables, and more. In this article, we invite farmers to learn more about specialized fertilizers for rice.

2. Characteristics of fertilizers specifically designed for rice

2.1. Role and outstanding advantages

The benefits of specialized fertilizers for rice cultivation have led farmers to trust and use them:

– Ensuring plant growth and development: Similar to conventional fertilizers, specialized fertilizers also play an important role in providing nutrients to plants, helping them grow healthily, increasing yield, and improving the quality of agricultural products.

– Minimizing pest and disease pressure: In addition to the three common macronutrients N, P, and K, micronutrients such as Fe, Bo, Zn, etc., are added to specialized fertilizers to help plants strengthen their resistance to pests, diseases, or adverse weather conditions.

– Avoiding waste and contributing to environmental protection: Because specialized fertilizers have been nutritionally balanced during production, farmers will avoid over-fertilization, minimizing fertilizer loss, saving on fertilizer costs, and protecting the environment.

– Delivering superior yields: Based on practical results from demonstration models, Viet Nga Fertilizer consistently delivers significantly higher yields compared to control plots. Farmer Nguyen Van Loi in Thap Muoi, Dong Thap achieved 1,200 kg/hectare, farmer Nguyen Minh Hai in Thanh Binh, Dong Thap achieved 1,200 kg/hectare, etc. Please watch more real-world videos on the Viet Nga Fertilizer channel.

2.2. How to use specialized fertilizers for rice

The appropriate amount of fertilizer depends on the plant’s growth and development stage.

Viet Nga Fertilizer would like to introduce the standard procedure for dosage and timing of specialized fertilizer application, which has been researched and verified in many demonstration models, resulting in outstanding yields:

– First topdressing (8 to 10 days): Apply 15 to 18 kg/hectare of specialized fertilizers for rice, such as NPK 20-15-7+TE, 20-15-5-+TE, or 22-15-8+TE.

– Second topdressing (18 to 22 days): Apply 15 to 18 kg/hectare of specialized rice fertilizers such as NPK 20-15-7+TE, 20-15-5-+TE, or 22-15-8+TE.

The first two stages are when the plant needs a lot of nitrogen and phosphorus to develop its leaves, stems, and roots, and to provide nutrients for the effective shoots.

– Fertilization before panicle initiation (38 to 42 days): Apply 15 to 18 kg/hectare of specialized rice fertilizers such as NPK 15-7-20+TE, 15-5-20+TE, or 19-7-25+TE.

During the heading stage, it is necessary to supplement with NPK fertilizer with a high potassium content to help the panicles grow longer, the grains brighter and firmer, and to reduce lodging.

Depending on the variety, growth stage, and actual condition of the rice plants in the field, farmers can adjust the amount and type of fertilizer accordingly. At the same time, it is necessary to provide sufficient nutrients at the right time to help the rice plants grow well and healthily.

Identifying the correct growth stage of rice plants is crucial for maximizing fertilizer efficiency, saving costs, and achieving the best yields. Importantly, farmers should regularly inspect their fields to promptly control pests and diseases.

2.3. Notes on using fertilizers specifically for rice

When applying fertilizer, it is necessary to choose the correct time and dosage as recommended on the packaging. Avoid using too much or too little fertilizer, as this can disrupt the process and affect the quality and yield of rice at the end of the season.

In addition, each type of specialized fertilizer offers the best results in specific soil conditions. Therefore, farmers should contact the nearest dealer or call 02778 55 66 77 to receive advice from our sales team and technical staff.

Wishing everyone a bountiful harvest and good prices.
