In January 6th, Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, the national food and nutrition advisory committee, China Seed Association in Beijing Co hosted a seminar onstrategic development of potato staple food, Vice Minister of agriculture Yu Xinrong in"strategy seminar" potato staple said, will strive to push into the potato staple fooddevelopment, and strive through years of unremitting efforts, in the premise of notoccupy the three major staple foods, the potato planting area from the current about 80000000 to 150000000 Mu Mu, the realization of the current potato by non-staple food consumption to staple food consumption change. As the supplement of China's three major staple food, potato will gradually become the rice, wheat, maize after China's fourth major staple crop, is expected to 2020, more than 50% of the potato as staple food consumption.

The staple food of put forward the new demand for fertilizer

Chinese agricultural people more concerned about the topic is, after potato staple food,potato extension area will increase, the impact on the agricultural industry? The general manager Chinese - Arabia chemical fertilizer Co. Ltd. assistant marketing minister Wang Xiuqing think, potato has currently become an industry, increasing in Inner Mongolia,Heilongjiang, Gansu and other areas of large-scale planting area and the planting level,has become an important competitive sulfur based compound fertilizer crop varieties.Potato staple food policy with the Ministry of agriculture leading introduced, potato planting area will be further expanded in the crop areas throughout the country,especially in the area of traditional crops, wheat, maize and rice may be a certain area of the replant potato, bring some changes for the planting structure in Henan,Shandong, Hebei and other major grain producing areas, but also bring sales opportunities of sulfur fertilizer compound fertilizer.

"Become a staple for potatoes, potato specific fertilizer has brought greater opportunities, the future of the company will strengthen the stability of product qualityand excellent SACF effects of propaganda, improve in potato cultivation technology and supporting service support. Gradually increase the proportion of direct sales in the sales channels, increase the SACF potato special fertilizer formula varieties, and to provide targeted solutions based on soil test data and farm specialized custom,gradually improve the SACF in potato specific fertilizer on market share." Wang Xiuqing said.

Expand the potato extension area, agricultural people there is a consensus: potato cultivation since the existence of many technical problems, then only the scientificfertilization, to let farmers planted potato quality and high yield. Silicon Valley in Hebeifertilizer Co. Ltd agricultural expert Liu Ying said, at present our country soil because oftoo much fertilizer, soil compaction of soil acidification, loss of self detoxification function, impede the beneficial microbial reproduction and survival, also cause harmfulmicrobial growth, effect of potato root development, delayed emergence time, so that the fruit growth of bad. Soil nutrient imbalance, crop nutrition, easy waterlogged easydrought makes the soil.

Potato planting suitable for soil deep, loose structure, permeability good drainage andorganic rich soil, fear most is the waterlogging. Xinhui agricultural production material(Beijing) Co., Ltd. network development department general manager Gan Liangtao said, want to solve these problems from the root, method is to use the integrated management of water and fertilizer technology, through the pipeline system will be water and fertilizer were applied to the agricultural production. Hebei adorable state water soluble potato project fertilizer limited company manager Wei Zhenwang also said, at present the company for potato planting farms provide irrigation and fertilizationmatching, including calcium and magnesium nitrate potassium nitrate and potassium nitrate, which has good water solubility, easy to use, the effect quickly, containingnitrate nitrogen and available potassium, can quickly add a large demand of potatopotassium, and can supplement a portion of the nitrogen, avoid the potato plant senescence. Calcium and magnesium nitrate can quickly add potato demand forcalcium and magnesium, the ultimate goal is to promote scientific fertilization of high quality and high yield of potato.
