The base fertilizer is applied at once before sowing in combination with deep ploughing of the whole land, generally with farmyard manure as the mainstay, and the base fertilizer is better applied in autumn or early spring in grain fields. This article introduces how to scientifically fertilize millet planting for your reference.

Seed fertilizer has been widely used as an important yield-boosting measure in cereal production. Nitrogen fertilizer as seed fertilizer can generally increase yield by about 10%, but the amount should not be too much.

When using ammonium sulphate as seed fertiliser, a dosage of 37.5 kg per hectare is appropriate, and urea at 11.3-15 kg is appropriate. In addition, farmyard manure and phosphate fertiliser as seed fertiliser also have yield increasing effects.

The period when fertiliser is more effective in increasing yields is the 15-20 day gestation stage before the spike, and it is generally appropriate to use about 75 kg of pure nitrogen per hectare. If you have more nitrogen, you can apply "fertiliser" at the beginning of the nodulation period and "grain fertiliser" at the gestation period.

Foliar spraying of phosphorus and trace element fertilisers in the late stages of cereal production can also promote flowering and fruiting and seed filling.

When the grain has just emerged, if you find that the broken strip is serious, you can use warm water to soak the seeds, and then mix with medicine to smother the seeds to germinate them, and then sow them immediately when the embryo breaks through the seed coat. Grain seedlings are slightly larger and can be transplanted using rainy days for fields with few missing plants. Generally, the seedlings are more likely to survive when transplanted around 5 leaves.
