Fertilizer schedule
Use the stage cards as a planning checklist, then read country notes for local fertilizer language (rates are not prescriptions).
Work in compost or well-rotted manure; add a balanced basal dressing if soil tests low in P/K.
Band a light starter fertilizer near the row; avoid burning young roots with high-salt products.
Side-dress with nitrogen for leafy growth if leaves pale; water in thoroughly.
Shift toward potassium and steady moisture for fruiting vegetables (tomato, pepper, cucurbits).

Cross-irrigated Fertilization: 80U N -50Ude P-150U K: Fertilizer maintenance: 20 U of N at the stage of 3 leaves 2to 50U and K 3 to 4 weeks after planting planting distance: between the rows ; And 0.30m between plants 0.15A 0.18M
non cross-irrigated Fertilization: 80U N -50Ude P-150U K: Fertilizer maintenance: 20 U of N at the stage of 3 leaves 2to 50U and K 3 to 4 weeks after planting .distance planting: between rows ; And 0.30m between plants 0.15A 0.18M
Irrigated. Organic manure aplication an NPK application at the time of plantation.
Irrigated. Absorbing irrigtion of the lands to bring up enough moisture in the soil. Organic manure aplication an NPK application at the time of plantation.
Traditional irrigation and drip irrigation. organic and mineral fertilization during site preparation and mineral covering. Direct planting bulbs (vegetative propagation - the bulbs not used its power) on the final field. Preference for the earliest varieties. National production was dimunué release from the import of garlic bulbs with bigger and cheaper prices.
In this area also, the culture starts after the rains. The contribution of composts is critical to the success of the production. Propagation is by seed pods in the nursery, followed by transplanting.
Culture begins after rain irrigated. Garlic is grown on plates exposed with added composted. Propagation is by seed pods in the nursery, followed by transplanting.
irrigated. basic fertilization 150 kg / ha of phosphorus (P2O5); 100 kg / ha of ammonium sulfate; 150 kg / ha sulfate potasse.Semis live lines or ridges. The cloves are placed tip upwards 4-5 cm deep. Watering: First abundant then see moderate arrested a month before harvest. Harvest: 3 to 5 months after the semiconductor, when the stems and leaves are withered.
Fertile soil guarantees good yield of garlic. Sowing should be in rows and the distance between the rows should be 6-8 inches while the distance between the plants should be 3 inches. Nitrogen is extremely necessary for garlic. In november 80 Kg ammonium sulphate or 40 Kg Urea per acre should be used. In december again use ammonium sulphate or urea in the same amount. For the third time in mid January apply 40 Kg ammonium sulphate or 20 Kg urea per acre.
Directly planted; NPK fertilization at planting; NK application 3 weeks, 5 weeks, 7 weeks and 9 weeks after planting; irrigate 2-3 times per week; pesticide application to control pests and diseases necessary; reommended varieties include Continental, Asiatic, Rocambole and Artichoke; irrigation should be discontinued at maturity to harden and dry the bulbs before harvesting. Garlic is grown by a few farmers in this region.
Follow the stage cards above (soil prep → planting → mid-season). Exact rates depend on soil tests and local packages — FAO notes below show how growers describe fertilization in different countries.
Treat them as historical/field guidance, not a prescription for your plot. Units and products differ by country. Confirm with agricultural extension before applying.
Not a fertilizer prescription. Over-application wastes money and can harm plants and waterways. Follow local extension packages.
