Utjalwa Njani

Utjalwa ngembewu begodu ngeze wawenza amaplantjisi.

Indlela Yokuwutjala

Imbewu yomhlaza itjalwa endundumeni esimini. Kuncono ukuwutjala ngamareyi kunowurhatjha. Imbewu kufanele itjhingele ibeloso ngamamilimitha ayi-25 mm ukuya ku-40 mm ehlabathini. Wutjale ungatjhingeli Khuu phase ube yi-10 ukuya ku-15 mm ehlabathini ebudisi eenyangeni ezimakhaza. Kuphakanyiswa bona uwutjale utjhingele ehlabathini ehlobo lokha ihlabathi nayoma msinya.
Wutjale ehlabathini emanzi uyihlalise imanzi ihlabathi leyo.

Inkhundla

Iintjalo kufuneka zibe nenkhundla ezihlukaniswe nge-20 cm emareyini ahlukaniswe nge-40 ukuya ku-50 cm qobe ku-m².

Iskhathi Sokuwutjala

Umhlaza ungatjalwa eenyangeni pheze zoke zonyaka nangabe amazinga womtjhiso alungele bona umile. Kodwana kujwayeleke bona utjalwe ngoRhoboyi kuMhlolanja ukufikela kuSihlabantangana.

Iskhathi Sokuwutjala kwenye Indawo/Ukuwufudusa

Awufuduswa.

Ukhula Ngemva Kwesikhathi Esingangani

100 ukuya ku- 120 yamalanga

Ukuwuvundisa

Ukobana uvundiswa njani kuya ngokobana ukuhlolwa kwehlabathi kulethe imiphumela etheni.
Njengomthetho wawo woke faka ihlanganisela ye-, 150 kg/ha fertiliser ye-2:3:4 (24) ehlabathini yangaphezulu ngaphambi kokobana utjale.
Faka i-pottassium emvekeni ezine kanye nemvekeni ezibunane ngemva kokuwutjala
Faka i-limestone ammonium nitrate engaba yi-100 ukuya ku-200kg/ha ehlabathini engaphezulu ngemva kokuwutjala.

Ukuwuvundisa

Lokha nawutjala imbewu qiniseka bona ihlabathi ihlala imanzi. Lokhu ungakwenza ngokuthelelela qobe lilanga. Lokha ubujamo bezulu bupholile, thelelela ngamanzi ahlangana kwe-25 ukuya ku-30 mm qobe llanga ukuqiniseka bona ihlabathi imanzi. Lokha nakutjhisako ihlabathi itlhoga amanzi wokuthelelela angaba yi-50 mm qobe yiveke.
