iCanola ikhicitwa kusuka etinhlavini, ngako kumele ihlanyelwe ingashoni kwengca 3 cm, lokukushona ngetulu kwalenye inhlanyelo yetinhlavu. Kwentela kuhluma, lomhlabatsi wembhedzewetinhlavu kumele ulunge ngaphandle kwetigadla letinkhulu, kubamantana futsi nekungahlangani kakhulu. Kuhluma lokubambelelekile kutokwenta kubelukhuni kuletitjalo letincane kutsi ticudzelane nelikhula phindze kutibeke encupheni yekutfola tifo.

Tinhlobonhlobo

Tinhlobonhlobo letehlukene tikhona eNingizimu Afrika, tihleleke ngendlela yetidzingeko tato letipholile. Le Agricultural Research Centre (Indzawo yeLucwalingo lweTekulima) icwayisa balimi kutsi batsatse tifo tetitjalo, indlela yekukhula, litfula lekukhokha kanye netinkinga telukhula ngesikhatsi bakhetsa tinhlobonhlobo phindze bakhetse lokuhlangene kwentela kunciphisa tingoti ekukhiciteni. Tinsuku tetimbali tishiyana kusuka kumalanga lamashumi lasikhombisa kuya kulikhulu nemashumi lamabili.

Tinhlobonhlobo Letinsha

Lokucalwa lokusha kwetinhlobonhlobo yinchubo-lehambako lekalelwe ekutfutfukiseni umcudzelwano kanye nasetfubeni lekungena kwemali yenhlanyelo. Tinhlobonhlobo letinsha tihlolelwa kumbe kungavumi emakhemikhali lamaningi lablala titjalo noma tifo, noma kwentela buncono betindzawo tekuphila.

Kulima noma Kuhlanyela

Kushona kwekuhlanyela kungahluka kusuka kumlimi ngamuunye kuya kulomunye, kushiyane ngetintfo letisetjentiswako tekuhlanyela kanye nesimo semhlabatsi. Kahlekahle, kushona kwenhlavu yemakilogrmas lamatsatfu kuya kulamane ngelihekitha linye kuyasetjentiswa, ngalesitjalo sibekwe ngesikhala kwentela kuhluma kahle. iCanola ivame kulinywa ngemuva kwetimvula tekucala tenyanga yaMabasa kuya ekungeneni kwenyanga yeNhlaba. Lesitjalo siyincelencele ekushiseni nakutinkinga tesimo lesibandzako ngesikhatsi saso nasihlluma phindze sikhokha timbali.

Kufakwa kwamanyolo

Ngesikhatsi sekushoda kwanoma ngumaphi emanutrients  atoba nesisindvo emkhicitweni, kunitrogeen naku Sulphur ngutona tindlela letingito letihlangene nekutfutfuka ekukhokheni. Sisindvo lesidzingekako sishiyana kulenhlanyelo leyakhokhwa kulowamnyaka ngaphambilini, lenhlobo yemhlabatsi, lenhlobo yamanyolo lesetjentiswako kanye nenhlobo yemkhicito, fana nekutsi, noma kumbe tindlela letinsha tekulima tiyasetjentiswa noma cha.

Buta losebenta ehhovisi noma lowati kabanti ngabomanyolo kutsi akusite ucale luhla lwekukhulisa lolutohambisana netidzingo temanutrition etinhlanyelo takho ngetigaba letitsite tekuhluma. Njengoba manyolo adzinga kufakwa ngesikhatsi lesitjalo simudzinga kakhulu kwentela kubita kwelinani. Kuvikela kulimala kwetinhlavu, initrogen ne potassium kumele kususwe kuletinhlavu kantsi nekufakwa kwenitrogen kumele kuhlukaniswe kabili kuya katsatfu.

Emanutrients Lamancane kakhulu

iCanola itsatsela malula ku boron naku molybdenum phindze inetidzingo letiphakeme te copper, izinc ne manganese kunaletinye tinhlanyelo tetinhlavu. Lokungekho kahle noma lokungasiko kuningi kungalungiswa ngesikhatsi noma ngaphambi kwekuhlanyela noma ngekwekufutsa kudla muva.

Imali leningi ingacitfwa ekwakheni "indlela lekahle lelinganako yekudla”, kepha lolokutsengiwe kumele kulinganiswe naloko lokutfolwako kwentela kuciniseka kutsi balimi basakhona kwenta imali kuloko labakukhicitile. Tindzawo letimbi noma letiphansi, njengekutsi, tingakhokha lokuphansi kungayi nangekutsi kufakwe manyolo longakanani kuto.
