Nematode/Nematicide Information

As we prepare our farm land for planting of suckers, it imperative we note all plantation farmers enemies and way to tackle them. Kenfarm wish to advise that getting a viable nematode resistant plantain sucker from us is the best preventive measure. But if you have bought your suckers from another source, then the below info on Nematode will be useful for you.
What are nematicides, and what do you need to know about using nematicides in gardens and farm land? In simple terms, nematicides are chemicals used to kill nematodes – tiny, parasitic worms that live in water or soil. Although the threadlike critters are microscopic, they can cause major damage when they feed on plant tissue or roots.
Using nematicides in gardens or farmland, gardeners have access to two common nematicide products.

There are numerous formulations within each type.
Fumigant nematicides are dispersed rapidly as a gas through the spaces in the soil, thus killing the nematodes living within those spaces. Fumigant nematicides are most effective in moist but well-drained soil with relatively low levels of organic material.
Non-fumigant (non-volatile) nematicides are sold as liquids or granules that are applied to the soil surface or mixed into the top of the soil. The active ingredient is released by irrigation or rainfall, and the effectiveness of the chemicals varies depending on a number of factors, including available moisture, soil structure, soil temperature and organic material content.

How to Use Nematicides

Most products are approved only for commercial applications, as nematicides are highly toxic and should be used only by trained applicators who understand how to mitigate the risks. The chemicals should never be applied when crops are nearing harvest.

Several newer, safer nematicides are currently under study, including biological products based on a fungus that destroys nematode eggs. However, the effectiveness of the products has yet to be proven.
Research has specify that the addiction of manure, compost or other organic material is one nontoxic way to reduce the damage caused by nematodes( consult kenfarm to know why). By improving soil structure and water retention, organic material creates a healthy environment that increases the chances of plant survival even when nematodes are present.
Deep, infrequent watering helps create healthy, nematode-resistant roots. Avoid high-nitrogen fertilizers, which produce lush growth and nematode-prone roots.

Growing plants in above-ground containers (Nursery plants) can also reduce damage caused by nematodes. Use only clean potting mix that hasn’t been contaminated by regular garden soil.

Agriculture › Why Soil Analysis On That Farmland?? by Ken4agent(op): 10:51pm On Mar 10, 2017
The below info will give you reason to do soil analysis. Your soil analysis outcome will determine what treatment kenfarm should apply to your farm to maximise yield.

In the pix in this post is a farm Kenfarm is Managing and has just accomplished treatment process after soil analysis of the soil indicated high PH.

Won’t you rather invite kenfarm for your soil analysis and treatment of your farm. Secrete to a bountiful harvest is adequate preparation…….contact kenfarm via WhatsApp line. 08038623884.

Organic Matter
Incorporating any organic matter will make soil more acidic, but sphagnum peat and pine bark mulch are particularly effective. However, enormous amounts of organic matter must be turned into the soil to have 4.5 8.0 7.0 6.0 4.5 3.5 making conditions that are as bad, or worse, for the plants than the original alkaline soil. Iron sulfate and aluminum sulfate lower soil pH faster than elemental sulfur since they require a significant effect on pH. Because of the cost and effort, this method is generally limited to small garden plots.

Ammonium Fertilizers
Ammonium fertilizers include urea, ammonium nitrate, and ammonium sulfate. Bacteria in the soil convert the ammonium into acidic compounds. Ammonium fertilizers are convenient because they simultaneously fertilize your plants and acidify the soil. However, to avoid applying too much nitrogen, use these products only to make gradual changes to the soil pH. Still, there is less risk of lowering pH too much when using ammonium fertilizers than there is when using elemental sulfur. Ammonium fertilizers also can be used with acid-loving plants to maintain an already low soil pH. Ammonium sulfate is an ammonium fertilizer that is two to three times more acid forming per pound of nitrogen than other commonly used ammonium fertilizers.

Sulfur Compounds
Elemental sulfur, iron sulfate, and aluminum sulfate are products that are often used to dramatically acidify the soil (by 1 or more pH units). Soil bacteria combine elemental sulfur with oxygen and water from the soil to form sulfuric acid. The bacteria require warm, moist, aerated soil. Acidification occurs faster when the application is incorporated into the soil than when the application is left on the soil surface. Sulfur compounds may take up to a year before they have their full effect on soil pH. Too much sulfur can reduce the soil pH below the optimum range for your plants, chemical rather than biological reactions. This speed carries the risk of applying excessive iron or aluminum if you add too much of these products (typically more than 5 pounds per 100 square feet).

Mix Amendments Properly

Soil amendments mainly lower just the pH of the soil they are incorporated into. Mixing amendments into the top 6 to 10 inches of topsoil is generally adequate to acidify soils. Most plants, including trees, absorb the majority of their nutrients from this area. However, deep roots may be subject to nutrient deficiencies since some of the nutrients that are only available in the upper acidified soil are difficult for plants to transport down to the roots.

so if you have cleared your farm, the ideal next step is soil analysis. We will visit your farm regardless of the distance.

Insect Repellant plants and Methods of controlling pest in Farmland

Often times, farmers face huge problem as a result of pest invasion. Pests are dangerous; they are great threats to the success of a farming business.

Chemical pesticides have been the usual way to control pests on farms; however, its effect on human health has waged a huge campaign against its use. Most of the pesticides are poisonous in nature, this is what exactly eradicate pest. But, at times, these pesticides do have residual effects on human as a result of the contamination of the crops during its application.

There are some measures that can be implemented to control pests on farm, without the use of chemicals; some are:
• Proper land preparation: If you adopt a conventional tillage system, where the soil is heavily pulverized to expose pests and their habitat to desiccation, you will experience a pest free situation on your farm.

• Another measure is timely cultivation: This involves studying the reproductive cycle of the prevailing pest, such that, planting is done when the pests are less active. Also, pests are more active during the dry season, thus, planting during the rainy season is another way to boycott pest.
However, taking preventive measure is better than controlling. As you plant your crop, there are some plants you can as well plant simultaneously; these plants are called companion and pest repellant plants.

They help to reduce pest population and also serve some beneficial purposes like proper utilization of space and enhance crop safety through the provision of habitat for beneficial creatures, the companion plants. These plants can be harvested and consumed too. If you are looking for plants that repel flies; or plants that repel aphids; or plants that repel bugs; you can plant any of the following plants alongside your crops and get them protected. Instead of spending more on chemical pesticides, that is detrimental and expensive, you can just invest in edible pest repellant plant. These plants are:

If you plant cabbage and cucumber, radish will repel cabbage maggot and cucumber beetles; it will enhance the quality and quantity of your crop. You can as well consume the radish because it is an edible root vegetable.
Garlic is a known spice but can as well be grown as a pest repellant plant. Garlic repels root maggot, bean beetle, cabbage looper and even rabbit. Garlic is a very useful plant.

Lettuce is a good companion and pest repellant plant for carrot. It repels carrot flies. Both can be harvested as they are edible vegetables.
This ornamental plant can be used as a pest repellant; it repels insect and rabbits.

This is another spice plant that can be used as a pest repellant. It repels rabbits and cabbage looper.

This plant is a very effective pest repellant plant, it repels many pests.
This plant is another effective pest repellant; it repels aphids, cabbage looper, flea beetles, squash bugs, and white flies. These pests are major threats to crop production.
This flower repels cabbage looper, carrot fly, slug, snail and the Mexican bean beetle.
This plant is a broad spectrum pest repellant plant; it repels fleas, moths, ants, beetle, rodents, aphids, squash bugs, and cabbage looper.
This plant is a native of tropical America, this plant repels cutworms.

It is important we start addressing the issue of pest. Prevention they say is better than cure.

Hence, oder for your viable sucker free of all pest from kenfarm and you will be smiling to the bank at the end of this planting season
