Abstract

The best results would be obtained from fertigation,which is the integration of irrigation and fertilization, only if the technologies of irrigation and fertilization are properly used.Compared with traditional farming,fertigation has many virtues and special challenges.Only fully water-soluble fertilizers can be used in the fertigation system.A majority of phosphates are not suitable for use in fertigation.The successful application of phosphate will promote the development of fertigation in China.
