Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention is an agricultural method mainly for establishing a natural agricultural method for producing vegetables. The entire field is covered with white clover, and the white clover growing in the nursery is cut to obtain the same size as this nursery. It is a no-till vegetable garden where the entire field where vegetables, flowers, and herbs are grown is covered with white clover while leaving the white clover other than this place. Regarding farming.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Generally, when a white clover is used in a field, a method is used in which it is grown and cultivated as green manure to weed out all the white clover.

There are documents that use white clover in different ways. The author, Masanobu Fukuoka, has 3 natural farming methods. Here, the method of mixing seeds such as vegetables in natural clayy red soil and making clay dumplings in the field of white clover in roses is written, but even if seeds of 100 vegetables are sown, one vegetable There are many things that cannot be done. However, with this method, amazing vegetables can be harvested under the condition of no pesticides, no fertilizers, no weeding and no tillage.

However, there is no conventional method for weeding a white clover with a rug to make a no-till nursery.

[0005]

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] Using a white clover in the field, making a seedling without tilling, raising a stable harvest, and making vegetables, flowers and herbs that are perfect as natural foods. The challenge was to establish it.

The properties and utility value of white clover, the plant height is 2
It is as low as 0 cm to 30 cm and the crops that exceed this height are sunny. Fertilize the soil with legumes. It must have a strong swelling property regardless of soil type. No need to sow seeds every year with perennial plants. Keeping green throughout the year, even in the presence of some snow. And the important thing is that it is difficult to grow other plants from the part where the white clover is clustered, and it is almost unnecessary to weed from this part. Therefore, it is possible to target non-weeding except for the nursery. The subject was to obtain the effect of these white clovers.

It is a problem of white clover. It is difficult to grow other plants from the part where the white clovers are clustered. This is an advantage that it is difficult to grow many kinds of weeds, but vegetables, flowers and herbs are also difficult to grow. Because
This is because for many vegetables, it is essential for the sun to reach the height of the white clover from the seed. Therefore, in order to secure the sunlight immediately after the germination of the crop, the problem was to weed the white clover by a method harmless to the crop and to make a seedling by no tilling.

[0008]

[Means for Solving the Problems] A method of covering the entire field with white clover and weeding the white clover at the nursery rather to make a no-till nursery. The white clover that grows in the nursery of the field is mowed, and rather, it is spread in the same size as this nursery and left for weeding.
The abandonment period varies depending on the season, and weeds can be weeded in 10 to 20 days when the white clover grows rapidly, but in the winter, the white clover grows slowly and causes damage, but does not wither. When you can't wait until it withers, you can easily remove the damaged white clover. In this way, the place where the white clover is weeded and rather removed is used as the seedling, but the roots of the white clover that continues to grow around the seedling may grow and sprout in the seedling. Therefore, not only white clover but only roots like this are removed from the nursery.

The white clover that continues to grow around the nursery covers the seedlings for about 10 cm toward the nursery, so that the net nursery that can secure the daylight immediately after germination of the crop is rather a net nursery. The width is about 20 cm less than the width. In addition, since it is necessary to cultivate the nursery when stepping on it, it is important not to step on the nursery in order to utilize the no-tillage. For these reasons, the width of the nursery, that is, the width of the nursery is about 1 m, which is the width of the nursery that is easy to use for many kinds of crops that can be handled without stepping on the nursery.

As a substitute for the above, water-permeable carpets and blankets can also be used. Rather, they are lighter and less prone to decay, rarely fly in the wind, heavy and do not need to be fixed, rather than It is convenient.

The substitute material described in [0010] will be referred to as a rug, and the conditions and reasons necessary for weeding as a rug will be described. It must be a water-permeable and air-permeable rug that germinates and grows the seeds of weeds under the rug at the nursery. And the rugs are tough and have small eyes so that the weeds do not stick through the rugs. And it is a rug that does not allow sunlight to pass through, which does not allow proper photosynthesis in this weed. Weeding can be done faster if these conditions are met. Also, the germination competition between crops and weeds grown after removing the rug is reduced.

[0012]

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Embodiments of the present invention will be described based on examples with reference to the drawings. First of all, it is ridge making.
A wide path 20 cm to 50 cm through the passage that doubles as a drainage for the field is wide. The width of the nursery should be about 1 m, and it should be the width of your hand without stepping into the nursery. The length of the nursery is made considering the drainage of the entire field. The height of the nursery is 10 to 30 cm. When the height of the nursery is high, it is dry and when it is low, the water retention capacity increases.

During the above-mentioned work, if you remove all root-bearing plants such as Kumazasa, Japanese pampas grass, and mugwort, and mix the fertilizer with the soil, don't miss this time. After that, it will not be tilled, so make it carefully.

Then, the entire field is covered with a white clover centering on the passage. Various plants will sprout in the field, but they must be extracted or cut before tying the seeds. When the seeds fall, weeding is needed again.

Next, the white clover at the nursery is mowed, spread rather in the same size as the nursery, and left to weed. It is left to stand for 10 to 20 days, but it is hard to die in winter, so it is necessary to damage the white clover before removing it. After this, rather remove the roots, and if there are rooting roots in this nursery, remove them and grow vegetables, flowers and herbs while leaving the white clover outside the nursery, so plant seeds according to the basics of agriculture. Good to call.

[0016]

Rather, the substitute described in [0010] is
Besides white clover, many kinds of herbaceous plants can be weeded.

By covering the entire field with white clover, it is possible to aim for non-weeding except at the nursery, and to fertilize the field soil year by year. Also, rather than using weeds to create seedlings, the effect of no-tilling is maximized, the number of beneficial insects such as frogs and earthworms increases, and many types of crops can be harvested without pesticides.

However, although the harvested crops have individuality in shape and size in size,
It produces extra large vegetables, has a very delicious taste, and can produce a perfect crop as a natural food.
