The present invention relates generally to an okra based organic fertilizer for vegetables and its method of preparation and more particularly the invention relates to an anaerobic bacteria fermented okra based organic fertilizer for vegetables and its method of preparation.
The fertilizer is a very important means of production in crop plantation, which plays a great part in the process of cultivation and management of vegetables. Currently, major fertilizers used in the production bases of vegetables all over the world are compound fertilizers and chemical fertilizers with small amount of organic fertilizers. Although, the chemical fertilizer has a quick effect, its leaching loss is serious and the young plant can be burnt as a result of improper fertilization. A long-term application may harden the soil and lower the effect of the fertilizer while it's physical and chemical properties become worse, posing an impact on the quality of vegetables to some extent. At present, chemical fertilizers are prohibited in compliance with the requirements for a green agriculture. For example, no chemical fertilizer is allowed to be directly applied to the soil in the developed countries for the environmental protection. While organic fertilizers (i.e., bean cake fertilizers, feces) play a ground-breaking role in the development of vegetable produce, there are some noticeable problems in terms of its process of preparation and treatment of nutrients and pathogens. Therefore, to facilitate the development of the vegetable industry with high-yield, quality, cost-effectiveness and environmental friendliness, there is a felt need for the development of a novel organic fertilizer.
Numerous innovations have been provided in prior art that are adapted to organic fertilizer. Even though these innovations may be suitable for the specific purposes to which they address, however, they would not be as suitable for the purposes of the present invention.
For example, Chinese Patent Application No. CN105085050A to Sun Wuyue et. al discloses about a nutrient medium for okra soilless culture, which is composed of biogas residue, chicken manure, vermiculite, perlite, zeolite and fermented composite microbial inoculant.
Chinese Patent Application No. CN105777394A to Yuan Guofang et. al discloses about an okra planting organic fertilizer which is made from neutral soil, cladophora powder, pig manure, bitter apricot seed powder, dragon fruit peel, krill oil, a water retaining agent, fructus schisandrae residue, rhizoma coptidis residue, urea, calcium superphosphate, and multiple microorganisms.
Chinese Patent Application No. CN105819956A to Liu Chaohui discloses about an okra seedling matrix, prepared from chicken manure, vinegar residue, river sand, potassium feldspar powder, kalium bacteria, licorice, Erigeron breviscapus, vermiculite and sawdust.
U.S. Patent application No. 20160183533, to Taghavi et al. discloses about a planting matrix for benefiting plant growth, wherein the planting matrix comprising a biologically pure culture of Bacillus licheniformis to benefit plant growth, wherein the plant matrix is derived from okra plant.
U.S. Patent application No. 20160183535 to Taghavi et al. discloses about a method for benefiting growth of a plant, the method comprising delivering a composition comprising a biologically pure culture of Bacillus pumilus, which acts as a growth medium surrounding the plant; soil or growth medium before sowing seed of the plant in the soil; or soil or growth medium before planting the plant, the plant cutting, the plant graft, or the plant callus tissue in the soil or growth medium, in an amount suitable to benefit plant growth.
U.S. Pat. No. 9,522,852 to Uesugi et al. discloses about a method for producing a compost, comprising composting plant-derived organic waste at a weight reduction rate of 95% or more by fermentation treatment, specifically an intermittently agitated fermentation, and a secondary fermentation, which comprises an aerated fermentation, using a microorganism of Bacillus subtilis strain or a mutant strain thereof; the compost produced by the above method; and a method for producing vegetables using the compost.
It is apparent now that numerous innovations for organic fertilizer and its method and preparation have been developed in the prior art that are adequate for various purposes. Furthermore, even though these innovations may be suitable for the specific purposes to which they address, accordingly, they would not be suitable for the purposes of the present invention as heretofore described. Thus an anaerobic bacteria fermented okra based organic fertilizer for vegetables and its method of preparation is needed.
The present invention relates to a novel organic fertilizer and its method of preparation. The product prepared by this method can condition the soil, increase the activity of microorganisms in the soil and facilitate to increase the biomass in an individual vegetable by more than 10%; it can contain the growth of the vegetable germs and effectively control various pathogenic bacteria harmful to flowers to significantly improve the vegetable quality with the use of pesticide to less than 90%. This organic fertilizer is applicable to plantation of vegetables or fruits, cereal crops and flowers with a broad application and it has a prospect for commercial production.
The present invention discloses about an organic fertilizer and its method of preparation. Wherein the fertilizer is an okra based organic fertilizer comprises sterilized mature okra fruits, a colloidal fluid of bacilli, 10-15 fractions of chicken droppings, 20-25 fractions of soybean residuals, 10-15 fractions of plant ashes and 45-60 fractions of water.
In view of the foregoing, it is therefore an object of the present invention to provide an anaerobic bacteria fermented okra based organic fertilizer for vegetables and its method of preparation.
It is another object of the present invention to provide an organic fertilizer, which can increase the activity of microorganisms in the soil and facilitate to increase the biomass in an individual vegetable by more than 10%.
It is another object of the present invention to provide an organic fertilizer that can enhance the growth of the vegetable germs and effectively control various pathogenic bacteria harmful to flowers to significantly improve the vegetable quality with the use of pesticide to less than 90%.
