Abstract:

In order to further promote the replacement of fertilizer reduction in Taihu Lake basin, Taihu eco-island was selected as the study object, and 200 business operators were visited and investigated from October to December 2020, and the composition characteristics and influencing factors of fertilizer intensity in Taihu eco-island were analyzed. The results showed that by 2020, the total fertilization intensity of Taihu eco-island was still at a relatively high level, with an average total fertilization intensity of 735.6 kg·hm-2, among which the average fertilizer fertilization intensity was 486.6 kg·hm-2. The average fertilization intensity of organic fertilizer was 321.0 kg·hm-2, and the average organic fertilizer substitution rate was 37.01%. Fruit trees and vegetables are the crops that have the greatest impact on the total fertilization intensity. The fertilizer type that has the greatest impact is changing from chemical fertilizer to organic fertilizer, and the nutrient that has the greatest impact is changing from nitrogen to phosphorus and potassium. Considering the requirements for the construction of Taihu eco-island, it is suggested to combine the characteristics of crop fertilizer demand and the prevention and control points of agricultural non-point source pollution, continue to steadily promote the reduction of fertilizer, and further promote the replacement of organic fertilizer with chemical fertilizer.

Key words: Taihu eco-island, fertilization intensity, organic fertilizer substitution rate
