“Agriculture of environmental conservation type in greenhouse vegetable” “Agriculture of environmental conservation type” means sustainable agriculture considering reduction of the environmental burden by using chemical fertilizers, agricultural chemicals, etc. through keeping soil in good condition, while paying attention to harmony with productivity, taking advantage of the material circulation function of agriculture. For vegetable protected cultivation using greenhouses, intensive management is carried out to secure incomes from a limited area. The amount of chemical fertilizers and pesticides to be used tends to be higher than other crops and outdoor vegetables, and there is concern about the burden on the surrounding environment. In this lecture, first, the problems of protected production on environmental burden and the reason why such problems became obvious will be described based on the characteristics of protected production. Next, the way of thinking and technique about reduction of chemical fertilizer and pesticide and the case study on the lecturer concerned will be described. Finally, organic fertilizers are often paid attention to promote environmental conservation agriculture, however, these are not equal. There are also many unexplained parts about the effect of organic fertilizer. The role of organic fertilizer when it is applied to greenhouse will be described. |
