Techniques for reducing nitrate accumulation in vegetables

With the continuous improvement of people's living standards and health awareness, consumers are increasingly concerned about the quality of vegetables. Modern medicine shows that nitrate is reduced to nitrite in the human body. If it accumulates too much, it can cause methemoglobinemia and react with amines in the human body to form powerful carcinogens and induce digestive system canceration. Vegetables are nitrate-rich crops, and 81.2% of the human body's nitrates are derived from vegetables. Therefore, nitrate content is one of the important indicators for evaluating the quality of vegetables. There are many influencing factors on nitrate accumulation in vegetables, which are related to the varieties of vegetables, and related to moisture, temperature and light. They are also related to nitrogen application rate, nitrogen fertilizer type, and nitrogen application methods, but fertilization is one of the most important factors. To reduce the nitrate content of vegetables, the first is to apply reasonable fertilization, control the type and quantity of fertilization, and master the methods of fertilization. The second is to adjust the water, temperature, light and other environmental conditions, so as to achieve the control of plant root absorption rate, reduce the absorption, and thus accelerate the purpose of nitrate metabolism in plants. First, rational fertilization 1, choose the right variety of nitrogen fertilizer: vegetable plants from the soil to absorb the nitrate nitrogen, was reduced to ammonia and participate in amino acid synthesis, the formation of protein. If nitrate nitrogen does not have time to convert, it will cause the accumulation of nitrate. It can be seen that nitrate nitrogen fertilizer has a greater impact on the content of vegetables. Ammonium nitrogen fertilizer can also be converted to nitrate nitrogen by nitrification in dry land, with good ventilation and other suitable conditions. In addition, the improper use of urea and organic matter also tends to cause nitrate accumulation. Different kinds and forms of nitrogenous fertilizers have a great influence on the nitrate content of vegetables (ammonium nitrate> urea> ammonium bicarbonate> ammonium sulfate> ammonium chloride). When applying nitrogenous fertilizers generally, it is necessary to use urea, ammonium chloride, or nitrate nitrogen fertilizer (ammonium nitrate) ammonium nitrogen (ammonium chloride) in combination (a ratio of about 3:7), which can reduce the nitrate concentration, but also To make vegetables grow well, nitrate nitrogen fertilizer should be applied as little as possible. 2. Appropriate control of nitrogen fertilizer application: The application of nitrogen fertilizer was significantly correlated with nitrate accumulation in vegetables. Therefore, to ensure the quality of vegetables, it is necessary to properly control the amount of nitrogen fertilizers in vegetable fields. More organic fertilizer, humic acid fertilizer, and microbial fertilizer should be applied in the soil, and nitrogen fertilizer should be less applied. Reasonable organic and inorganic ratios can promote a lasting balance of nutrient supply, improve the nutritional environment of vegetables, and reduce nitrate accumulation. For example, the nitrate content of edible parts such as Chinese cabbage and spinach after application of organic fertilizer is reduced from 1000 mg/kg to about 600 mg/kg of single fertilizer. However, organic fertilizers should be applied after high-temperature heaping and decomposing to kill pathogens and eggs. The ability of different types of vegetables to absorb and accumulate nitrates is also different. Leaf vegetables> melons> eggplants are common. 3. Nitrogen fertilizer should be used in combination with phosphorus and potassium: Phosphorus and potassium can promote the synthesis of protein and important nitrogen compounds and reduce the accumulation of nitrate. When sufficient phosphorus is available, it can promote nitrate reduction and assimilation, and also increase the absorption of nitrate nitrogen by vegetables. Potassium is beneficial to the reduction and utilization of nitrate nitrogen, which can make the nitrate content in vegetables reach the minimum. Therefore, the balanced application of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium has an important position in controlling the nitrate content of vegetables. The suitable ratio of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium can not only increase the yield of vegetables, but also make the content of nitrate in vegetables reach the minimum. 4, strictly control the application of nitrogen fertilizer: nitrogen fertilizer should be deep, early application. Deep application can reduce nitrogen volatilization, extend fertilizer supply time, and increase nitrogen fertilizer utilization. Early application promotes early and long-term growth of vegetable plants, prolongs fertilizer efficiency, and reduces nitrate accumulation. Fertilization should also be applied according to the type of vegetables, cultivation conditions, and climatic conditions. In the production of pollution-free vegetables, the nitrate content is constantly changing. According to the study, as the time of topdressing with nitrogen fertilizers, nitrate content in vegetables has gradually decreased. For vegetables, the topdressing time should be arranged 30 days before harvesting, and the principle of top dressing should be “a few times”. 5, increase nitrogen fertilizer synergist: nitrogen fertilizer can inhibit the activity of nitrifying bacteria in the soil, slow down the conversion of ammonium nitrogen in the soil to nitrate nitrogen reaction rate, in order to reduce the accumulation of nitrate in vegetables. Commonly used are: N-pyrroline (CP) and dicyandiamide (DCD) consumption generally accounts for 0.5-3% of pure nitrogen in nitrogen fertilizers. Second, a reasonable adjustment of water, temperature, light conditions: the same vegetable in different environmental conditions, there are differences in nitrate content. Generally, there is less accumulation of nitrate under adequate soil moisture, high temperature and strong light. On the contrary, there is a large accumulation of nitrate in the soil with low water content and low temperature and low light. Reasonable irrigation, reasonable dense planting, intercropping and other measures can improve the growing environment of vegetables and reduce their nitrate content. For greenhouses, greenhouses and other facilities, effective measures such as auxiliary light sources or timely updating of greenhouse films can be adopted.
