Kidney Bean Cultivation Kidney bean cultivation is among the legumes that yield abundant yields with favorable climatic conditions. In addition to the suitable conditions for the cultivation of kidney beans, better quality yield is ensured with important issues to be considered. Kidney bean cultivation is among the grains produced in our country. While kidney beans are among the types of beans; it is generally grown in the Aegean Region. Kidney beans are among the most widely grown legumes in the world. While it is among the foods that should be consumed for a balanced and healthy diet; It is very rich in carbohydrates and protein. Kidney beans are among the foods that keep you full and balance blood sugar in terms of the proteins it contains. It is very healthy to be consumed with olive oil. Sowing in kidney bean cultivation The seed must be carefully selected for sowing in kidney bean cultivation. Preferring quality and large seeds is very important in the harvest. In addition, the soil area to be planted in kidney bean cultivation should be carefully examined. If kidney bean cultivation will be done in a closed area, kidney bean seeds can be planted in every season. However, if kidney beans will be grown in cold regions, kidney bean seeds should be sown in the early spring months to protect against the danger of frost. In this way, the kidney bean seedling is not affected by the cold. In regions with frost, it is inevitable for the plant to get cold. Germination of kidney bean seed Before planting the kidney bean seed, the soil should be aerated and provided with sufficient moisture to provide the necessary environment for the germination of kidney beans. After aerating the soil, the kidney bean seeds are sown in rows at a depth of 5 centimeters and soil is thrown on it. The soil should be moist until the kidney beans emerge. When the soil dries, it should be watered. When the kidney beans germinate, fertilizer is added to ensure that the kidney beans grow healthier. Thus, it is aimed to increase the quantity and quality of the product. After the kidney beans germinate, watering is ensured by paying attention to the moisture content of the soil until the product starts to be collected. When the seedling emerges after planting, it is ensured that the kidney beans grow in softer soil by hoeing the soil three times at certain intervals. During this period, removing the weeds in the soil allows the kidney beans to grow more easily. Thus, a better quality product is obtained in kidney bean cultivation. Harvesting in kidney bean cultivation The necessary harvesting in kidney bean cultivation varies according to the date when the kidney beans were planted. Kidney beans planted in the early spring are expected to be harvested around August. While the harvest is taken from the kidney bean plant until the fall; With the planting of kidney beans, it is aimed to start harvesting the necessary harvest after 3 months. After 3 months of necessary maintenance, quality kidney beans are started to be collected.
However, it is expected that the harvest will vary according to the climatic conditions of the planted kidney beans. The important points to be considered in kidney bean harvesting are important to collect the kidney beans on time. With the frequent collection of kidney beans, the kidney bean plant gives more products. It is observed that frequently collected kidney beans constantly produce new kidney beans. In addition, the seed used in kidney bean harvest has a great effect. It is very important for the harvest to choose the seeds for the field and the seeds for soft soil according to the area to be planted. After the necessary maintenance is done, it is possible to obtain a high rate of kidney beans by collecting regularly. If kidney beans will be planted again the following year, the biggest and largest kidney beans in the kidney bean plant should not be collected and should be kept for use as seeds the following year.
