Abstract:Through two years of field experiments, the effects of the formula fertilization and conventional fertilization on the yield, quality and economic benefit of cucumber in greenhouse were studied. The results showed that:the yield of cucumber in the formula fertilization area was significantly increased. Its yield of cucumber in 2012 and 2013 was increased by 16.1%and 22.8%compared with the traditional fertilization;the quality of cucumber in the formula fertilization area was improved obviously, in 2012 and 2013, compared with the traditional fertilization, the soluble solids content increased by 0.25 and 0.38 percentage points respectively, the VC content increased by 11.2mg/kg and 13.5mg/kg respectively, the nitrate content decreased by 34.8% and 33.1% respectively. The economic benefits of the formula fertilization area was significantly increased, its net income in 2012 and 2013 was increased by 68627 yuan/hm2 and 82257 yuan/hm2 compared with the traditional fertilization.
