Blue Agriculture advises farmers on heatwave risks
The Azraq Agriculture Directorate has called on farmers to exercise caution and stay alert during the current heatwave affecting the area. They emphasized the importance of following verified guidelines to minimize heat stress on crops. These guidelines include regular and deep watering early in the morning or after sunset, avoiding watering during midday, spraying amino acids or stress-resistant stimulants before and during the heatwave, and adding potassium to enhance plants’ ability to withstand high temperatures. Farmers are also advised not to perform pruning or heavy nitrogen fertilization during this period, and to avoid spraying pesticides and foliar fertilizers during the hottest hours of the day. Maintaining soil moisture through organic mulching and daily monitoring of plant health are crucial, with special attention given to young trees and seedlings, as they are most vulnerable to elevated temperatures.
