Abstract

The use of clay minerals in agriculture has
expanded due to the significant deleterious effects of the global pollutants.
The idea of Good Agricultural Practices (GAPs) has been put forward especially
for organically grown crops. In this context, several innovative technologies
such as Particle Film Technology (PFT) have been developed within the framework
of the agricultural industry. These consist of chemically inert clay or clay
mineral particles consisting of specially formulated liquid formulations to
reduce damage affecting fruit quality before and after harvesting, such as
color, carbon assimilation rate, which complement disease, insects, sun damage,
freezing damage and fruit development. Over the past two decades, a significant
number of studies have been conducted on the development of various film
technologies. In addition, the effects on garden plants and on various fields
and greenhouse plants have been investigated. In this article, clay minerals
and applications in agriculture are given.

Kil Minerallerinin Tarımda Uygulama Olanakları

Abstract

Küresel kirleticilerin çevreye olan önemli zararlı etkilerden dolayı kil minerallerinin tarımda kullanım alanları genişlemiştir. Özellikle organik olarak yetiştirilen ürünler için İyi Tarım Uygulamaları (GAPs) fikri ortaya konulmuştur. Bu bağlamda Partikül Film Teknolojisi (PFT) gibi birkaç inovatif teknoloji, tarımsal sanayii çerçevesinde geliştirilmiştir. Bunlar, hastalıklar, böcekler, güneş yaralanmaları, donma zararları ve meyvenin gelişimini tamamlayan renk, karbon asimilasyon oranı gibi hasat öncesi ve sonrası meyve kalitesini etkileyen zararları azaltmak için özel olarak formüle edilmiş sıvı formulasyonlardan oluşan, kimyasal olarak inert kil ya da kil mineral partiküllerinden oluşurlar.  Son yirmi yılda çeşitli film teknolojisinin geliştirilmesi üzerinde önemli sayıda araştırma yapılmıştır. Ayrıca bahçe bitkileri ve çeşitli tarla ve sera bitkileri üzerindeki etkileri de araştırılmıştır. Bu makalede kil mineralleri ve tarımda uygulamaları le ilgili bilgiler verilmektedir.
