In Gongju City, the use of cold prevention functional materials minimizes garlic winter damage.

In response to weather anomalies, Gongju City has provided "preemptive support" by supplying 3,700 units of trace element compound fertilizer to 71 farms. To prevent poor garlic yields due to the drop in winter temperatures and abnormal weather, Gongju City has urgently provided cold weather response functional materials. The city announced that it supplied 3,768 units (two types) of trace element compound fertilizer to 71 farms to minimize damage to garlic farmers suffering from quality and quantity reduction due to low temperatures and frost during the wintering period. This material support is a preemptive measure to increase the vitality of garlic in its early growth stages and reduce low-temperature damage. The supplied fertilizer contains trace elements such as boron and molybdenum, as well as amino acid components. These components enhance root establishment and nutrient absorption rates, thereby strengthening the crop's resistance to weather stress such as cold and frost. ...
