Main Technical Content: 3. Site Selection 31. Environmental Requirements The production area of products using the "Boshan Blueberry" geographical indication trademark is located in the Boshan Town of the Boshan District of Zibo City, Shandong Province, within the Lushan Mountain range. The specific natural and geographical environment of this area features a temperate continental monsoon semi-humid climate, with an altitude of over 300 meters, abundant surface and groundwater, and clean and humid air. It belongs to the Zibo sloping basin, with brown soil, deep soil layers, good air permeability, high potassium content, and a weakly acidic soil suitable for blueberry growth. 2. Ecological Requirements a)? The main varieties suitable for cultivation in the Boshan area are northern high-bush blueberries and semi-high bush blueberries. The ecological conditions require sufficient sunlight, with a low temperature below 7.2°C for 450–850 hours during the winter; loose, deep, well-ventilated soil; good drainage and moisture but no waterlogging; a pH value of 4.0–5.5; and organic matter content in the rhizosphere soil greater than 5%. b)? The irrigation water quality should comply with GB/T 18407.2-2001 standards. Soil Preparation Flatten and level the soil. It is advisable to plant in a north-south direction, or along contour lines on irregular hills. Determine the planting spacing based on the size of the shrubs. For high-bush blueberry varieties, the spacing is 2.0–2.5 m × 1.0–1.2 m; for semi-high bush blueberry varieties, it is 1.5–2.0 m × 0.8–1.0 m. Dig 50 cm × 50 cm × 50 cm planting holes or 50 cm × 50 cm planting trenches. On flat land, mound the soil for planting. c) Soil Improvement Adjust the soil pH value when it exceeds 5.5. Apply 200–300 mesh sulfur powder evenly throughout the field and till the soil 15–20 cm deep. The specific application amount should comply with Table 1.
