Lupine is able to compensate for investment deficiencies by increasing the branching of existing plants.\u003cbr\u003e The fertilization to be ordinarily adopted is phosphate: it can be assumed that 60-80 kg\/ha of P2O5 largely meets the needs of the crop. Potassium fertilization is certainly not necessary in the case of sub-acid soils of volcanic origin, while it can be useful in siliceous soils, acidic due to leaching of cations.

Therefore: plowing of the stubble at medium depth, as early as possible before sowing, and harrowing to prepare the seed bed which, moreover, does not require much fine tuning. \u003cbr\u003eThe sowing of white lupine in Italy is done in October-November, in rows 0.25-0.35 m apart with a suitable number of seeds to ensure a population density of 20-30 plants per m2; with the most common types requiring 100-150 kg\/ha of seed. Lupine is able to compensate for investment deficiencies by increasing the branching of existing plants.\u003cbr\u003e The fertilization to be ordinarily adopted is phosphate: it can be assumed that 60-80 kg\/ha of P2O5 largely meets the needs of the crop. Potassium fertilization is certainly not necessary in the case of sub-acid soils of volcanic origin, while it can be useful in siliceous soils, acidic due to leaching of cations. Nitrogen is never necessary, thanks to the active symbiotic nitrogen fixation that takes place in the root tubercles, abundant in lupine.\u003cbr\u003e Weed control can be achieved with weeding; the herbicides applicable to lupins are included among those already mentioned for other grain legumes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"center\"\u003e \u003cimg src=\"http:\/\/www.agraria.org\/coltivazionierbacee\/lupino.jpg\" alt=\"Vacuum packed lupins\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\"\u003e Vacuum packed lupins (photo \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.agraria.org\/\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ewww.agraria.org\u003c\/a\u003e )\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e Collection and use\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e Maturation is reached in June-July.
