Comparative Analysis of Biometric Indicators of Wheat in the Application of Chicken Manure

Abstract

In this work, the analysis of bushiness, stem height and other biometric indicators of winter wheat was carried out. The research was carried out in the fields of the Pestrechinsky district of the Republic of Tatarstan by Ak Bars Pestretsy LLC. The soils of the studied areas are classified as light gray forest, with humus content - 3.0%, acidity - 8.0, phosphorus - 295.0 mg/kg, potassium - 70.0 mg/kg. Three plots were taken for the experiments: control - experimental plot (without the introduction of chicken manure and Mephosphon preparation), experimental 1 (rotted chicken manure was introduced), experimental 2 (chicken manure treated with Mephosphon was introduced). The aim of the research is to study the effect of chicken manure on crop yields. The experiments were carried out when sowing winter wheat of the “Skipetr-E” variety in the period from 04/19/2021 to 06/01/2021. Wheat bushiness in the soil, with the introduction of rotted chicken manure, increased by 36.84%, the weight of the raw stem by 15.9 %, dry stem weight by 22.2%, raw root weight by 138%, and dry root weight decreased by 14.3-3% compared to the control (soil without chicken manure). The bushiness of wheat in the soil, with the introduction of chicken manure treated with Mephosphon, increased by 73.68%, the weight of the raw stem by 43.74%, the weight of the dry stem by 77.7%, the weight of the raw root by 200%, and the weight of the dry root 157 % increased compared to control. Thus, the use of chicken manure treated with Mephosphone improves soil fertility due to the nutrient cycle caused by changes in the dynamics of soil microbes.
