“…In depth scientific research has been carried out, over the past few years, clarifying the numerous possibilities for using foliar fertilizers in various areas of agriculture. Accurate, replicated small-plot trials are needed to clarify the factors influencing the effectiveness of foliar fertilizers (Jakab et al, 2017;Brankov et al, 2020;Al-Dulaimi1 et al, 2021;Nyagorme et al, 2021).…”

Maize is the cereal crop with the greatest productive potential and production in the world. A field research experiment was conducted in the field settings of the Department of "Plant Production" at the Technical University of Varna, to evaluate the effect of foliar fertilizers on the productivity and quality of Dekalb maize hybrids. Four fertilizer variants were examined and the following biometric parameters were assessed: grain yield, weight per 1000 grains, length of cob, number of rows in cob, number of grains in cob, number of grains per row, weight of grain in cob and weight of the cob. A biochemical analysis of the maize grain was performed and the content of protein, starch and fat was determined. It was established that the combined pairing of soil and foliar fertilization leads to increased productivity and enhanced biometric parameters under study, with the highest values being obtained in the variant ammonium nitrate (rate of 12 kg/dа) + 250 ml/dа NPK 2.5 SO3 with composition 3.0 N: 1.5 P: 10 K: 2.5 SO3 + 250 ml/da SO3 10% Zn, 3% N (sulfides with zinc and nitrogen). It was also ascertained, through the use of the same combination, that the maize hybrids under examination contain the highest amount of protein. Provided, from the findings of the experiment, is a conclusive evidence, that the combination of sowing soil fertilization with ammonium nitrate (rate of 12 kg/da) and two foliar fertilizers (rate of 250 ml/da) – NPK 2.5 SO3 + SO3, 10% Zn, 3% N improved the productivity and quality of the investigated Dekalb maize hybrids.

We investigated the effect of fertilization on the yield components of winter wheat in the crop-year 2016/2017. The experiment was set up in three replications on the area of the SZTE Tangazdaság Ltd. in Hódmezővásárhely. The soil was meadow soil. The forecrop was sunflower. Six fertilizer treatments were used besides the control: N80PK30, N100PK30, N130PK30, N150PK30, N170PK0 and N170PK50 kg/ha active ingredients. Experimental results were processed using single factor ANOVA. The number of spikes/m2 was 564.67 in the control treatment. In the N100PK30 and N130PK30 treatments we measured significantly higher values of 567.67 and 677.33 spikes/m2. The number of kernels per spike was 36.5 in the non-fertilized parcels. We reached the highest value of 43.77 kernels in the N130PK30 treatment. The difference was not significant. The thousand kernel weight changed slightly due to the fertilization. We measured 31.08 g in the control treatment. We got the maximum value of 32.71 g in the N130PK30 treatment. The difference was not statistically justified. Our scientific results showed, that the N130PK30 kg/ha fertilizer level was the optimum for the winter wheat in 2016/2017.

The influence of different fertilizer doses on the yield and quality of winter wheat was studied on meadow soil in the crop-year 2016-2017 in Hódmezővásárhely. The experiment was set up on the area of the SZTE Tangazdaság Ltd, in three replications. The forecrop was sunflower. Six fertilizer setups were applied besides the control: N80PK30, N100PK30, N130PK30, N150PK30, N170PK0, and N170PK50 kg/ha active ingredients. The year 2016-2017 was unfavourable for winter wheat production. The amount of precipitation in the vegetative period of winter wheat was lower than the average. The obtained data were processed by single factor ANOVA. In the control treatment, the yield was 4.20 t/ha. The maximum yield of 5.60 t/ha was reached with N130PK30 kg/ha fertilizer treatment. The yield difference between the two treatments was statistically justified. The nutrient doses higher than N130PK30 did not increase the yield of wheat. A crude protein content of 17.60% was measured in the N0PK0 treatment. The highest content of crude protein (18.70%) was in the N100PK30 and N130PK30 treatments. The Zeleny number was 70.40 ml in the control treatment. In the N130PK30 treatment, it reached the maximum value of 76.0 ml. In our experiment, the N130PK30 kg/ha fertilizer dose was the most favourable concerning the yield and quality parameters of the examined winter wheat variety.
