“…According to the calculations given in Table 2, the highest water consumption for the formation of a product unit (WCC was equal to 1839.8-1848.8 m 3 /ton) was in the control plot in non-irrigated conditions. On the other hand, water was more effectively used by sunflower hybrids on the plot with sub-soil laying of irrigation pipelines (-30 cm), where the weighted average coefficient of water consumption was equal to 1157.55 m 3 ЗРОШЕННЯ -ОСУШЕННЯ 1189.95 m 3 /t (hybrid Ukrainian F1); 1.94-2.41 and 1.88-2.27 kg of grain were got for 1 m 3 of irrigation water, respectively. In these variants of the experiment, the irrigation efficiency coefficient was 688.8-913.2 m 3 of irrigation water for obtaining an additional ton of grain yield of Rimisol F1 hybrid and 742.0-967.0 m 3 of water for obtaining 1 ton of grain of Ukrainian F1 hybrid.…”
