Peculiarities of the Use of Innovative Growth Regulators in Potato and Soybean Cultivation in the Forest-Steppe of the Priob’e Area

Abstract

The authors cited the results of comprehensive experiments on the application of innovative environmentally acceptable growth regulators on industrial crops: potatoes and soybeans. The experiments were conducted in 2019-2021 in the soil and climatic zone of the drained forest-steppe in the conditions of chernozem on potato varieties, Lyubava (early) and Tuleevsky (medium maturing), and soybean on grain Zolotistaya (early maturing). These experimental fields belong to the Educational and Experimental Farm “Praktik” of Novosibirsk Region and the Closed Joint-Stock Company Livestock Breeding Farming “Irmen” of Novosibirsk Region. The maximum photosynthetic performance of Novosil and Ecofus applied to potatoes and soybeans is up to 19 % compared to control. The authors of the study treated crops before sowing as well as on the shoots before the beginning of the phase of budding. The yield against the growth regulators used increased significantly by 21-24 % when Novosil and Ecofus were applied during seed treatment and when spraying vegetative plants before the phase of budding. It was statistically established that the potato yield depended on variety by 30 %, on growth regulators by 33, and on conditions of the year by 23 %.

Stimulation of growth processes and productivity of grain crops in the forest-steppe of Western Siberia

“…Grain crops are the leading element of crop production in Western Siberia. Advanced production technologies are based on the use of high-yielding intensive varieties, placement of crops to optimize predecessors, providing plants with nutrients for a programmed harvest in various soil and climatic conditions, differentiated soil treatment and fertilization, the use of integrated protection of plants and pests, intensive implementation of a complex of agrotechnical works [1][2][3][4][5]. When cultivating grain crops, one should take into account the biological characteristics of the crop, as well as the requirements for growing conditions [6][7][8].…”

Aspects of the application of precision agriculture in the conditions of intensification of grain production in the forest-steppe of Western Siberia

“…Currently in the aspect of food security the task is to intensify the production of grain crops in order to increase productivity and product quality [1][2][3]. In this regard, the use of innovative geoinformation technologies is of particular importance: satellite navigation systems, drones, and differentiated fertilization [4,5].…”

Optimization of the production of varieties of grain crops using a satellite navigation system in the forest-steppe of the Priobye region

“…Зерновые культуры являются основным компонентом растениеводства. Современная технология их производства базируется на использовании инновационных сортов интенсивного типа; оптимальном чередовании культур; дифференцированной обработке почвы; системе удобрений с учётом эффективного плодородия почвы, коэффициентов использования элементов питания из почвы и удобрений, выноса их с урожаем, а также системе интегрированной защиты растений от вредных организмов и оптимизации сроков уборки [1][2][3][4][5]. Работами ряда учёных показано, что современное растениеводство зависит как от факторов внешней среды, так и от зоны возделывания, но на 42-58% находится в зависимости от технологического оснащения хозяйства [6][7][8].…”
