Abstract

This article is devoted to the study of the effect of nitrate nitrogen content in the soil on its biological activity on crops cultivated in the system of six-field crop rotation and mono-crops, as well as the effect of nitrate nitrogen and soil bioactivity on the yield of field crops (corn for silage, peas, millet and barley) in crop rotations and mono-crops. Field experiments were carried out on a long-term plot and the results are objective from the point of view of the data on the yield of field crops, soil bioactivity and the content of nitrate nitrogen on the crops were obtained in various weather conditions, including suitable and very dry years. Very dry years are considered when the hydrothermal index is 0.6 or less, they accounted for 68% of the total number of research years. The question of the forecrop influence and the nutritional background on the field crop yield, the content of nitrate nitrogen and the biological activity of the soil is considered. The lowest biological activity of the soil is noted in the variant with permanent barley sowing on unfertilized background - 6.0 %, on fertilized background - 6.1%. As a result of the research, it was found that the yield of corn for silage is higher in mono-crops compared to crop rotation. Millet slightly reacts to application of mineral fertilizers, and when cultivated in monoculture, it reduces yield. The usage of mineral fertilizers increases the content of nitrate nitrogen and the biological activity of the soil in all variants of the experiment.
