ВЛИЯНИЕ НЕФТЯНОГО ЗАГРЯЗНЕНИЯ СЕРОЙ ЛЕСНОЙ ПОЧВЫ НА УРОЖАЙНОСТЬ ЯРОВОГО РАПСА

Abstract

The purpose of the research is increasing the yield of spring rape in the Tatarstan pre-Kama zone. Soil pollution affects food safety both by reducing plant performance and yield class. Oil and petrochemicals are common con-tamination sources of environment. The work is devoted to the assessment of the impact of oil pollution of the soil on the yield of spring rapeseed. The study was conducted on the experimental field of the Department of «Agro-chemistry and Soil Science» of the Kazan State Agrarian University, located in the pre-Kama zone of Tatarstan. The experimental site is presented by gray forest medium loamy soil, which is the predominant difference for this zone. The area unpolluted soil was characterized by a low content of humus and a weak acidic medium, high con-centration of phosphorus and potassium active forms. The soil was purposely contaminated with commercial crude oil by spreading over the surface at the rate of 10, 20 and 40 l/m2. These levels of soil pollution, as shown by previ-ous studies, were estimated, respectively, as low, medium and high. A close positive correlation was established between the yield of spring rapeseed and the limitation of soil contamination (R2=0.763÷0.940). Mechanical soil treatment, liming, application of mineral fertilizers and Baikal EM-1 biologics was tested for recultivation. The yield of oilseeds of spring rapeseed was closely correlated with the level of single contamination of gray forest soil with commercial crude oil for at least 15 years. Obtaining the maximum yield of spring rapeseed on oil-polluted gray forest soil was provided by comprehensive application of soil loosening, liming and application of full mineral ferti-lizer.
