Abstract

Studies aimed at studying the fertility indicators of the arable layer of the soil depending on the use of green manure fumes in potato cultivation were carried out in a stationary experiment (2014-2016) based on the Yakutsk Research Institute of Agriculture. Three types of sideral vapors were taken as objects of study: oats for plowing - potatoes - potatoes, sweet clover - clover for plowing-potatoes, peaoats mixture for plowing - potatoes - potatoes, potatoes for potatoes, and two layers of soil: 0-10 cm and 10-20 cm. As a control option was used in the cultivation of potatoes in monoculture. It was revealed that the inclusion of green manure crops in the crop rotation link has a positive effect on the phosphate and potash regimes of the soil. The content of humus in a layer of 0-10 cm of soil increases with the cultivation of potatoes after green manure crops, both in a layer of 0-10 cm and in a layer of 10-20 cm. When growing potatoes in a monoculture, the difference is 0.16% in a layer of 0-10 cm and 0.27% in a layer of 10-20 cm. Thus, cultivation of potatoes with the inclusion of green manure crops forms an arable layer with an upper location of the fertile horizon. In the layer of 10-20 cm, there is a decrease in the content of mobile phosphorus and exchangeable potassium and their degree of mobility, as well as the content of humic substances and the biological activity of the soil.
