Abstract

The aim of the research was to determine the optimal dose of phosphate fertilizers on the background of the use of nitrogen-potassium fertilizers in the potato cultivation of the middle-early group of Nevskiy variety. Experiments were carried out on gray forest soil of medium loamy granulometric composition with humus content in the arable layer according to Tyurin - 3.22-3.31%, easily hydrolyzed nitrogen - 140-155 mg/kg of soil, mobile phosphorus - 142-147 mg/kg, exchangeable potassium - 138-151 kg/kg of soil. Nitrogen-potassium background and sulfur in a dose of N90K120S30 were used in the experiments. Phosphate fertilizers were applied, depending on the variant, in increasing doses - P30, P60, P90, P120 kg of active substance. The results of studies on the effect of increasing doses of phosphate fertilizers on the productivity and quality of potato tubers of Nevskiy middle-aged group of ripeness are presented. Analysis of the content’s dynamics of the mobile phosphorus in the irrigated experimental plot of gray forest soil showed that it has a good provision with a mobile form of P2O5. During the growing season on fertilized variants, its content increased with increasing dose of phosphorus and varied in the soil phase of plant development. In the process of research, it was found that fertilizers in a dose of N90K120S30 (background) increased the crop of potato tubers by an average of 4 years by 9.54 tons per hectare. Phosphate fertilizers applied in addition to the background (N90K120S30) as their dose increases from 30 to 120 kg of active substance provided an increase in yield by 1.27-6.34 tons per hectare. The main elements of the mineral nutrition of plants in different ways influenced the quality of potato tubers. The introduction of phosphate fertilizers contributed to an increase in the content of dry matter, starch and improvement in taste in tubers, while the amount of nitrates decreased. Based on the data obtained, it can be concluded that in order to improve the quality indicators of tubers, a dose of fertilizers should be applied - N90P120 K120S30.
