Abstract
The article is considered the problem of oil flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) cultivation on sod-podzolic soils of the Middle Preduralie, devoted to the relevance and importance of studying the agricultural methods of oil flax cultivation in the agro-climatic conditions of the Middle Preduralie. Economic viability of flax crop cultivation for oilseeds and practical applicability of seed processing products is presented. The methods of field experiment carried out on research and experimental field of the Department of General Agriculture and Plant Protection based at the Faculty of Agricultural Technologies and Forestry, the Perm SATU, are described. The results of two-year research show the influence of pre-sowing tillage and herbicide treatment of oil flax on the yield capacity of oilseeds in the Middle Preduralie. Tendencies are noted and some analytical theses are derived.
Highlights
At present, practical science is more and more interested in the introduction of new crops and development of high agro-technologies for them
Double treatment with the «Lontrel-300» herbicide contributed to a qualitative reduce in amount of weeds, which in turn insured the yield capacity by 10.2% higher – 1.18 t/ha
Double treatment contributed to yield formation of 1.38 t/ha, which is by 30% higher than the control variant without herbicide treatment
Summary
Practical science is more and more interested in the introduction of new crops and development of high agro-technologies for them. In this regard, history of oil flax cultivation in the Ural region and the Middle Preduralie receives special attention. Oil flax is unpretentious crop in terms of cultivation conditions. Following the minimum technological and agrochemical requirements, it is produced both in the southern and northern regions in many countries of the world [1]. Modern varieties of oil flax have a stable yield, respond well to soil fertility, are drought-resistant, technologically advanced and reliable. Unlike quite complex harvesting and processing technologies of fiber flax cultivation that requires special-purpose machines, oil flax requires a simple cultivation technology and a set of agricultural machines used for the majority of cereal crops
