Dependence of productivity of white lupine seeds on the foliar dressing with macro- and micronutrient fertilizers

Abstract

The paper presents the results of the studies on the determination of the effect of foliar dressings with macro- and micronutrient fertilizers on linear growth, the mass of air-dry matter of plants, leaf surface, the formation of a symbiotic apparatus and the yield of seeds of white lupine (Lupinualbus L.) in the conditions of black soils of the Central Black Earth region of the Russian Federation. The field experiments were carried out in 2018-2020 at the Department of Crop production, Breeding and Horticulture of Belgorod State Agrarian University. The object of the research is a high-intensity variety of white Degas lupine. The subject of the research is microfertilizer Aquamix-TV, potassium sulfate fertilizer (K2SO4), phosphate-potassium monophosphate fertilizer (KH2PO4). The weather during the years of the experiments was hot and dry. During the critical periods of the development of lupine plants, a moisture deficit was observed with the excess of heat. The soil cover of the experimental site was represented by a typical medium-thick low-humus heavy loamy black soil with a granulometric composition. The accounting area of the plot was 18 m2, the replication was fourfold and the placement was systematic. The experiment included six variants: control (without fertilizers), foliar dressing with Aquamix-TV micronutrient fertilizer, foliar dressing with potassium sulfate solution, foliar dressing with potassium monophosphate solution, foliar dressing with Aquamix-TV + potassium sulfate mixture and foliar dressing with Aquamix-TV + monophosphate mixture potassium. The analysis of the obtained data showed that the highest yield of seeds of white lupine variety Dega was obtained on variants with foliar dressing with micronutrient fertilizer Aquamix-TV in combination with potassium sulfate and monopotassium phosphate, which amounted to 3.52 and 3.51 t / ha, respectively, which is 0.52 and 0.51 t / ha or 17.3 and 17.1% more than the control variant.
