Abstract
Increasing of crop yields mainly caused by modern technology, use of mineral fertilizers and plant protection products. Therefore, developing of zonal agricultural technologies will ensure the rational use of soil agroclimatic potential and increase grain production profitability. Because of economic needs, the broad use of mineral fertilizers, including liquids with minor nutrient elements was applied in Altai Krai. Therefore, the justification of doses and sorts of fertilizers and minor nutrient elements is especially relevant here. The aim of our study was to increase the efficiency of granular and liquid mineral fertilizers in the cultivation of spring wheat in the steppe zone of Altai Krai. The experiment was done in LLC “Russia” in Novichikhinsky district of Altai Krai. We presents seven fertilizer variants for cultivating the spring wheat using the No-Till technology in the steppe zone of Altai region. We also assessed the quality of sowing, soil water regime, yield structure and grain quality, and presented the general patterns of crop formation and technical and economic evaluation of these fertilizer variants.
Highlights
Modern conditions for the development of agricultural production require efficiency of growing grain crops (Alexandratos, Bruinsma, 2012; Schierhorn et al, 2014; Bakaeva et al, 2019; Zimnyakov, Varlamova, 2020)
Many samples of new soil-cultivating sowing equipment of foreign and domestic production are used in Altai Krai, allowing to perform up to six operations per working pass, including the application of liquid and granular mineral fertilizers during the sowing (Belyaev, 2018)
Analysis of agricultural crops cultivation technologies revealed the influence of climatic and technological factors on the yield and quality of grain (Belyaev et al, 2017a, 2017b, 2018). This will determine the rational technologies for cultivating crops by new equipment for effective fertilization, which would significantly increase the efficiency of crop production
