Gumiton - New Organo-Mineral Complex to In-crease the Productivity of Agricultural Cultures

Abstract

Given the composition and properties of new organo-mineral complex based on peat GUMITON. The charac-teristics of peat required for the production GUMITON. Con-ducted production tests GUMITON in farms of different owner-ship forms, on different types of soils, crops and potatoes. It is shown that the use of GUMITON in the cultivation of grain crops increased the productivity of spring wheat – by 15-22%; winter wheat by 17-40%; barley – by 19.5-23%; triticale – by 13-14%. The protein content in grain of winter wheat in the pro-cessing GUMITON increased up to 2.1%; spring wheat – up to 2.1%, in triticale grain – up to 1.3% compared to untreated crops. Collection of triticale protein (centner/ha) increased by 21-27%. The use of GUMITON is a highly effective method of increasing potato yield in agricultural technologies. The use of GUMITON allowes to increase the yield by 12-36% and to obtain an addi-tional crop of potato tubers on floodplain soil up to 5.7 t/ha, on soddy-podzolic soil - up to 9.8 t/ha; and on gray forest soil – up to 10.0 t/ha, depending on the variety.
