Increase the Adaptive Potential of Dried Land in Changeable Climatic Conditions

Abstract

Based on the analysis and generalization of the data of domestic and foreign scientists and specialists, as well as the results of the authors' respective research, an assessment of the current state of changes in weather and climatic conditions in the Polesie zone and their impact on agricultural production, fertility, and moisture supply of soil; the conditions of functioning of water management and reclamation facilities, the natural and reclamation state of the drained lands was also given. The general recommendations for the development of adaptive organizational and economic, operational, agrotechnical, construction, and project activities that have their own clear goals and are closely interrelated were considered. On this basis, a complex of adaptive agromeliorative, agrotechnical and hydrotechnical, measures has been developed and proposed, aimed at a gradual transition to the cultivation of new varieties and types of agricultural crops, effective regulation of the water regime of drained lands and the functioning of drainage systems in variable climatic conditions.
