The effect of soil salinization and pre-sowing seed treatment with silicon-containing micronutrient fertilizer on barley seedlings

Abstract

In order to develop ecologically safe technologies to improve the adaptation of plants to different stress conditions, the impact of seed treatment of varieties of two-handed barley Storm and winter barley Valery tested with SCM-H (silicon-containing chelate humic microfertilizer) is investigated on the condition of plants grown in soil with different levels of salinity. The concentrations of the preparation SCM-H with positive effect on the survival and bioproductivity of plants of barley varieties under investigation in the early stages of development and their resistance to the stress of salinization have been shown.
