The effectiveness of the introduction of promising varieties and new technology in the cultivation of common hops

Abstract

In the conditions of the middle zone of the Russian Federation, incl. the Chuvash Republic, it is possible to cultivate early, mid-early and mid-season hop varieties: Tsivil'skii, Druzhnyi; Sumer', Krylatskii, Podvyaznyi, Mikhailovskii, Favorit, Flagman, Feodal, Forvard and Fakir with a growing season of 95-120 days, with a certain ratio of bitter substances and essential oils, with the appropriate cultivation technology. On the newly restored plantations, the location of the pillar rows - 10 m, for the use of general purpose tractors, it is recommended to hold the tab of hops with 3.3 m spacing between rows, and 1.1 m in the rows between the plants. The use of autumn pruning of the main rhizomes of hops accelerates the emergence of sprouts and reduces the duration of the phases of growth and development in the spring time. The use of new technologies and innovative techniques allow reducing the cost of 123 person days in comparison with the traditional technology.
