Abstract

Winter rye is of great importance in strengthening and developing the grain economy of the Non-Chernozem region of Russia. In recent years, due to the high cost of fertilizers and plant protection products, agricultural producers have begun to pay more attention to the biologization of agriculture. One of the main means of biologizing agriculture is the use of sideration. The article presents the results of the research on the influence of pure, green-manured and occupied fallows on the growth and development of winter rye, crop contamination, soil microbiological activity and grain yield in the eastern part of the Volga- Vyatka zone. It was revealed that the weather conditions of the growing season of the Republic of Mari El allowed the cultivation of winter rye on the green-manured fallow. With timely plowing of siderite, the amount of productive moisture in the soil before sowing winter crops is sufficient. The use of sideration improves the phytosanitary state of the agrocenosis – the contamination of winter rye crops when cultivated with green-manured fallow is significantly lower in comparison with cultivation with occupied fallow. Being a valuable food and energy material for the soil microflora, the plowed organic mass of green fertilizers contributes to a significant increase in the microbiological activity of the soil. The replacement of pure and occupied fallow with green-manured fallow cultivation of winter rye on this fallow allows you to get a significant increase in grain yield.

Highlights

  • Winter rye is of great importance in strengthening and developing the grain economy of the Non-Chernozem region of Russia

  • We have studied the water regime of the soil of winter rye

  • The obtained experimental data on the study of the effect of fallow precursors on the yield of winter rye in the conditions of the eastern part of the Volga-Vyatka zone allow us to draw the following conclusions: 1. The weather conditions of the growing season of the Republic of Mari El allow the cultivation of winter rye on the green-manured fallow

Summary

Introduction

Winter rye is of great importance in strengthening and developing the grain economy of the Non-Chernozem region of Russia. The country's agriculture is experiencing a crisis, including the production of winter rye grain. One of the reasons for the instability of high crop yields in the Non-Chernozem zone of Russia is the low level of soil fertility. An important condition for obtaining high stable yields of agricultural crops is the correct choice of the predecessor. In the Non-Chernozem zone of the Russian Federation, winter rye is cultivated in crop rotations on pure, occupied and, less often, green-manured fallow, the value of which has begun to increase in recent years. As an agrotechnical technique, can become the main direction of biologization of agriculture and obtaining high yields of agricultural crops [4,5,6]
