Bayduk M. Features of accumulative soil formation under zero tillage on chernozems of Donbass Steppe

Object - features soil formation process under influence of technologies of zero and traditional tillage of ordinary light-clay chernozem. The purpose - to determine the features of accumulative soil formation at different technologies of soil tillage and to estimate an opportunity and expediency of application of zero tillage during cultivation of field crops on chernozem ordinary light-clay with low humus content in conditions of Donbass. Methods - general scientific and special. Theoretical results - generalization of features of soil formation process development is carried out at different technologies of tillage and application of zero tillage is proved. Practical results - the technology of zero tillage at cultivation of a winter wheat and zero tillage with 100 % soil surface covering by vegetative rests at cultivation of maize is offered. Novelty - influence of zero tillage on features of accumulative soil formation process is determined and the expediency of application of zero tillage is proved during cultivation of field crops on chernozem ordinary light-clay with low humus content in conditions of Donbass. Degree of introduction - results of researches are applied in pilot farms of Donetsk institute of agroindustrial production (20 ha). Sphere - an agricultural production.
