Shevchenko V. Biological peculiarities and effectiveness of the growing of sugar-corn from seedlings and without them in the conveyor of the corn-cods' receipt.

Object: continuous cultivation and production of sugar maize' ears at milk stage of grain. Aim: to determine the latest dates of grain maturity, the duration of production and the level of ear yield in sugar maize under different cultivation conditions. Methods: field, laboratory, biochemical, comparative, statistical. Novelty: For the first time in the conditions of the Eastern Ukraine there are estimated agrotechnical parameters for sugar maize growing as seedlings and seeds in direct and mixed sowings for ensuring a continuons growing of the produce during summer - autumn period. Results: there have been worked out some technological parameters for a continuous production of ears for consumers during summer-autumn period; there have been shown the ways for reducing moisture, energy and material costs. Application stage: Seientific work-outs are introduced on the farms in the Antratsyt, Belovodsk and Starobelsk zones of Lugansk Oblast. Application area: agroindustrial production and food industry ofUkraine.
