Medvedyev E. Influence of processing methods and fertilizers on fertility indicators of ordinary black soil and crop yields of a grain-steam-tilled crop rotation link in conditions of the northern Steppe of Ukraine

In the dissertation is shown the influence of processing methods and fertilizers on agrophysical, agrochemical, microbiological indicators, humus content in ordinary heavy loamy black soil, weeds in crops, crop yield and grain quality of cultures of a grain-steam-tilled crop rotation link: winter wheat after corn MWR (milk-wax ripeness) – peas – winter wheat in the northern Steppe of Ukraine. The economic efficiency of their cultivation is established. Loosening without dumps leads to better preservation of the water-resistant structure of chernozem. There were no significant differences in the effect of the main cultivation methods on the bulk density of the soil in a layer of 0–30 cm of a link of crop rotation in spring and during harvesting. It was established that of loosening without dump contributed to a decrease in water consumption for unproductive evaporation in the conditions of frequently repeated dry events.
