The purpose of the research was to study the effect of mineral fertilizers and plant protection system on the vegetation index NDVI and its seasonal dynamics in agrocenoses of spring barley with overseeding of perennial grasses in the North-West of Russia. The data obtained indicate that against the background of the deficiency of the main elements of mineral nutrition in the second half of the growing season of spring barley, a significant phytomass of perennial grasses is formed in the crop, which account for 36.7%. This leads to a smaller decrease in the NDVI index (by 0.06) than in the fertilized variants (0.20). The value of NDVI index reflects not only the state of cultivated plants and weed infestation of crops, but also the level of development of crops, growing under vegetation. The influence of mineral nutrition developed during the period of maximum values of the index, which were recorded 6-8 weeks from the sowing date and 26-30 weeks from the beginning of the year. Under the influence of average doses of fertilizers, the NDVI index increased by 0.09...0.2 (on average 0.13), under the influence of high doses – by 0.13...0.26 (on average 0.18). The influence of plant protection system was expressed by a decrease in the phytomass of weeds (by 49.4...68.9%), at the same time the mass of spring barley and perennial grasses increased (by 1.7...18.5% and by 11.7...43.5% respectively). Carrying out the whole complex of protective measures led to a decrease in the NDVI index values by 0.01...0.06, depending on the phytosanitary situation in the agrocenosis. The most reliable forecast of the yield of spring barley can be implemented in the period from 5 to 7 weeks from the beginning of the emergence of barley shoots, especially against the background of the use of plant protection products that eliminate the influence of harmful organisms on the formation of the crop and the optical properties of crops

<p>The paper describes the influence of long term (more than 30 years) fertilizer application to the changes of soil properties and identifies the influence of different fertilization rates to phosphorus, potassium, calcium and magnesium accumulation in soil.</p><p>The research has been carried out at the Research Institute of Agriculture of Latvian University of Agriculture in the long-term subsurface drainage field established in Skrīveri in 1981 under the guidance of professor J. Štikāns.  The long-term drainage field was established in the uncultivated gleyic sod-podzolic <em>Hypostagnic</em> <em>Endogleyic Albeluvisol (Hypereutric), stw-ng-AB(he) </em>loam that had not been used in agriculture for 20 years before. The experimental field was established with four rates of mineral fertilizers: without fertilizers, N45P30K45; N90P60K90 N135P90K135 calculated in form of P<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5</sub> and K<sub>2</sub>O. Since 1994 a seven-year crop rotation has been organized: 1) winter triticale, 2) potatoes, 3) spring wheat, 4) spring oilseed rape, 5) spring barley + perennial grasses (red clover, timothy), 6) perennial grasses, 1st year of using, and 7) perennial grasses 2nd year of using. Mineral fertilizers were applied according to the anticipated rates of plant nutrient elements annually during the cultivation of soil before sowing. For winter cultivars the phosphorus as superphosphate and potassium as potassium chloride fertilizers were cultivated before the sowing in autumn and nitrogen in form of ammonium nitrate was applied the next spring at the beginning of vegetation and at the stage of tillering. During the vegetation period all the required common agro-technical measures were taken – treatment with herbicides, fungicides and insecticides.</p><p>After 32 years of trial similar soil parameters showed significantly different content of nutrients related to the different level of fertilizer application. On a low background of fertilizers (N45P30K45) a small increase of mobile phosphorus in soil has only been observed in recent years. At the fertilizer rate N90P60K90 the content of available phosphorus and potassium in soil gradually begins to grow. Fertilization norm N135P90K135 caused a constant accumulation of nutrients in soil. In 30 years’ time the content of exchangeable phosphorus (calcium lactate – extractable) has increased more than 20 times (from 9 till 184 mg P<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5</sub> kg<sup>-1</sup>) and exchangeable potassium (calcium lactate – extractable) has increased more than 4 times (from 64 till 223 mg K<sub>2</sub>O kg<sup>-1</sup>). There were no relation between different fertilizing rates and calcium and magnesium content in soil observed.</p><p> </p>

Two-factor field experiment was carried out at the research and training station of Ivanovo State Agricultural Academy in 2015-2017. The aim of the research was to establish cooperation effect of various biological products and modified mineral fertilizers on the productivity of spring barley with additional sowing of perennial grasses. As a result of the studies, it was found that the highest average yield of barley grain - 2.13 t / ha, was revealed in the conditions of timothy grass additional sowing as a sub-cover crop. At the same time, the combination of biological preparations Mizorin + Rizoagrin proved to be most effective; on average, the yield of grain and straw with this combination was 2.33 t / ha and 3.42 t / ha, respectively. When choosing meadow clover as a sub-cover crop, the maximum data on grain and barley straw yields of 2.92 t / ha and 4.26 t / ha, respectively, were obtained from the use of combination of biological products Mycorrhiza + Rizoagrin on the background of modified fertilizers. Under conditions of sowing a mixture of clover and timothy, the highest yields of grain and barley straw were 2.94 t / ha and 4.29 t / ha, respectively, obtained from the use of the biological product Rizoagrin on the background of modified fertilizers. In the course of the field experiment, positive data on additional income and profitability were obtained on most options, which were maximal in the conditions of replanting a mixture of herbs. Moreover, the largest value of the additional conditionally net income is 21.2 thousand rubles obtained from the use ofpreparation Rizoagrin on the background of modified fertilizers. And the highest profitability is 91.8 % in the absence of presowing treatment of seeds.

В статье представлены результаты изучения экономической и энергетической эффективности возделывания многолетних трав сенокосного и пастбищного использования. С 2007 по 2012 год проведено изучение продуктивности и экономической эффективности возделывания многолетних трав сенокосного использования в лесостепной зоне, коренное улучшение естественных кормовых угодий с 2011 по 2016 год — в южной лесостепи Западной Сибири. Продуктивность и рентабельность производства многолетних трав сенокосного использования с применением минеральных удобрений в лесостепной зоне наиболее высокими были у люцерны и составили 3,2 т/га корм. ед. и 190% соответственно при затратах 8,8 тыс. руб./га. Выход энергии — 43 ГДж/га, энергетический коэффициент (отношение величины выхода продукции к затраченной энергии) — 8,1. Коренное улучшение лугов с применением минеральных удобрений обеспечило получение 0,8 т/га корм. ед. при затратах 4,1 тыс. руб./га, рентабельность составила 56%. Продуктивность естественных угодий при коренном улучшении с использованием органических удобрений — 0,9 т/га корм. ед., рентабельность — 278% при затратах 1,9 тыс. руб./га. Выход энергии с использованием минеральных удобрений — 9,1 ГДж/га, энергетический коэффициент — 1,9, на фоне органических удобрений — соответственно 10,2 ГДж/га и 3,4. Внесение органических удобрений один раз в 5 лет способствовало существенному снижению затрат при коренном улучшении лугов и значительному повышению рентабельности производства. На основании полученных результатов можно заключить: рентабельность производства многолетних трав достаточно высокая, особенно при использовании органических удобрений. Поэтому в хозяйствах с экстенсивными технологиями многолетние травы должны составлять основу кормопроизводства. This article reports on economic and energy efficiencies of perennial grasses cultivated in pastures and haylands. Experiments on hay production took place in the forest-steppe in 2007–2012. Optimization of natural forage lands was conducted in 2011–2016. Alfalfa had the highest hay productivity and economic efficiency under mineral nutrition yielding 3.2 t ha-1 of feed units. Payback amounted to 190%, production costs — 8.8 thousand rubles ha-1. Energy yield reached 43 GJ ha-1, energy coefficient (yield-to-energy ratio) — 8.1. Mineral fertilizers led to the yield of feed units of 0.8 t ha-1, costs of 4.1 thousand rubles ha-1, and profitability of 56%. Under organic fertilization natural forage lands produced 0.9 t ha-1 of feed units, profitability reached 278% while costs — 1.9 thousand rubles ha-1. On the background of mineral nutrition energy yield amounted to 9.1 GJ ha-1, energy coefficient — 1.9, on the background of organic nutrition — 10.2 GJ ha-1 and 3.4, respectively. Organic fertilization once in 5 years significantly reduced costs and increased profitability. Production of perennial crops resulted in high payback, particularly under the application of organic fertilizers. Therefore, farms applying extensive cultivation practices should widely grow perennial grasses.
