Annotation. Purpose of research. Assessment of the effect of a new organic-mineral complex based on “Gumiton” peat on the yield and quality of spring and winter crops on various types of soil in the Kaluga and Rostov regions of the Russian Federation. On the basis of field experiments in farms of various forms of ownership in different soil and climatic zones of the Russian Federation, the influence of “Gumiton” on the productivity and quality of grain crops was evaluated. Method of research. Laying and conducting field experiments were carried out according to Dospekhov B. A., agrochemical indicators of soils were determined by the method of Moscow State University, after harvesting, grain quality indicators were determined (the content of raw protein, fat, ash, dry matter) according to GOST R 50817-95, statistical processing of research results was performed using the Microsoft Excel 2007 program with a 95 % level of significance of the results. Results. It was shown that the sheet processing “Gumiton” of barley plants in the phase of stooling on sod-podzolic sandy loam soil in a field experiment on the basis of Kaluga Research Institute of Agriculture has increased the crop yield by 21 % and increased protein content in grain by 2 % compared to the control. Treatment of barley plants with “Gumiton” in the stages of entering the tube and earing in experiments on gray forest medium-loamy soil on the basis of Kaluga research Institute increased the yield by 11–17 % and the protein content in the grain to 2.2 %. In production tests of “Gumiton” on sod-podzolic light-loamy soil in the Fetisov Brothers farm in the Duminichsky district of the Kaluga region, processing of oat crops during the tillering phase with “Gumiton” increased the grain yield by 18%. Processing of winter wheat crops of various varieties with the drug in the phase of release into the tube in the farm “Ageeva A. V.” of Babyninsky district and in the farm “Fetisov Brothers” of Duminichsky district of the Kaluga region increased the crop yield by 18–21 %. The treatment of crops of winter wheat of different varieties with “Gumiton” in the earing phase in dark chestnut medium loam soil in farm “Rostok” of the Oryol district of Rostov region increased crop yield by 11–15 % depending on the predecessor.

The GrassGro decision support tool was designed to quantify sheep and pasture production in response to management and climate variability in temperate Australia, and has been tested in temperate but not low-rainfall Australian conditions. Data from field experiments and from on-farm monitoring was used to test GrassGro predictions of annual and perennial pasture production, and sheep production at 4 locations throughout the Victorian Mallee, which is a low-rainfall area (275–375 mm annually). Predictions of long-term pasture production were then made. Predictions of the herbage biomass of annual pastures closely matched observed data for both a sandy loam (1991–2002 data) and a whole paddock (combining sandy loam and loam and sand) (2001–2002 data) soil type, at several locations across the Victorian Mallee. Linear regression between observed and simulated (April to September) data produced coefficients, significance and root mean square error of r2 = 0.81, P<0.001, 217 kg DM/ha, respectively, for sandy loam soil types and r2 = 0.94, P<0.001, 72 kg DM/ha, respectively, for whole paddock soil types. A series of simulations for individual years from 1970 to 2002 quantified the large impact of climate variability and demonstrated that seedbank and location, but not soil fertility, had a large influence on annual pasture production. However, GrassGro underestimated the production of the perennial pasture, lucerne (r2 = 0.2). GrassGro was also unable to adequately predict sheep production because it failed to take into account the sparse, clumpy structure of the low biomass pastures typical of this region. Methods to improve GrassGro were identified and included: (i) the need to adjust sheep intake from low biomass, sparse pastures, (ii) the ability to predict summer growing and autumn growing plant species, (iii) the ability to graze crop stubbles and (iv) refinements to the coefficients of equations used to model lucerne growth.

The aim of this work is to assess the impact of Gumiton peat-based organo-mineral complex on the productivity and quality of carrots and the transition of 137Cs from soil to root crops under conditions of radioactive contamination. According to the results of field experiments on gray forest and soddy-podzolic soils of the Kaluga region of Russia, it is shown that leaf treatment with Gumiton of carrot plantings in different phases of crop development increases the yield of root crops by 20-40%, depending on the variety, soil type and agricultural background. Analysis of studies in the growing experiment on soddy-podzolic soil showed that Gumiton treatment increases the yield of carrots by 30%. The rate of decrease of 137Cs content is 1,2-1,25 times. Gumiton is a highly effective preparation for carrots, which increases the productivity and quality of the crop and helps to reduce the intake of 137Cs in root crops in radioactively contaminated areas.

Total nonstructural carbohydrates (TNC) are important for summer recuperation from injury for cool-season turfgrass. The objectives of this study were to determine if trinexapac-ethyl (TE) [4-(cyclopropyl-a-hydroxy-methylene)-3,5-dioxo-cyclohexane-carboxylic acid ethyl ester] affects TNC content and turf quality of a creeping bentgrass at various application frequencies and rates and to investigate any interactions between the effects of TE and traffic treatments on TNC content. Field experiments were conducted in 1995 and 1996 on a mature stand of `Pennlinks' creeping bentgrass grown on a Flanagan silt loam soil maintained at a height of 1.9 cm. Treatments included a single application (0.28 kg·ha-1) or repeat applications at 2 (0.06 kg·ha-1) or 4 (one at 0.28 kg·ha-1 and one at 0.09 kg·ha-1) week intervals during the first 8 weeks of each experiment. Treatments were arranged in a strip-plot design with TE applications as whole plots and traffic treatments as strip plots. Traffic treatments began at 2 weeks and 2 days after initial applications in 1995 and 1996, respectively and continued until the last evaluation date. Traffic treatments consisted of 4 passes of a 102.2 kg smooth roller, 2 days·week-1 in 1995 and 8 passes daily in 1996. A single aqueous extraction method was used for quantification of glucose, fructose, sucrose, and fructan. TNC was the total of all analyzed fractions. Single applications of TE at 0.28 kg·ha-1 significantly reduced turf quality for 4 weeks in both experiments. Sequential applications of TE at 0.06 kg·ha-1 exhibited reduced quality compared to the control at 4 and 8 weeks in 1995 and 2 weeks in 1996. When TE was applied once at 0.28 kg·ha-1, there was a significant reduction in TNC from 4 to 8 weeks after treatment. In 1996 when TE applications were repeated at 2 and 4 week intervals at 0.06 and 0.09 kg·ha-1, a reduction of TNC from week 4 to week 14 was observed. After 14 weeks the TNC content showed incremental increases. There was no interaction effect between traffic treatments and TE applications in the verdure TNC in either year. In 1996, verdure TNC content was 6% to 17% lower in plots receiving traffic from weeks 4 to 18. These results suggest that high rates of TE, either sequential or single applications, might reduce turf quality or carbohydrate content. While this study has not examined if this is detrimental, multiple TE applications at low rates may minimize any TNC reduction while providing effective growth suppression for extended periods.

Sphagnum Bog

The present investigation is an account of the results from two fertilizing experiments established on Sphagnum bog at the Experimental Station of Leteensuo. The experiments were carried out in 1923 and 1934. The following conclusions can be drawn from the results. Most important in significance among the different nutrients is nitrogen, phosphorus ranging next, and potassium last. Potassium could even cause a reduction in the crop yields. The effect of liming was evident in the form of increased hay crops, whereas the grain yields of oats were reduced by it. Liming has improved the effect of phosphorus particularly in the case of hay. The results also seem to indicate that the relation between potassium and calcium has significance in regard to the reduction of crop yield caused by potassium. Remarkable crop yield increases were obtained by nitrogen fertilizing. The hay crops and the grain and straw crops of oats increased almost linearly with the addition of nitrogen, in the form of calcium nitrate, in quantities up to 90 kg N per hectare. Quantities in excess of this caused hardly any further increase in the crops. The said quantity is suitable for cover manuring of hay meadows, but the most advisable quantity for cereals is thought to be 45—60 kg N per hectare, so that lodging of the crops might be avoided. Nitrogen fertilization does not essentially affect the quality of the grain crops of cereals; on the other hand nitrogen promoted the retention of timothy in the meadow when nitrogen was used in quantities up to 90 kg per hectare. Stable manure increased the crops. This effect was most distinctly evident in the grain and straw crops of oats. The effect of stable manure was still present 15 years after the most recent addition of stable manure.

Set Up

According to the results of previous studies it was specified that the soils of the research areas in south of Ukraine are not provided with the optimal content of nutrients for normal growth and development of fruit crops. As a result of that, a long-term field experiment was set up, which aimed at increasing soil fertility, yield and fruit quality of intensive plantations of peach and apple trees under drip irrigation as well as at improving soil management principles. The field experiment was set up in 2009 on the perennial plantations in Kherson and Mykolaiv regions on the soils with different properties using the water of different quality when applying traditional cultivation technology in the south of Ukraine. It was observed the positive effect on the yield of perennial plants when applying the following fertilizer systems: organic-mineral ("Rost-concentrate"), mineral (N120P30-90K75-120), and organic ("Gumoplant") when irrigating with water of different quality. Thereat, the soil moisture in the layer of 0-60 cm was in the range of 75–90% of MMHC depending on the soil grading. The highest increase in peach yield (33%), in comparison with the check plot was observed on sod sandy soils in SE "DAF named after Solodukhin" in Kherson region when applying mineral fertilizers. The higher dry matter content in fruits by 2,6% and nitrate content by 29% were also observed when using mineral fertilizers on this farm. The highest yield increase up to 21,16 t/ha on dark chestnut medium loam soils in private joint stock company "Radsad" in Mykolayiv region in apple orchards was obtained when using organic-mineral fertilizers and irrigating with partially suitable water. The yield increase up to 26,81 t/ha was obtained on chornozem southern heavy loam soil in private joint stock company "Kamyanskyi" in Kherson region when irrigating with water suitable for irrigation and up to 32,62 t/ha of yield increase was obtained on dark chestnut medium loam soil in "Bilozerskyi" state farm in Kherson region when irrigating with water suitable for irrigation. Higher dry matter contents were recorded under mineral fertilizers, higher sugar content - under organic-mineral and mineral fertilizers, nitrate content under organic fertilizers. The content of nitrates under different fertilization systems for all fruit trees did not exceed the maximum concentration limit of 60 mg/kg. It was also found out that the highest effect on the yield of perennial plantations had organic-mineral fertilizers with a correlation coefficient of 0,75.The results of mathematical data processing showed that the fertilizers applied along with drip irrigation (fertigation) had a positive effect on the yield of peach and apple trees and the quality of their fruits.
