THE EFFECTIVENESS OF WATER-SOLUBLE FERTILIZERS FOR THE MAIN CROPS IN CLIMATE CHANGE

Abstract

Temperature and water regimes have changed over the past few years in Poltava in the weather conditions. So during the growing period of 2008–2012, an increase in the average temperature of 1.8 0C, an increase of 13.1% from the average long-term rates and a decrease in rainfall at 72.5 mm, or 23.2% was observed. The leading role in increasing the productivity of crops belongs to fertilizers. With the significant rise in price of energy and agrochemicals, foliar feeding by complex water-soluble fertilizers becomes particularly relevant. The use of this agro method in the left-bank forest-steppe zone of Ukraine with not persistent moisture makes it possible to increase the productivity of winter wheat by 25.8%, corn grain by 12.7%, sugar beet by 15.7%, and significantly improve the quality of products.
