ECONOMIC EFFICIENCY OF FERTILIZER APPLICATION IN PRODUCTION TECHNOLOGIES OF UKRAINE

Abstract

The means of regulation of nutrient content in soils, nutrient intake by plants with different ratio is a system of nutrition regime. It has a radical impact on the level of supplying plants with mineral elements. But practice shows that mineral fertilizers do not solve all the problems related with the optimization of nutrition regime. During their growing season plants are under stress for quite a long time, their nutrition under such environmental conditions becomes less efficient (Jaspers and Kangasjärvi 2010). The task of a farmer is to provide suitable conditions for plants to overcome stress as fast as possible (Rady 2012, Hanserud et al 2018). There is a number of factors causing stress-reactions of plant organisms during the growing season. By the nature of impact they are divided into chemical (salts, gases, xenobiotics); biological (negative impact of pests, pathogenic agents, competition with other plants) and physical (excess or deficiency of moisture, temperature regime, light and radioactivity) (Whipps 1997, Goswami and Deka 2020)[3,pp.40-61]. Under these conditions it is necessary to apply complex multi functional fertilizers, containing mixtures of organic, humic and fulvic acids, a number of micro-elements in a chelated form in their formulation causing their fungicide action and activating microorganisms.
