Root top dressing is a fundamental agrotechnical practice that ensures the delivery of essential nutrients directly into the root zone of plants. A properly structured fertilizer application system is a key factor in yield management, allowing for the regulation of crop development depending on their biological characteristics and growing season phases. A competent approach to plant nutrition requires not only the selection of high-quality organic and mineral mixtures, but also an understanding of the physicochemical properties of the soil, as well as conducting preliminary agrochemical diagnostics of the substrates.
This selection contains materials covering all stages of organizing plant nutrition: from methods of analyzing soil mixtures and using ameliorants to improve soil structure to highly specialized recommendations on the application of macro- and microelements. Readers will find information here about the peculiarities of top dressing vegetable crops in greenhouses and open fields, the nuances of caring for fruit orchards, vineyards, and pastures. The articles will help to understand the mechanisms of the influence of humic acids, the specifics of using various types of fertilizers, and the rules for creating balanced nutrition programs for obtaining high and high-quality harvests.
