Well-rotted manure

Composted manure is traditionally considered a fundamental element in the system of increasing soil fertility. Its use is aimed at enriching substrates with organic matter, which serves as the basis for the comprehensive nutrition of agricultural crops. The application of this fertilizer requires an understanding of the agrochemical processes occurring in the soil and taking into account the individual needs of plants — from vegetable and floral crops to sugar beet. Optimizing mineral nutrition is impossible without a competent combination of organics and fertilizers that ensure a balance between yield and the quality of the final product.

This selection of materials combines theoretical knowledge and practical recommendations necessary for developing effective fertilizer systems. Readers will find information here on the history of the development of the domestic agrochemical school, methods of precise analysis of greenhouse substrates, and the physiological requirements of various crops regarding soil conditions. The presented articles will help to better understand the mechanisms of the impact of nutrients on plant growth, as well as to master methods of fertility regulation based on the data of agrochemical science and years of experience in applying fertilizers in field and greenhouse conditions.

Optimizing mineral nutrition of vegetable crops and potatoes

To increase the yield and quality of vegetables, it is necessary to regulate the composition of fertilizer depending on the biology of a specific crop and soil conditions. The article provides information on the chemical composition of vegetable plants and potatoes, which is important for the proper management of agricultural crop nutrition
