EFFICIENCY OF ZUCCHINI CULTIVATION IN VARIOUS FARMING SYSTEMS ON THE SOD-PODZOLIC HIGHLY CULTURED LOAMY SOIL

Full Text:

Abstract

It was found that on highly fertile sod-podzolic loamy soil under organic farming system on the background of buckwheat straw plowing the yield of zucchini amounted to 88.3 t/ha. The significant yield increase compared to the background (24,3 t/ha, or 28 %) was obtained with the application of 40 t/ha cattle manure. Average yield of zucchini 112,5 t/ha ensured the lowest losses of proceeding in cash (706 USD) in comparison with the traditional technology. On the average maintenance of nitrates in the zucchini grown in the organic system of agriculture was on 27 % below, than in traditional.
