METHOD FOR PLANT SEED SOWING ON ARID PASTURES

摘要

FIELD: agriculture and forestry. SUBSTANCE: method involves mellowing soil strips and forming area for seed sowing; sowing grass, semi-shrub and shrub seeds on arid pastures in discrete seeding sites of moisture accumulating shape, such as spherical depression with hole made in the form of inverted truncated cone having depth of where β is solar ray incidence angle; ψ is angle of taper of hole; d is diameter of seeding hole bottom; h is spherical slot size. Such shape of seeding site prevents sown seeds embedded in soil from drying by wind and solar rays. EFFECT: provision for improved seed moistening during germination and development of seeds. 2 dwg
