METHOD FOR INCREASING STABILITY AND PRODUCTIVITY OF CROP ROTATIONS IN ARID REGIONS

摘要

FIELD: agriculture, in particular, cultivation of crops in arid and extreme arid regions on dry lands, including saline and solonetz-like soils. SUBSTANCE: method involves sowing safflower seeds to 2.5-5 cm depth at seed rate of 14-20 kg/hectare, with row spacing not exceeding 30 cm. Method allows crop rotation stability and yield in dry and semiarid lands to be increased even during years of severe or catastrophic droughts. EFFECT: increased efficiency and simplified method. 2 cl, 2 tbl, 1 ex
