EFFECT OF LEAF FERTILIZERS AND BIOSTIMULATORS ON PRODUCTIVITY OF WHEAT AND SUNFLOWER
Abstract
A field experiment to establish the effect of the leaf fertilizers Amalgerol Essence, Nutribio N and Trafos A-Z was conducted. Wheat and sunflower yields in a conventional cultivation scheme have been reported. As a result of the study, it was found that the yields obtained from the leaf-treated variants with the fertilizers on both crops were proven to increase their yields compared to the control variant of the conventional scheme. The products used offset and lead to increasing the yield of wheat, despite a reduction in mineral nitrogen doses of up to 50%. The biostimulators have a positive effect on productivity and improve the overall phytosanitary status of the crops. Their use enhances the sustainability of crops and guarantees high yields in ecological and organic farming.
