Pesticide load reduction
HERBICIDE ACTION ENHANCER
The research has been made at the Zabolotny Microbiology and Virology Institute, NAS, Ukraine, 2016
Field Results
Earn on saving expensive pesticides more than 30 farms. Namely:
- Nibulon, LLC (-20% of load)
- UTS-Agroproduct, LLC (-30% of load)
- Kopani farm (-20% of load)
- Enogray, LLC (-15% of load)
- PJSC Kamenskaya (-20% of load)
- Lan farm (-33% of load)
- Priozerne farm (-20% of load)
The research was conducted in 2016-2018 on the farms in South Ukraine
Crops: winter cereals (wheat, barley), leguminous (soybeans).
Conclusions:
- It has been established that the use of LEANUM® organic fertilizer, the amount being 2 l/ha, reduces the fungicidal and herbicidal load on plants and the environment by 15-30% on average;
- Crop yields compared to the control plot do not decrease but increase by 5 – 15%;
- The use of LEANUM® organic fertilizer causes positive changes in crops vegetative development, namely, in intensifying growth, in forming strong root system including the secondary one;
- Under arid climate conditions when growing cereals in non-irrigated fields LEANUM® use helps to accumulate moisture in plants;
