Formation of soil microflora in Trifolium pratense’s agrocenosis depending on the method of tillage

Abstract

The biological activity of the soil was studied according to the indicators of the number of microflora on the dark gray podzolic soil of the western Forest-Steppe of Ukraine. The influence of the methods of tillage on the course of biological processes under Trifolium pratense is clarified. The relationship between the quantitative characteristics of the microbial grouping of soil agrocenosis of the culture, its biological activity and methods of tillage. It was found that the largest number of microorganisms was observed in the variants of combined tillage. Over the years of research, the highest yield of hay was obtained by the Combined tillage (124.5 c / ha), the lowest - by chisel tillage (106.5 c / ha), which is due to changes in microbiological activity of the soil.
