Inoculation of seed with strains of nitrogen-fixing bacteria (exampled by oats and millet)

Abstract

As a result of the conducted researches the expediency and effectiveness of pre-sowing inoculation of seeds of field crops with strains of nitrogen-fixing bacteria has been proved, which allows to increase fodder productivity of oat and pearl millet crops up to 36,8 and 18,8 %, respectively. The process of ammoniation and mineralization of organic substances is accelerated. Application of biological preparations such as Sahabaktisubtil and Mamontenok stimulates the activity of microorganisms using mineral nitrogen and accelerates the process of mineralization of organic substances in the soil.Application of mobile inoculator provides an increase in the quality of pre-sowing seed treatment in field conditions due to uniformity of seed treatment with the preparation in the form of “aerosol mist” formed by a vibrating centrifugal disc. Thus, the completeness and uniformity of treatment reaches 90% (compared to 65-75% for analogues), the speed of treatment at the same time increases.
