Chisinau, April 4 / MOLDPRES /- Researchers of the Selection Field Crops Research Institute in Balti are urging agricultural producers to return to the practice of crop rotations, including perennial crops, including perennials, intercropped and successive.

Boris Boincean, acting head of ICCC Selection said that the cultivation of non-genetically modified soybean varieties is becoming attractive given that the state expects to compensate up to half of the cost of seed material.

At the same time, the cultivation of spring peas can and must be a common practice of accumulating biological nitrogen. Or, even at a low productivity of green mass, when its incorporation into the soil, at a hectare of land, a minimum of 100-150 kg of nitrogen is obtained. This amount fully covers the costs of seed procurement and sowing, taking into account the costs of using a similar amount of mineral nitrogen fertilizers at existing prices.

“In order to reduce the weeding of the seeds, enrich the soil with organic matter and increase the vitality of the soil, an important role is played by obtaining the allelopathic effect of successive crops, such as: mustard, autumn rye or torch, effect expressed by producing and releasing biochemical agents. which affects the development of other organisms ", Boincean said.

He announced that the ICCC Selection still has soybeans and spring peas in stock at the moment that meet the requirements of the regulations in force regarding biological quality.
