Description
Investigations on the effect of anhydrous ammonia and nitrifying inhibitor on qualitative and quantitative indices of stand formation have been carried out during 4 years in the irrigated pasture with grass stand established on the drylands with sod-podzolic soils. The positive effect of anhydrous ammonia on pasture productivity had been determined: on an average for 4 years dry matter yield increased compared to PK by 1.6 times and protein - by 2.2 times. When applying anhydrous ammonia together with nitrifying inhibitor dry matter yield increased by 1.9 times compared to PK by 16 % relative to NH3PK, protein - by 2.7 times and by 24%, respectively. Under the influence of nitrifying inhibitor payback of ammonia by yield gain rose from 15.4 to 21.7 kg of dry matter and from 3.9 to 5.6 kg of protein per 1 kg of nitrogen. Systematical applying of anhydrous ammonia in combination with complete mineral fertilizers enriched the pasture forage with protein and prolonged the duration of the production period of sown grasses.
