REPORT on a theme "Demonstration tests of EDAGUM®SМ on winter wheat plants under conditions of Octyabrijskij district of Rostov area", Don State Agrarian University, 2007. The field experiment was carried out on winter wheat plants (cultivar Albatross Odesskij) on chernozem soil, with bare fallow as forecrop. The treatments were as follows: 1. Control; 2. Control + preplanting seeds treatment with EDAGUM®SМ, 30 ml per ton (background); 3. Background + treatment of vegetating plants with EDAGUM®SМ, 0.5 l/ha during tillering phase; 4. Background + 0.5 l/ha of EDAGUM®SМ during tillering phase + 0.5 l/ha of EDAGUM®SМ during earing phase.

Results:

1. Application of EDAGUM®SМ promoted an increase of winter wheat yield.

2. Preplanting seeds treatment with EDAGUM®SМ improved wheat overwintering, and increased its productive tilling capacity on 4-5%.

3. Under the action of early foliar fertilizing the yield of wheat increased on 26.8 %.

4. The greatest increase of wheat yield (on 29.1%) was at a combination of EDAGUM®SМ applicationin all terms.

5. Treatment of wheat by fertilizer EDAGUM®SМ promoted an improvement of grain quality: the fibrin content increased on 4.1%.

6. The application of EDAGUM®SМ is economically reasonable. Relative net proceeds for all treatments achieved 6828 rub/ha (185.69 EUR/ha).

It is recommended to add application of EDAGUM®SМ into the system of winter wheat fertilization under the conditions of Rostov area.

 

In 2008 Open Society "MAYAK" has tested fertilizer EDAGUM®SМ in>on winter wheat (breed Concurent) with peas as forecrop. The square of field trial was 50 hectares, with 24 hectares as control. Sowing date was 28.09.07, the basic fertilizers were nitroammophos 16:16:16 (200 kg/hectare), and ammonium nitrate (150 kg/hectare).

Experimental design:

1) Control: NPK; 2) EDAGUM®SМ 0.5 l/hectare + herbicides (Artstar, Dianal, Oxapal) at tillering phase; 3) EDAGUM®SМ 0.5 l/hectare + fungicides at earing phase.

Results: Fertilizer EDAGUM®SМ applied as foliar spray at tillering phase increased productive tillering capacity, and the grain yield per plant. Yield of winter wheat considerably increased under an influence of two feedings by EDAGUM®SМ: an increase in yield was 5.23 centner/hectare (9.2% to the control).

Influence of late foliar feeding by EDAGUM®SМ on yield quality demonstrated its advantage: content of gluten in grain increased on 3% to the control.

Significant influence of fertilizer EDAGUM®SМ on winter wheat yield and its low application rates conditioned high economic efficiency of EDAGUM®SМ

Conclusions:

1. Application of fertilizer EDAGUM®SМ promoted increase of winter wheat yield.

2. Foliar feedings at tillering and earing phases (0.5 l/hectare) increased yield and grain quality of winter wheat.

3. The combination of seeds treatment and foliar feedings gives opportunity to achieve the maximum effectivity from application of fertilizer EDAGUM®SМ.

 

In 2007 farm «Chigarevo» (Kursk area) tested fertilizer EDAGUM®SМ on winter wheat (breed Moscovskaya-39). Fertilizer EDAGUM®SМ was applied for seeds treatment in a rate 0.2 l/ton of seeds; at herbicides treatment fertilizer (0.5 l/hectares) it was added together with herbicides and microfertilizers (Aquarin, 2 kg/hectare) in a mixture. At joint application no clogging of nozzles was observed, fertilizer was not preliminary filtered; no fungicide treatment was done.

As a result of fertilizer EDAGUM®SМ application a negative influence of "chemical stress» on plants due to using of pesticides has decreased, seed ground germination capacity increased, plant growth and development enhanced, uptake of nutrients increased, level of plant diseases decreased on 25-30% in comparison to control. During spring frosts less leaf damage was observed, their faster growth, besides the yield increased on 4-5 ts/hectare, and gluten content raised on 2%.

 

In 2006-2007 farm «Malyshev» (Kursk area) tested fertilizer EDAGUM®SM on winter wheat (breed Moscovskaya-39). Fertilizer was applied in the farm during 2 years. Seeds were treated with fertilizer EDAGUM®SM before sowing(0.2 l/ton of seeds), at herbicides treatment EDAGUM®SМ was added together with herbicides in a mixture. As a result of fertilizer EDAGUM®SМ application seed ground germination capacity increased, plant growth and development enhanced. Wheat yield increased on 3-4 centner/hectares, gluten content increased on 3% which allowed to shift wheat from existing category to a higher one.

 

REPORT about field industrial tests of EDAGUM®SM product as a regulator of plants growth and development on wheat plants in Andizhan area of Republic of Uzbekistan, Institute of Genetics and Experimental Plant Biology, 2008, at Zangiatinsky area and at Kurgantepinsky area.

The results of field trials on studying the influence of double spraying of wheat plants by EDAGUM®SM, carried out in Andizhan area, testify its stimulating influence on further development of crops.

Double spraying of vegetating wheat plants (cultivar Moskvich) by EDAGUM®SM during tillering phase and repeatedly in booting phase (in a rate 450 ml/ha in each term of treatment) stimulates productive stalks formation, increases weight of 1000 grains and weight of grains in an ear, that promotes obtaining an additional grain yield at a rate of 3.5 centner/ha or 9.0% to the control. On the basis of the data obtained it is recommended to include EDAGUM®SM>into the "List of pesticides and agrochemicals, allowed for application in agriculture of Republic of Uzbekistan" as stimulator of plant growth and development promoting an increase of plant productivity.

Double spraying of vegetating wheat plants (cultivar Kroshka) by EDAGUM®SM (per 450 ml/ha in each term of treatment) gives a positive influence on the further development of plants. Application of EDAGUM®SM>during tillering phase and repeatedly in booting phase stimulates productive stalks formation (on 18.0 pieces/m2), increases weight of 1000 grains and weight of grains in an ear, that promotes obtaining of an additional grain yield at a rate of 4.4 centners/ha or 10.8% to the control.

On the basis of the data obtained it is recommended to include a preparation EDAGUM®SM into the "List of pesticides and agrochemicals, allowed for application in agriculture of Republic of Uzbekistan" as stimulator of plant growth and development

RESEARCH INSTITUTE OF AGRICULTURE, TURKMEN AGRICULTURAL UNIVERSITY named after SA Niyazov tested the effectiveness of fertilizer EDAGUM®SM on winter wheat in farms of different velayats of Turkmenistan: Akhal (southern Turkmenistan) Dashogus (north), Maryi (south-east) and Lebapski (east) in 2009. On each farm winter wheat was treated with fertilizer EDAGUM®SM on the area not less than 25 hectares.

As a result of a single spraying of winter wheat plants with EDAGUM®SM (0.4 l/ha) the yield increased by 3.5-4.2 t/ha (9-11%), gluten content in grain increased by 5%, the level of diseases decreased by 25-30%. The maximum effect was observed when using fertilizer EDAGUM®SM in a tank mix with insecticides: the yield gain was 4.9-5.8 kg / ha (13.5-15.8%).

It was found that EDAGUM®SM removed stress from plant protection products application, was technically easy to use, and allowed to avoid additional costs on application and to improve the economic efficiency of winter wheat protection system.

In 2010 Ltd. "AGROSOYUZ - Kuban" conducted field tests of  humic fertilizer EDAGUM®CM  on winter wheat on the farms of Krasnodar region (farm "Zhuchenko", farm "Ivan Panin", farm "Kolos", Rice-breeding factory "Krasnoarmeisky"). It is established that the application of humic fertilizer promoted additional grain yield from 6.8 to 10.3 dt/ha (16.3 - 17.9%).

In 2008 Open Company «Finansagro» tested fertilizer EDAGUM®SM on spring wheat (breed Duet) in Chelyabinsk area.

Experimental design: 1) Control (background): seed protectant Tebu-60 (0.4 l/ton) + Fenisan (0.2 l/hectare) + N50P50K50; 2) Background + EDAGUM®SM 0.22 l/hectare before sowing; 3) Background + EDAGUM®SM 0.22 l/hectare before sowing + EDAGUM®SM 0.45 l/hectare in tillering – leaf-tube formation phase.
