CONTROL OF QUANTITY OF WEEDS IN SOWING OF CORN
Okrushko Svetlana Evgenivna - Candidate of Agricultural Sciences (PhD), Senior Lecturer of the Department of Botany, Genetics and Plant Protection of Vinnitsia National Agrarian University (210083, Vinnitsia, Soniachna Str.3, e-mail: osy@vsau.vin.ua).
It was established that in the agrophytocenosis of corn on the control variant (without introducing herbicides) a mixed type of debris was formed, in which a group of late spring weeds prevailed.
After the introduction of the soil herbicide Adengo 465 (0.5 l / ha) on the sowing of maize weeds were 92% less compared to the contamination of the control experiment, where the chemical method was not used.
The combination of the use of the soil herbicide Adengo 465 (0.35 l / ha) and the insurance herbicide Master Power (1.25 l / ha in the 4-5 leaf phase of the crop) in the agrophytocenosis of corn provided the qualitative control of the main weed species. At the time of harvesting in corn crops there were 97% less weeds compared with the control variant. The combined use of these herbicides has provided a high increase in the yield of corn grain - 4.8 t / ha.
