Pesticides alter the biological properties of the soil, leading to a complete loss of their fertility. Chestnut soils (meadow brown, light brown) are resistant to contamination by pesticides and by fertilizers in particular. We have carried out studies on the effect of the examined soil pollution with high doses of fertilizers and pesticides on the soil mesofauna representatives. The work is based on studying influence of anthropogenic impacts on soil biological activity in comparison with its main indicators, whi...

The paper presents the results from studies carried out in the farming conditions. It has been found that with the application of rational norms of mineral and organic fertilizers used for growing various crops (barley, rape, flax, soybean), soil fertility could be stabilized and their effectiveness enhanced. The content of mineral nitrogen under rape crops was at the level of the control variant. Its content in the variant using liquid manure (biofertilizer) was somewhat lower than that of in the rotted manure - ...
