The laboratory has a unique experimental base on ISSAR Experimental Field "Slobozhanske" State Enterprise, which consists of 4 stationary and a number of short-term field and production experiments in Kharkiv and Chuguev areas of Kharkiv region (total area under the experiments is about 60 ha).
Basic directions of research activities
- Standards of quality for products of natural soil fertility through the use of fertilizers for main crops in different soil and climatic zones of Ukraine.
- Information database of field experiments with fertilizers and improving methods of statistical analysis of experimental data.
- Determining the patterns of fertilization impact of varying intensity on indicators of chernozem typical fertility, crop rotation productivity and quality in the short and long term perspective.
- Soil and plant nutrition diagnostics of crops.
Main research results
Software
