The effect of zeolite on the yield and biochemical parameters of sugar beet

The article presents the results of a field experiment on the introduction of zeolites from the Tatarsko-Shatrashansky deposit of the Republic of Tatarstan for sugar beets, the Dubravka variety, on leached chernozem. The studied doses of the agromineral are 10 and 15 t/ha. The results of the study revealed the effectiveness of zeolite when embedded in soil and its effect on the productivity of sugar beet and its biochemical characteristics. An increase in crop yield was established by 1.3-1.5 t/ha. An increase in the content of nitrogen and easily hydrolyzable carbohydrates in root crops is noted - depending on the dose of zeolite, up to 0.19 and 0.7 %, respectively.
