BIOTECHNOLOGY OF FODDER CROPS CULTIVATION

 

    It allows you to boost the yield and quality of fodder without increasing its content of nitrates which, going through the digestive system of cattle, are transformed into harmful nitrites; all this is possible thanks to the BIOTECHNOLOGY of producing annual and perennial fodder crops developed by Russia specialists.



     The biotechnology, thanks to: 1) activization of nitrogen extraction from ambient air, by rhiso-bacteria, 2) transformation of total unavailable forms of phosphorus, potassium and microelements into forms easily consumable by plants, 3) release of natural antibiotics and growth stimulators – helps provide a comprehensive balanced plant nutrition and protection from disease at each phase of their growth and development, as contrasted with the disjointed, non-concerted interventions only possible with conventional technologies.

Benefits of THE BIOTECHNOLOGY

Seed treatment: fast rooting and growth of plants at the earliest development phases.

  •  formation of large amounts of secondary roots that carry rhiso-bacteria – in cereals, and tubercles – in legumes.
  • formation of multiple root fibrils on plants’ root system, these fibrils work in a capillary way to provide additional moist to the plant in dry climates;
  • larger diameter of the tillering node in grasses and of the root neck in legumes;
  • better bushiness in annual fodder cereals and better tillering in fodder grain legumes;
  • suppression of pathogenic microflora on roots and inside the tissues of fodder plants.
  

Plant spraying after vegetation: fast recovery of soil fertility on forage grasslands:

  • 150%-boost of sprouting of grasses and annual Winter cereals in Spring, a 5-7 days faster appearance of leaf apparatus; 
  • better aftergrowth of fodder crops after mowing: yield increase of 15-30 centners per hectare and 5-10 days faster; 
  •  suppression of pathogenic fungi that produce mycotoxine.
  

Full cycle of treatments/dressings: stable yield and higher quality of fodder crops:

  • lower content of nitrates: 3-4 times less if compared with fertilizers;
  • 1.0-2.0 MJ/kg more metabolic energy in dry weight;
  • 3-10 g more of raw protein per 1 kg of herbage;
  • 2-5 g more sugar per 1 kg of herbage;
  • guaranteed yield in drought weather (50-100 mm of rain) at the rate of 150-200 centners per hectare, in years of favourable climatic conditions – up to 500 centners per hectare, without any fertilizers.
