Wheat yield increases in Batken by 25% due to new biostimulants

Bishkek, Aug. 13, 2018 / Kabar /. The yield increased by 25% in the seed farms of Batken oblast during the experiment with new biological stimulants, the Ministry of Agriculture, Food Industry and Land Reclamation of Kyrgyzstan reported.

In October 2017, in order to increase the production of ecologically clean agricultural products, as an experiment two sites (5 and 9 hectares) were planted with winter wheat using a biological stimulator named bio-lignin. These stimulants should help to improve the quality of the crop and resistance to unfavorable conditions.

In the seed farm "Kyrgyzstan" of the Kadamjai region, the wheat germination rose 10 days earlier. And the germination capacity of wheat was 75% higher than in the control field. The yield of wheat, where bio-lignin was used, was 45.6 cwt / ha, which is more by 25%.

In the "Kyzyl Dan" farm in Batken region, the yield of wheat with bio-lignin was 50.9 cwt / ha, that is, 17% more than the yield of wheat in the control field. In addition, bio-lignin favorably influenced the increase in the quality of wheat.
