DIVERSIFICATION OF AGRICULTURAL CROPS, CULTIVATION TECHNOLOGY

Abstract

The diversification of agricultural crops through the introduction and integration of various agricultural practices on saline and degraded lands contributes to increasing the productivity of agricultural products, which significantly increases the income of farmers. The introduction of grain and leguminous crops into local crop rotations will reduce soil salinity and enrich them with important nutrients, as well as restore the soil structure. To date, due to developing ecological and economic situations, the issues of restoration and productivity improvement of degraded landscapes based on the use of patterns of adaptive strategy of productive potential, natural environment-forming and environment-optimizing functions of plants of different ecological specialization have not been sufficiently studied. All this requires constant attention to the environmental situation in the region and scientifically-based measures aimed at rational use, conservation and restoration of the natural potential and fertility of the soil cover.
