The problem of soil fertility under the conditions of fertilizer application and ways to solve it

Abstract

The authors of the article established, that the most vulnerable to the action of liquid forms of mineral fertilizers were structural units of higher orders. The use of mineral fertilizers led to a deterioration in the aggregate composition of the soil. Within the studied forms of mineral fertilizers, ammonia water had the greatest aggressive effect, and forms such as KAS and RSF had a strong effect after their dilution. The most stable were units measuring 0.5 mm and 3–2 mm. The maximum destructive effect was experienced by units of 7–5 mm in size
