METHOD OF INCREASE OF CROP YIELDS Russian patent published in 2012 - IPC A01G7/04 

FIELD: agriculture.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to agriculture. In the method organic and/or mineral fertilisers are introduced into soil, as well as natural zeolite in an amount of 2-5 t / ha; a potential difference of a constant electric field is made on the soil on the depth of the root system of plant. At that natural zeolite is injected into the ground in the form of granules 10^-3-2.5·10^-3 m in the amount of 2-5 t / ha; silica sand in powder form with particle size of 10^-4-10^-7 m in the number of 2-5 t / ha. An electrode-cathode is placed horizontally to the depth of the root system; grounded conductive mesh with holes for the stems of plants is applied to the soil surface. On a grounded conductive mesh a layer of soil is placed, rising above the grounded conductive mesh over the entire surface of the soil, except for nearwellbore part of plants, to a height which is 5-20 times less than the distance in height from the electrode-cathode to the grounded conductive mesh. A conductive mesh electrode-anode is applied on the layer of soil rising above a grounded conductive mesh. At the cathode and the anode direct current voltage is applied sufficient to create in the interelectrode space of the electric field of magnitude of 50-500 V / m. Moreover, at the anode the electric potential is applied 5-20 times smaller than at the cathode.

EFFECT: method enables to increase crop yields.
