FIELD: agriculture.
SUBSTANCE: method of increase in crop productivity consists in that planting is carried out in wet soil, which is in waterlogged and/or slurry state, possibly in the rain, just after the rain or immediately after the melting of the snow cover. The speed of motion of the sowing unit is set as 1-60 km/h. As a power device of the sowing unit a transport and technological means are used, capable of operating at a pressure on soil from 0.4 kgf/cm2 or less, down to zero. Such means are "Bars UTES 271" on the elastic tyre-casings or a device hovercraft. At that the seeds are immersed directly under the waterlogged soil layer. Immersion depth is selected from 0.2 to 15 cm.
EFFECT: increased productivity of crops while reducing its costs and increasing ecological compatibility of the process.
