METHOD OF SOWING VARIETIES-ALTERNATES OF SPIKED CROPS Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC A01C1/00 A01C7/00 A01B79/02 

FIELD: agriculture.

SUBSTANCE: method comprises soil treatment, the use of crop rotation of spring spiked crops, presowing treatment of seeds and sowing in spring in time of sowing the spring spiked crops. The seeds are moistened, bringing the moisture content of the seeds to 45-50% of their mass, held at a temperature of +5°÷15°C for 1.5-2.0 days. Then, at a temperature in the range of -3°÷5°C for 20 days, allowing for short-term periods of up to 12 hours of fluctuations in temperature in the range of +5° to -30°C. Then, the seeds are stored prior to planting at a temperature of 0°÷5°C, and planted with a decreased seeding rate in the range of 100-200 kg/ha. The presowing treatment of seeds is started with the selection of germinable seeds.

EFFECT: complete use of seed resource by eliminating crop losses from freezing in the field in winter season when sowing in time of sowing the winter spiked crops and to increase yields when sowing in time of sowing spring spiked crops.
