METHOD OF GROWING BUCKWHEAT Russian patent published in 2015 - IPC A01G1/00 A01B79/02 

FIELD: agriculture.

SUBSTANCE: method comprises pre-sowing treatment of seeds, wide-row sowing seeds to a depth of 5-6 cm with a seeding rate of 2.5-3.0 mln of germinating seeds per 1 ha, application of mineral fertilisers locally at sowing, foliar fertilising of haulm stand, bee pollination and separate harvesting. At that sowing buckwheat is started in the field in two calendar periods - the first term sowing buckwheat is carried out in late May (May 25-30), when there are good moisture reserves in the soil, the second - in early June (June 5-10), when constant warming occurs. The foliar fertilising of haulm stand is carried out at the beginning of budding with the microcrystalline fertiliser "Master". And during flowering, buckwheat is extrapollinated artificially by overlaying on the surface flowering plants and extending of for example the acrylic fabric, the lower part of which has a working part in the form of alternating rectangular notches.

EFFECT: reduction of grain losses and increase in yield.
