METHOD OF PLANT ROOT SYSTEM FIXATION Russian patent published in 2025 - IPC A01G23/00 E02D17/20 

FIELD: ecology.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to environmental protection and can be used to protect slopes, sandy steppes from water and wind erosion. Method of fixing the root system of plants consists in the fact that a pit is dug into which a gabion in the form of a truncated cone from a net is inserted and filled with stones to a height h₁.Dimensions of the gabion are determined from the condition of equality of the weight of the planted plant and the weight of the gabion by formula

, where m₁ is the weight of the planted plant, m₁ = 5 ÷ 20 kN; m₂ is gabion weight; r₁ is the gabion lower base radius; r₂ is the gabion upper base radius; h₁ + h₂ is gabion height; h₁ is height of gabion filled with stone; h₂ is height of hollow part of gabion for fixation of root system; ρ is gabion specific weight, ρ = 15,000 ÷ 20,000 N/m³; π = 3.14. Root system of the planted plant is inserted into the remaining hollow part of the net space with powder and fertile soil compaction.

EFFECT: invention provides higher efficiency of plant root system fixation.
