MANAGEMENT OF RESISTANCE OF CEREALS CROPS PLANTS TO THE LODGING

Species’ particularities of the cereals crops on resistance to lodging depending on abiotic factors are presented. Results about formation of plants’ resistance to lodging in case of growth retardants usage and cultivation on different fertilization schemes are shown. It is theoretically justified and proposed practical ways of avoiding of cereals crops plants lodging, and decreasing of the negative effect of retardants on crop performance, with introducing of new varieties, balanced usage of fertilizers, growth retardants, scientifically based norms of sowing densities with taking into account of biological particularities of the varieties.
