Abstract

Relevance of the study. Nowadays, when there is a shortage of animal protein, which can be replaced by the protein of leguminous crops, there is a tendency to revive sowing of niche leguminous crops, among which lentil is one of the first. However, the search for optimal doses of fertilizers that will provide high and constant yields remains an open question. The use of biological preparations for inoculation of lentil is also an important issue. Objective. To determine the effect of fertilization and inoculation on the formation of lentil productivity in the conditions of the right-bank forest-steppe of Ukraine. In the process of carrying out research, special methods of research were used – field and comparative calculation. The results of research on the optimization of the lentil fertilization system on the podzolized chernozem of the right-bank-forest-steppe of Ukraine are given. The effectiveness of using inoculation in combination with different doses of fertilizers is shown. It is established that lentil plants react differently to different doses of fertilizers and inoculation. An increase in yield due to inoculation is noted in the range of 8–14% compared to the same option without inoculation. Application of N60P30K40 + Mo provided the highest yield in the experiment - 2.33 t/ha, and in combination with inoculation provided an increase of 0.2 t/ha or 9% compared to the same option without inoculation
