- The work was dedicated to the studies conducted in 2013–2018 on the southern chernozem in the Southern Steppe of Ukraine, studied the efficiency of processing spring barley crops modern growth-regulating drugs in the main periods of vegetation of the crop on the background of mineral fertilizers application.
- It was determined that the introduction of pre-sowing cultivation of spring barley fertilizer in a dose of N30P30 (background) and the use of foliar fertilizing of crops at the beginning of the phases of the spring barley stooling and earing complex organic fertilizer Escort-bio created favourable conditions for the formation of grain yield and grain quality of the studied varieties.
- The optimization of nutrition affected the grain quality indicators of the studied varieties of spring barley significantly as the maximum values of grain nature (606.2 up to 611.2 g l–1, depending on the variety) were reached by applying N30P30 before sowing and double applying of Escort-bio to the crops. The protein content in the grain and digested protein in this nutrition option was also determined to be the maximum as 12.5 up to 13.1% and 61.0 up to 63.8 g kg–1, respectively, depending on the variety.
- The high efficiency of modern growth-regulating substances application was also determined in another experiment with spring barley, in which 'Stalker' and 'Vakula' varieties were grown after peas. On average, the maximum level of grain yield of 'Stalker' varieties, over the years of research, was provided by fertilizing plants with Organic D2–M as 3.59 t ha–1, and the level of grain yield of 'Vakula' was provided by fertilizing plants with Escort-bio as 3.54 t ha–1.
