Exposure of maize bioagrocenoses to diseases at no-till

The yield and quality of corn grain is significantly affected by the infection of plants with diseases of agricultural crops. The susceptibility of corn bioagrocenoses of hybrids ROSS 145 MV, ROSS 140 SV, Povolzhsky 107 SV, Katerina SV, NC Falcon, NC Gitago and Delitop to diseases during their cultivation for grain according to traditional, minimal and no-till technology in the agro-climatic conditions of the Volga-Vyatka region was studied. In the course of research, it was found that the most common diseases of corn due to excessive moisture in the soil and high humidity during the harvest period are mildew on the cob, fusarium on the cob, root and stem rot, dust and blister smut. Under unfavorable harvesting conditions, the incidence can reach 40 %. Under favorable weather conditions, there are isolated cases of plant diseases, regardless of the cultivation technology. To protect the bioagrocenoses of corn, it is necessary to grow disease-resistant hybrids, monitor the rotation of crops in the crop rotation, apply full doses of mineral fertilizers and micronutrients, sow at the optimum time with an appropriate seeding depth, maintain a complex chemical plant protection system, starting with seed dressing. The closest to the requirements are zoned maize hybrids with a short growing season ROSS 145 MV, ROSS 140 SV, Povolzhsky 107 SV and Katerina SV.
