This article presents the results of theoretical and experimental studies on the destruction of perennial rhizomatous weeds using the electric method. The biological features, vegetation, growth and development of weeds humai and pygmy beetle as an object of processing have been studied. The layout of the equipment for the installation for electropulse processing, the procedure for implementing the work process and the results of sexual research are described.
The article presents the results of research on the use of electric discharges of current for the destruction of worms, larvae and galls of pathogenic nematodes. Nematodes consisting of round worms in the process of their vital activity penetrates the roots, stems and leaves of the plant, disrupting the integrity of tissues, cells and cellular structures, feeding on plant sap leads to lagging behind growth and development, contributes to the spread of various diseases, causes rot and infection. They can be found even in fruits and seeds of plants. Most often, worms form a kind of swelling growth in the roots, in the stems in the leaves and in the fruits, the growths of which are called galls. When unfavorable conditions arise, they move at an accelerated rate in the soil, maintaining their vitality. Therefore, their destruction using well-known methods such as agro technical, thermal biological, chemical, etc. is laborious and ineffective. The article describes an alternative electro technological method for the destruction of nematodes using electric current discharges, which provides the required destruction effect at the lowest cost.
This article provides a theoretical description of the propagation of current pulses in plant tissue and the processes of destruction of cellular structures of harmful pathogens in the plant organism. Plants, from the point of view of electricity, are regarded as a well-conductive cable. The peel of the plant is the sheath of the cable, the fire (core) is the electrically conductive conductor. When infected with diseases, the growth of the cellular structure occurs and, as a result, the resistance of the plant tissue decreases. When current is applied, it passes through the circuit with the least resistance and thus provides the lethal effect of harmful microorganisms.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
