Studying the effect of electrohydraulically treated soil solutions on plant growth and development

Abstract

Increasing agricultural production is an important food task. In providing plants with the necessary nutrients, it is necessary to intensify by applying fertilizers or using alternative environmentally friendly methods. These include technologies that allow the conversion of nutrients into a form accessible to plants, and electrophysical technologies using high-voltage pulse discharge. This article describes the installation for creating electrohydraulic shocks. The experimental studies on the justification of the parameters of electro-hydraulic treatment of solutions and the study of the effect of treatment by solutions treated with electro-hydraulic shock on the development of crops using the example of tomato resulted in obtaining the optimal process technological parameters of the installation. They are voltage – 30 kV, discharge capacitance of the capacitor – 0.6 μF, number of pulses – 200.
