Abstract
Background. To study the characteristics of chlorophyll accumulation, the increase in leaf surface area, and to evaluate the effectiveness of using the OMU 'Torfoprodukt' preparations on table grapes.
To study the features of chlorophyll accumulation and the increase in leaf surface area of grapevines when using organomineral fertilizers (OMF) "Torfprodukt" and to assess the effectiveness of applying products from this group. Materials and Methods.
Purpose. The article presents two years of research on the effectiveness of organomineral fertilizers (OMF) from the company "Torfoprodukt" on productivity and quality indicators of table grapes of the Italia variety in the mountainous valley-seaside grape-growing region of Crimea. The nature of the relationship between grape yield per bush and leaf surface area, as well as the average chlorophyll concentration in grape leaves, was mathematically analyzed.
Results and conclusion. The analysis showed that vegetative treatments with OMF "Torfoprodukt" increased grape yield by 7.8% compared to the control. The standard production level of the Italia variety increased by 2.6%. Sugar concentration rose by 6.3%, while titratable acids decreased by 9.8%. Mathematical analysis revealed a strong correlation between yield and leaf surface area, as well as pigment concentration in leaves (correlation coefficient 0.80-0.90). The coefficient of determination R² was 0.71-0.81, indicating that yield depends 80% on leaf area and 75% on chlorophyll content. The dispersion analysis confirms the influence of these factors on yield (p<0.05), demonstrating the high effectiveness of the preparation.
