Main areas of scientific activity

  • Monitoring of the agrochemical and humus state of soils under different fertilization and tillage systems.
  • Study of patterns of transformation of organic matter of soils of different genesis under the influence of modern agricultural technologies.
  • Methods of controlling the transformation of the humus state of soils under agrogenic influence of different intensity.
  • Agrochemical characteristics of local raw materials of various origins and the development of technologies for their processing into organic and organo-mineral fertilizers with the preparation of regulatory and technical documentation (technical conditions and technological regulations).
  • Performance of measurements in the field of environmental control (certificate of compliance of the measurement system with the requirements of DSTU ISO 10012:2005, No. 01-0104/2017). The field of certification is the quality of soil organic matter, local raw materials, organic and organo-mineral fertilizers, biostimulants.
