In January, the agricultural production department of NIBULON began fertilizing winter crops, an essential prerequisite for achieving high yields. Currently, the company is actively applying ammonium nitrate, one of the most effective nitrogen fertilizers. It provides plants with the necessary macronutrients for healthy growth and development. The timely application of this fertilizer significantly impacts winter crop yields.

Our specialists plan to apply ammonium nitrate on a total area of 16,200 hectares, including 8,600 hectares of winter wheat and 7,600 hectares of winter rapeseed. In addition to ammonium nitrate, ammonium sulfate will be applied to improve the efficiency of plant nutrition.
To date, we have fertilized winter crops on an area of 7,820 hectares, indicating a high level of organization and efficiency of the measures. In particular, the Mykolaiv cluster has fertilized 5,602 hectares; this constitutes the majority of the total work volume. Our Central and Kamianets-Podilskyi clusters have fertilized 1,970 hectares and 248 hectares respectively.
After fertilizing winter crops, a series of important agrotechnical measures will be carried out to improve the conditions for plant growth and ensure the stable development of crops throughout the season.
One of these steps is the harrowing of winter crops which will improve soil aeration, thereby promoting better oxygen supply to the plant roots. This will also help retain moisture in the soil, which is extremely important in changing climatic conditions, especially during periods of drought. Additionally, the application of plant protection products (PPPs) is planned, which is an integral part of crop care. This will enable effective control of weeds, pests, and diseases that may harm the harvest.
The complex of these agrotechnical measures will create optimal conditions for the growth and development of winter crops, contributing to increasing yields while maintaining high product quality.
Earlier, we reported that the agricultural production department of NIBULON has reduced fuel consumption by 500 tons or 15% compared to the previous season. This was made possible due to the adoption of new production technologies and the modernization of the company’s agricultural machinery fleet.
