In the article, we have revealed the efficiency of foliar sulfur (potassium sulfate 250, 500, 1000 and 2000 g/ha), molybdenum (celik molybdenum 125, 250, 500 and 1000 ml/ha) and boron (solubor DF 0,5, 1,0, 2,0 and 4,0 kg/ha) fertilizers in various doses of soybean growing on the leached black soil of Northern Ciscaucasia which are based on studies in central part of the Krasnodar region in 2012-2014. The Vilan is a soybean variety most common in the Krasnodar region; therefore it was taken as the research object. It was established that 250 g/ha is the most effective dose of sulphur fertilizer. It’s provided a yield increase by 0,13 t/ha and increase collection of protein and oil (52,9 and 21.1 kg/ha, respectively). Soybean yields were increased by the application of molybdenum fertilizer in a dose of 250 ml/ha by 0,10 t/ha with increasing collection of protein 45,8 kg/ha. Boron fertilizer increased sum of beans and seeds. Variant of 0.5 kg/ha provided yield increase of 0.08 t/ha, but it was 0.26 t/ha in dry 2014

The article presents the results of diagnosis of soybean plants with sulfur, molybdenum and boron in a Western Ciscaucasia on leached chernozem (black soil). The soil testing has shown that the availability of sulfur in the experimental plots is low (2,10-7,02 mg / kg), molybdenum - average (0,20-0,28 mg / kg), boron - low to high (0, 22-0,63 mg / kg). The sulfur content was optimal in 2013 (2309 mg / kg), molybdenum - 2013 and 2014 (1.11 and 0.94 mg / kg) and the boron content was high (65,2-94, 1 mg / kg) in soybean plants. The soybean plants needed sulfur fertilizer in 2012 and 2014, molybdenum - in 2014, and boron fertilizers are not needed, according to the functional diagnosis. The results of various methods of diagnosis coincided with the response of soybean plants for foliar application: sulfur fertilizer increases the yield in 2012 and 2014 by 7.1 and 8.9 %, molybdenum also in 2012 and 2014 - by 6.0 and 10.0 %. Boron fertilizers in 2014 increased soybean yields (17.1%), despite the lack of need for soybean plants in Bor. So, the method of functional diagnostics is more accurate than chemical soil and plant diagnostics
