At present, the demand of producers and the market
determine the model of future varieties. Task for
breeders is to develop varieties having a set of
economic and biological traits fitting into the model
templates. The developed varieties and hybrids should
ensure for climatic conditions of the Krasnodar region
consistently high yields, better product quality and
maximum efficiency of crop industry. As a result of
breeding work there was developed a watermelon
variety called Yubilyar, belonging to medium-ripening
group, having high figures of economically valuable
traits. The variety has resistance to unfavorable factors
of growing conditions and stable yields. It is suitable
for cultivation in rainfed areas and practically does not
require protective measures against major diseases
prevalent in the southern regions. Fruits are large, of
wide elliptical shape, with bright crispy red flesh and a
thin crust. Determined by stable fruiting under
different weather conditions, friendly yield return,
commercial fruits – up to 92%. Potential yield – up to
25 t/ha. Good stored for 40-50 days, suitable for
transportation on a long distance. Passed preliminary
tests on the fields in the Krasnodar, Rostov regions and
the Republic of North Ossetia. According to results of
evaluation from producers the variety meets
requirements of the market and has a commercial
appeal
An important element in the technology of growing
seed plants of onion is the use of physiologically active
substances to protect plants from frost in early spring
growing season. Damage to plants during this period
affects seed production. In the experiment we used
preparation called Epin-Extra R, with which the leaves
of plants were treated a day before expected frost. Test
results have shown high efficiency of preparation in the
field and in the film unheated greenhouse. Treatment
helps to balance the negative impact of low
temperatures and obtain an additional seeds yield 92-95
kg / ha more compared with the control, due to the
increase of seed of productivity of plants to 3.2 g
