At the meeting on the ongoing activities of accelerated development of agriculture, it was noted that compliance with the established norms on foliar feeding of wheat, that is, slurry treatment, introduction of local fertilizers into a soil plays an important role in increasing the yield. These important agrotechnical measures increase the efficiency of mineral fertilizers by 6-8 times and allow reducing the need of plants in water to 20-25 percent.
