THE INDIGOFERA (INDIGOFERA TINCTORIA L.) PLANT: ITS ORIGINS, SIGNIFICANCE, AND ADAPTABILITY TO SALINE SOIL CONDITIONS

Аннотация

This article highlights the significance of Indigofera (Indigofera tinctoria L.)—a non-traditional legume crop cultivated in the saline soil conditions of the Jizzakh region—and examines the role of biostimulants in grain formation and yield. It is scientifically demonstrated that sowing 3 kg per hectare during the third ten-day period of April results in a grain yield of 20.9 t/ha (an increase of 7.2 t/ha compared to the control), a 1,000-grain weight of 0.5 g, and a seedling count of 107 during the germination and flowering stages.
