Evaluation of seeding rates and sowing methods of nigella (Nigella L.) in cultivation for seeds
Abstract
One of the key issues in seed production is obtaining high-quality seed material and increasing the multiplication factor. In the Republic of Belarus, the introduction of essential oil and medicinal plants in the context of climate change is currently relevant. The purpose of the work was to identify optimal sowing methods and seeding rates for nigella species when cultivating for seed purposes. As a result of the research, it was established that the optimal method is a wide-row sowing method (0.45 m) in the nursery for testing the progeny of the 1st and 2nd generations with a seeding rate of 0.4–1.1 million viable seeds per 1 ha. Sowing seeds in the usual row (0.15 m) and wide-row (0.30 and 0.70 m) method, with a seeding rate of 3.3; 1.6; 0.7 million pcs. of viable seeds per hectare, respectively, can be used in a propagation nursery, as well as for obtaining super-elite, elite and reproduction seeds.
