The invention is used in agriculture to increase yields of crops. To accelerate the growth of plants produce material containing magnetic substance coated with a polymer compound. This material is in the form of granules or filamentous products diameter of 1 - 10 mm. The cross section of the thread, and the granules have any convenient for the manufacture of form. As the magnetic substance used in the iron-based alloys with magnetic properties.

DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The invention relates to agricultural production to improve crop yields, ie, to increase the rate of accumulation of green mass, reducing the time of fruit ripening, increasing output per unit area, etc.

Various film materials that are used to raise the temperature in the greenhouse [1], to accelerate the ripening of vegetables [2] means for seed treatment in a magnetic field [3 - 5]. Each of these methods has its advantages and disadvantages.

The closest in technical essence is the material used for the intensification of root growth and containing the magnetic substance [6].

The disadvantages of this technical decision is the rapid destruction and loss of properties of the material when exposed to weathering.

To eliminate this drawback is proposed a material that, when properly used, can increase the rate of photosynthesis and accelerate the growth of plants.

In appearance, this material is a pellet or filiform article. The core yarn and the core granules made of a magnetic substance, which is coated with a protective layer, such as lacquer, polyethylene, polypropylene and others. Polymeric compound.

The core and the core may be made by crushing the whole magnetic material or magnetized after manufacturing the granules. As the magnetic substance can be used on the basis of rare earth compounds such as samarium-cobalt alloys, on the basis of neodymium-iron-boron, magnetite, iron-based alloys, and others. The granules may have different size, but starting from practice of granule diameter It should be in the range 1 - 10 mm. Thread, especially if it is made in the form of a tape, the tape width is not particularly limited and depends on the plant. pellet form may be either round or elongated. Threaded material in its cross section and can be circular, square, ellipse, rectangle or other shape convenient for fabrication. The most important requirement which is presented to the pellet or thread - having magnetic properties a long time. If the bead or filament breaks when exposed to weathering, that are coated with a protective layer, such as lacquer, polyethylene, polypropylene, etc.

METHOD OF USE OF SUCH MATERIAL IS NEXT

When planting the plants make pellets into the medium (soil in crop planting shrubs or trees when sowing seeds), artificial ground at hydroponics, etc. so that the bulk of the roots was located next to the granules. Really simple granules mixed with earth and planted plants. The use of this material allows to accelerate the build-up of green mass, increase seed germination, speed up the ripening of fruits. Threaded soil material along a number of plants in their roots along the stem or branches of plants and skeletal. The proposed material can be used for vegetables (cucumber, tomato, green culture, etc.), as well as for cereals and tree plants.

Example
Particle size of 1 - 3 mm kabaltovogo magnetized samarium-alloy plated layer and the polyethylene produced granules have a continuous thread and a diameter of 3 - 4 mm. Granules and filament placed in the intended location of the root system of carrots and amaranth. Then the seeds and monitored plant growth rate. The table shows the rate of growth of plants on the basis of tests conducted. The soil was introduced 7 vol.% Of the material in the form of granules.

MATERIAL FOR ACCELERATION OF GROWTH OF PLANTS. Russian Federation Patent RU2113781

As can be seen from the table, the use of magnetic material accelerates seed germination and increase the rate of increase of green mass. The amount of material in the range of 5 - 20 vol%, depending on the magnetic properties of the compounds in the material.. Furthermore, if the volume of the material more than 20% have difficulties associated with achieving uniformity (magnetic particles can stick together) and the normal functioning of the plant root system.
