Abstract:

The problem of soil contamination with heavy metals over the past three decades is growing and is relevant not only in Ukraine, Europe, but throughout the world. The content of heavy metals in the soil increases and creates a risk to the environment and human health. To eliminate this problem, various technologies of soil recovery from ecotoxicants are used. In agricultural production, one way is to grow crops that are resistant to the adverse effects of heavy metals. This article presents the study results of heavy metals translocation in corn plants during the entire growing season. It was experimentally established that the most intensive accumulation occurred in the early period of growth and development of the culture and decreased until the maturation period. It is found that the corn grain of the hybrid Zdvizh MV in all variants corresponds to the standards of feed raw materials, and can be used for technical purposes.
