Course content
The discipline is a basic discipline that covers the main processes occurring with the participation of soil microorganisms (soil formation, cycles of basic chemical elements), the possibility of increasing soil fertility through the use of bacterial preparations. An important place is given to the study of soil microbial communities that play an important role in the formation of its fertility, the mechanisms of associative and symbiotic microorganisms on the plant, the practical use of microbial drugs to regulate plant life and increase their yields.
