THE IMPORTANCE OF THE ALTERNATION SYSTEM IN THE CULTIVATION OF CALENDULA OFFICINALIS

Abstract

The article describes the importance of the rotation system when growing medicinal plants. It is indicated that the rotation system has a positive effect on the growth and development of plants. It was noted that without alternating intermediate crops, plant productivity was 612-655 kg/ha; when using intermediate crops for 1 year (alternation), these indicators were noted in the range of 707-712 kg/ha, which is comparatively 8-9% higher, and with constant alternation, plant productivity can increase up to 20-24%
