Abstract

Abstract The article presents an analysis of the world and Russian production of cucumbers, as one of the most common vegetable crops in many countries, open and closed ground. Among the vegetable crops grown in protected soil, the most profitable is cucumber. The share of each district in the gross harvest of cucumbers closed in Russia is calculated, and the regions with the maximum absolute index are listed. The volume of imports to Russia is shown in terms of value and in kind, indicating the key supplier countries. In recent years, more and more demand in the market is becoming environmentally friendly vegetable products, the cultivation of which is widely used biological remedies. To obtain environmentally friendly products, it is necessary to use plant protection systems based on the use of biological plant protection products and growth regulators, which increase the disease resistance of plants in adverse conditions. To analyze the effectiveness of such means, in the course of research, the effect of the drug Gliocladin in combination with the growth regulator Zircon against the root rot was studied. On the basis of the obtained data, the economic effect of their use in the conditions of film greenhouses is calculated.
