Abstract
The use of differentiated technologies in crop production ensures high yields while minimizing environmental impacts and significant resource savings. To optimize technological impacts, it is necessary to know the distribution of soil properties and their changes in space and time. The purpose of the work is to assess the variability of soil characteristics and the impact on crop yields. The article presents studies of the variability of soil properties, the unevenness of soil moisture during the operation of wide-range sprinkler equipment and the influence of spatial heterogeneity of properties and the use of differentiated technologies on crop yields.
