Valerian (Valeriana officinalis L.) is a prospective medicinal crop for Ukraine with stable high demand on the national and global phytopharmacological market. There is a need in the improvement of the crop’s cultivation technology in order to obtain higher yields of qualitative roots to satisfy the needs of pharmaceutical branch. The prospective way of cultivation technology improvement is in engagement of modern modeling techniques including multiple linear regression analysis of effects of different agrotechnological factors on valerian productivity. The study revealed that in Ukraine valerian’s reaction on different mineral fertilizers differ. The yield of roots depends mainly on Potassium fertilizer rates, the least effect on the crop productivity was fixed for Phosphorus. The model for valerian root yields depending on NPK fertilization provides new possibil.. Read More»
