AGROTECHNICS OF CULTIVATION OF CORN VARIETIES IN WEAKLY SALTY LAND IN BUKHARA REGION
Abstract
Corn is the most valuable, high-yielding cereal crop with food, fodder, technical and agrotechnical significance. Corn kernels are used as food. Its grain is very nutritious, containing an average of 10.6% fiber and 1.4% ash. However, the amount of protein in corn kernels is low. That is why corn is covered with bread by adding 25-30% wheat flour to it. Due to the high content of fat (4.3-5.0%) in corn kernels, it is fermented quickly. Grain husks are separated on special machines, and the rest is used to make flour, because corn husks contain 25-40% of fat, which is used for cooking oil. In addition, cereals are made from corn kernels, milk - wax can be used as food during roasting (cucumber) and boiled during cooking. During this period it is also possible to make canned from its grain. Corn grain and stalks are used as fodder. Its grain is very nutritious (1 kg of corn grain has 1.34 kg of feed unit) and is given to poultry and cattle in whole or in the form of cereals.
