Abstract
SHS investigation development is considered from the geographical and historical viewpoint. 3 stages are described. Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.
Abstract
Banana plant pseudo-stem juice is a rich source of potash and used in the cultivation of wheat. Use of the juice in lieu of muriate of potash affords a higher number of seeds per plant as well as a higher per capita weight of seeds. The juice treated soil affords 60% more yield over that in soil treated with muriate of potash; 89% more as compared to the yield from normal soil not treated with muriate of potash. Materials and methods have been discussed. Colour pictures of experimental plots are reported.
