Materials used in this chapter are published in book Biopesticide Albit for
increasing yields and protection of agricultures against diseases, A.K. Zlotnikov,
Ed. Prof. À. Melkumova. All-Russia Institute of Plant Protection, Russia, 2006.
Albit is multipurpose biopesticide, which combines properties
of plant growth regulator, biofungicide, antistress agent (antidote),
fertilizer and promoter of drought resistance.
In most cases, Albit increases yields by 10-30%. Biological efficiency of Albit
against plant diseases is 40-80%. Albit increases gluten content in wheat averagely
by 2.3% and drought resistance by 10-60%.
Albit can be used for presowing seed treatment and foliar
sprayings; the most significant way of Albit application is its
combination with chemical pesticides (fungicides, herbicides and insecticides)
for increasing their activity.
List of agricultures treated with Albit includes all main crops,
vegetables, technical cultures and horticultures: winter and spring wheat, barley,
rye, oats, rice, sugar beet, sunflower, maize, flax, potato, millet, buckwheat,
soybean, pea, canola, chick-pea, vetch, galega, fodder and french beans, lupine,
alfalfa, lentil, vine, apple, white and chinese cabbage, onion, carrot, tomato,
cucumber, pepper, lettuce, eggplants, vegetable marrow, table beet, strawberry,
currant, cherry, gooseberry, dog rose, different flowers, amaranth, decorative
and forest breeds, lawn and fodder grasses. Albit has been tested by different
state scientific institutions on 47 cultures and used on more than 50 cultures.
Since mechanisms of Albit action are universal for all plants,
one can assume positive influence of Albit on cultures still not tested yet.
High efficiency of Albit was confirmed in long-term trials carried out
by leading scientific institutions of Russia in all soil and
climatic zones of the country: North-West, Central, Central-‘Black-earth’,
North-Caucasian, Volga and Vyatka, Privolzhye, Ural, East-Siberian, and Primorye
(Far-East). During 1997-2004, the high efficiency of Albit was demonstrated in
more than 250 field trials on 50 cultures in 45 regions of Russia.
Efficiency of Albit was examined in trials performed by All-Russia Institute
of Plant Protection, Moscow State University, Central Institute of Agrochemical
Service (Pryanishnikov All-Russia Institute of Agrochemistry), All-Russia Institute
of Biological Plant Protection, All-Russia Institute of Grain Crops, All-Russia
Institute of Leguminous and Groat Crops, Institute of Plant Physiology RAS, All-Russia
Flax Institute, Soil Institute, All-Russia Institute of Vegetable Selection
and Seed Breeding, All-Russia Institute of Horticulture, All-Russia Institute of
Viticulture and Vine Processing, Institute of Biochemistry and Physiology of
Microorganisms RAS, Far-East Institute of Plant Protection, Kurgan Institute
of Grain Growing, Agricultural Scientific Institute of South-East, North-Caucasian

Service Stations, Lipetsk and Stavropol State Cultivar Testing Stations, Prikumsk
Experimental Breeding Station, farmers of Krasnodar, Stavropol, Bryansk, Rostov,
Tula and other oblasts. Detailed list of scientific institutions performed tests
with Albit see here.
In details, the main functions of Albit are described in following chapters:
Yield increase
Control of diseases
Decrease of chemical pesticides consumption
Increase of resistance to drought and other adverse environmental factors
Complex fertilizer
Bioremediation of oil-polluted soils
