increasing yields and protection of agricultures against diseases, A.K. Zlotnikov,
Ed. Prof. À. Melkumova. All-Russia Institute of Plant Protection, Russia, 2006.
Influence of treatments with Albit on carrot was carried out by All-Russia Institute
of Vegetable Selection and Seed Breeding on carrot var. Vitaminnaya in 2001
and 2003. According to results of trials, treatment with Albit increased yield
of carrot by 37.5 centners/hectare (10.9% over control) on

In the conducted field trials, economical or biological effectiveness of Albit was
not inferior to that of bioformulations based on Pseudomonas aureofaciens.
