6-benzylaminopurine is a synthetic analogue of the natural phytohormone of the cytokinin group. A number of studies have shown that its use has a positive effect on plant development in conditions of soil salinization. Meanwhile, the authors have not found any field studies on the effect of 6-benzylaminopurine on the development of winter grain crops in the territory of the Republic of Uzbekistan. The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of foliar treatment on productivity of winter grain crops with 6-benzylaminopurine under soil salinization conditions. The study was conducted on irrigated areas in the Republic of Uzbekistan (Republic of Karakalpakstan). Based on the results of the 2023-2024 experiment, it was found that when using the agent on the studied crops, spike weight and average grain weight per spike improve. As a result of the field experiment of 2024-2025, it was shown that phytohormone treatment of winter wheat and barley improves overall and productive tillering, which is reflected in increase in yields of the studied crops: 14 % for winter wheat and 9 % for winter barley.

6-бензиламинопурин является синтетическим аналогом природного фитогормона группы цитокининов. В ряде исследований показано, что его использование положительно влияет на развитие растений в условиях почвенного засоления. Между тем полевых исследований по влиянию 6-бензиламинопурина на развитие озимых зерновых культур для территории Республики Узбекистан не обнаружено. Цель исследования - оценка влияния фолиарной обработки на показатели продуктивности озимых зерновых культур 6-бензиламинопурином в условиях почвенного засоления. Исследование проводилось на орошаемых участках в Республике Узбекистан (Республика Каракалпакстан). По результатам опыта 2023-2024 г. установлено, что при использовании состава на изученных культурах увеличиваются масса зерна с квадратного метра и средняя масса зерна с колоса. Полевой опыт 2024-2025 г. показал, что обработка фитогормонами озимых пшеницы и ячменя улучшает общую и продуктивную кустистость и это сказалось на повышении урожайности изученных культур: 14 % для озимой пшеницы и 9 % для озимого ячменя.
