Summary. The effect of different nitrogenous fertilizer doses (N30-120) on the yield of green mass of early-maturing corn hybrid Mashuk 185 MV was studied in the field experiment on ordinary chernozem of sufficient moistening zone of Stavropol region. It was revealed that the dependence of the yield growth on fertilizer is determined not only by the nitrogen dose, but also by the amount of precipitation in June-July. The coefficient of the linear dependence of nitrogen fertilizers efficiency on the amount of precipitation and the hydrothermal coefficient (HTC) increases established with an increase in the dose of nitrogen. The correlation coefficient dependence of the efficiency of nitrogen fertilizers on the amount of precipitation and hydrothermic coefficient increases with nitrogen dose increasing. Thus, the correlation coefficients of precipitation in June, July, the periods June-July and yield increase of green mass were: after a dose N30 – from 0.22 to 0.47; N60 – 0.34-0.54; N90 – 0.37-0.54; N120 – 0.64-0.83. The precipitations of July were crucial for obtaining the greatest yield increase of green mass with the applying of nitrogen doses N60-120 (r=0.54-0.81). A significant strong linear correlation of hydrothermic coefficient in July, June-July and the magnitude of the yield increase of green mass was registered after N120 (r=0.78). The effectiveness of a high dose of nitrogen N120 depends on precipitation and hydrothermic coefficient to the greatest extent. The effect of low dose fertilizer N30 on precipitation in June and July did not have a significant effect, it indicates its stable efficiency. It was proposed to choose nitrogen doses based on the weather forecast for June-July.

Key words: corn, nitrogen fertilizers, precipitation, hydrothermic coefficient, HTC, yield increase, dependence, Stavropol Territory.
