The Institute of Flax offers consumers the drug "Antichlorosis" and the technology of its application in flax crops to increase resistance to diseases, yield, and quality of flax products under a manufacturing agreement and is looking for partners to interested in a distribution services agreement.

The drug "Antichlorosis" is intended for the treatment of flax seeds and plants, in order to prevent the plant disease calcium chlorosis, when grown on soils with a pH of 6.0 and more, due to the supply of a complex of microelements to the plant, their uniform distribution and fixation. The consumption rate of the drug for the treatment of flax seeds and plants per hectare is 2.5 liters.

The information is posted on the website of the Flax Institute here. (in Russian)

Reducing flax plant disease incidence increases fiber yield by 4.8, seeds by 1.7 c/ha, trust quality by 0.25-0.50, fiber by 1-2 numbers. The drug "Antichlorosis" corresponds to European analogues. The profit per hectare of sowing was 397.8 c.u., production profitability - 20%.

Developed TU VU 100050710.126 - 2009 "Antichlorosis" for flax"; Technological regulations for the creation of the drug "Antichlorosis"; Technology of application of the drug "Antichlorosis" on flax. The drug is developed at OJSC "Shauer-Group", Minsk.

The Institute of Flax is the leading scientific organization in the Republic in the field of flax growing and flax processing.

The main priority areas of activity of the Flax Institute of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus are:
- Creation of new highly productive varieties of fiber flax of various maturity groups and high-yielding, high-fat varieties of oil flax with high technological and food qualities of oil.
- Primary seed production of zoned and promising varieties of fiber flax and oil flax.
- Development of environmentally friendly, resource-saving technologies for the cultivation and harvesting of new and promising varieties of fiber flax and oil flax in the conditions of the Republic of Belarus.
- Development of agrotechnical methods for increasing the yield and quality of flax products and reducing the cost of production of flax products.
- Monitoring the morphophysiological and phytosanitary state of fiber flax crops.
- Improving the methods of managing processes occurring during the aging of flax straw.
- Implementation of scientific developments in agricultural production, advanced training of personnel in the flax industry.

The Institute offers cooperation in the field of:
- improving the methods of assessing the quality of the source material at the initial stages of the selection process;
- creating a national flax collection, studying it, replenishing it, and targeting its use in selection;
- selection and immunological assessment of the source material of flax for the purpose of targeting the creation of varieties resistant to various pathogens;
- developing a technology for cultivating new zoned varieties of fiber flax and oil flax;
- developing new compositions of complex fertilizers;
diagnostics of mineral nutrition of fiber flax and oil flax;
- studying the relationship between the density of the stem stand and mineral nutrition, their influence on the quality indicators of fiber and seeds of fiber flax;
- studying the relationship between stem density and mineral nutrition on the yield and quality indicators of oil flax seeds;
- developing methods for reducing the incidence of diseases of straw and seeds of fiber flax and oil flax;
- expanding research in the direction of improving the technology of dew soaking of flax straw and standardization of flax products;
- conducting research on the further development of the theory of obtaining scutched flax fiber and identifying patterns of change in the structure of the stem layer at the stages of agricultural production;
- developing new instrumental methods for assessing the quality of scutched flax fiber and flax products.

International scientific and technical cooperation has been established with leading research organizations of the Russian Federation, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Poland, engaged in the cultivation and processing of flax.
