Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsRotational Pasture Management for Ameliorating Productivity and Feed Value of Vegetation, Soil Quality, and Sustainability in Dry Steppe ZoneGani Stybayev, Meisam Zargar, Beibit Nasiyev et al.Over the past years, a farming system in the Akmola region of Kazakhstan has undergone significant changes: The average number of animals per farm and the use of external inputs have significantly enhanced while the diversity of farming practices has decreased, becoming similar to intensive farming. In this research, we evaluated the rotational pastures for increasing the productivity and feed … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 1 · 18 Jan 2025 · 4,255 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPossibilities of Stabilizing Soil Biological Activity by Treating Seeds With a Biological Preparation Based on Phosphate Mobilizing Bacteria in the Conditions of the Aral Sea Region of KazakhstanZhanar Zhumadilova, Laura Tokhetova, Shorabayev Yerik et al.This study examined the effect of Phosphate-Mobilizing Bacteria (PMB) as a pre-sowing treatment for forage crop seeds. The objective was to assess the potential of these bacterial biopreparations to improve both crop productivity and soil fertility. Research methods included agrochemical, microbiological, and conventional field analyses. The findings revealed that pre-sowing seed treatment with PMB increased crop yields by 7.4% to … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 4 · 24 Sep 2026 · 642 accessesView PDFCite
