Tyrimai atlikti 2009 metais LŽŪU Sodininkystės ir daržininkystės katedros mokomajame darže Ringaudų kaime (Kauno raj.). Darbo tikslas – įvertinti tręšimo normų įtaką šakniavaisinių daržovių bendram ir standartiniam derliui. Tyrimams pasirinktos šios šakniavaisinės daržovės: morkos, petražolės, pastarnokai. Šakniavaisinės daržovės buvo tręšiamos skirtingomis kompleksinių trąšų normomis: 50 ml 10 l-1; 70 ml 10 l-1 ir 90 ml 10 l-1. Nustatyti šakniavaisių kokybės rodikliai, standartiniais metodais nustatyta daržovių cheminė sudėtis. Tyrimų duomenys įvertinti dispersinės analizės metodu (ANOVA) naudojant kompiuterinę programą SELEKCIJA (Sakalauskas, 2003). Tyrimais nustatyta, kad šakniavaisinių daržovių tręšimas skirtingomis trąšų normomis neturėjo esminės įtakos šakniavaisių derliui, biometriniams rodikliams bei cheminei sudėčiai. Reikšminiai žodžiai: šakniavaisinės daržovės, derlius, tręšimas, cheminė sudėtis. / In the 2009 year at Lithuanian University of Agriculture there was performed laboratory research on how fertilization rate influence on quality of the root vegetables yield. Research was executed with the root vegetables: carrot , parsnip, parley. After harvest average sample of the root vegetables were collected and re – counted to t ha-1 . There were determinate efficient index of the root vegetables, the chemical composition were carried out using standard methods. Research data statistically processed by method of (ANOVA) using computer program SELEKCIJA. The investigate showed that application of different fertilization rate did not have any significant effect on the root vegetables yield, efficient index and chemical composition. Key words: root vegetables yield, fertelizing, chemical composition.

The Nuu-chah-nulth and other First Nations of coastal British Columbia used to maintain gardens of indigenous plants with edible roots on their estuarine tidal flats. Tasty and nutritious, these roots were carefully tended and nurtured to enhance their productivity and quality. Within the last century, the Nuu-chah-nulth diet has changed significantly, and these indigenous root vegetables are not as well known. This community-based action research project (The λ’aayaʕas Project) was suggested by members of the Nuu-chah-nulth communities of Clayoquot Sound, as a way of maintaining and strengthening traditional knowledge, cultural identity and ultimately, community health and well-being through renewal of awareness of these and other traditional foods. The λ’aayaʕas project engaged students and community members of all ages in a diverse range of activities aimed at revitalizing the knowledge, skills and cultural practices involved in caring for traditional root gardens. These activities have included: hosting community steam-pit cooking events; learning from knowledgeable community members; re-creating a root garden in the community of Ahousaht; and implementing and observing the results of traditional management techniques on a root garden plot at the Atleo River estuary. This thesis documents the development of this community action research project and examines the role of ecocultural restoration projects in providing opportunities to strengthen and facilitate the connection of youth to their land and culture through experiential learning. Discussions incorporate a summary of feedback and reflections on the project, and of the revitalization of traditional iv knowledge and practices locally, globally and in the future. In closing, I draw together thoughts and ideas from local community members and others who recognize and hope to revitalize the inextricable relationships between cultural and ecological health and diversity.
