The rhizomes and roots of Rhodiola rosea (lat. Rhizoma et radix Rhodiolae roseae) are used as medicinal raw materials. Raw materials are harvested from the end of flowering to the full ripening of the fruits: they are dug up, cleaned from the ground, washed with water, freed from rotten parts and cut into pieces. Dry in dryers at 50-60 °C. Shelf life of raw materials is 3 years. It is valued as a medicinal plant, an adaptogen, not much inferior to ginseng. In medicine, both above-ground and underground parts are used. Decoctions and lotions are prepared from the aerial parts, which are used in the treatment of trachoma. In addition, rhizomes are used in the treatment of cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, skin diseases, pulmonary tuberculosis, bone fractures and many other diseases, as an antipyretic, tonic. Externally used in the form of lotions or ointments for the treatment of wounds, conjunctivitis, skin rashes, abscesses. The juice of the rhizomes is used for jaundice and as a wound cleanser.

medicinal use
The male thyroid gland has been widely and for a very long time known as a medicinal plant. The medicinal properties of this plant were already known to doctors of the ancient and medieval era. In particular, it is repeatedly mentioned in the writings of Dioscorides and Pliny. The plant is poisonous, (especially the rhizome), the possibility of poisoning is not excluded! The rhizome has a specific smell and a sweetish-tart taste. The rhizome (lat. Rhizoma Filicis maris) is used as a medicinal raw material, which is dug up in the fall, shaken off the ground, cleaned of roots and leaves and dried in the shade, in well-ventilated rooms or in dryers at a temperature not exceeding 40 ° C. The main active ingredients of the male fern rhizome are phenolic compounds consisting of phloroglucides of varying degrees of complexity - monomeric, dimeric and trimeric derivatives of phloroglucinol: filmarone (aspidinophyllin), filicin, flavaspidic acid, aspidinol and others with a pronounced antihelminthic effect. These substances cause paralysis of the muscles of the tapeworms, which are then excreted from the body with the help of a laxative. This method of antihelminthic therapy is currently considered obsolete. In the European Pharmacopoeia, this drug is mainly used in veterinary medicine.

The medicinal properties of beetroot have been known since ancient times. Avicenna (Canon of Medicine) calls the plant "Alusun": Alusun moderately dries and cleanses, it helps with freckles and dissolves, and does all this in moderation. Galen says: it is useful from the bite of a rabid dog in its property and cured many, and therefore it is called - alusun. Four species of the genus Burachok grow in Altai: obovate (Alyssum obovatum), curved (Alyssum tortuosum), desert (Alyssum desertorum) and gray-haired. In folk medicine, all these types do not differ and are used in the same way. In the southern and central strip of Russia, mountain beetroot (Alyssum montanum) grows, similar in structure to Siberian species. In folk medicine, it is believed that preparations from this plant have a laxative and diuretic effect. An aqueous infusion of beetroot was used in the old days inside with the bites of rabid animals and externally as a cosmetic remedy for freckles and spots on the face. In Western Siberia and Altai, beetroot, regardless of the type, is used orally for hernias (especially inguinal), for colds and kidney stones.

The milky juice of all has extremely sharp properties, and therefore euphorbias are all more or less poisonous, cattle avoid them. Some spurges, such as Waldstein's spurge (Euphorbia waldsteinii), are noxious weeds. In home gardens, spurge is used to kill bedbugs and leaf-eating caterpillars.
Slide 55
A decoction is prepared from the roots of an edible bodyak, which is used in the treatment of lung diseases: for tuberculosis, pneumonia, bronchiectasis (bronchiectasis) - an irreversible expansion of the bronchi with inflammation of their walls and lung tissue, lung abscess and even cancer - as an adjuvant. Chopped roots (2 tablespoons) should be poured with 1.5 cups of clean water (not from the tap), bring to a boil and cook for 5-7 minutes over low heat. Then insist an hour, strain, and take 3-4 times a day before meals, ½ cup. In case of tuberculosis, diseases of the biliary tract, gastroenteritis, excessive sweating, neurosis and neurasthenia, an infusion of flowers and herbs of the edible watercress is also taken. A decoction of the seeds of this plant is used for some female diseases - for example, inflammation of the uterine appendages. Seeds (1 tsp) are poured with a glass of water, brought to a boil and boiled for 5 minutes over low heat; insist 2 hours, filter, and drink 3 times a day for ½ cup. A garden thistle (sow-thistle) is also suitable for food, although it almost does not grow in vegetable gardens - you can rather meet it in forest swamps and ravines, in damp meadows and in shrubbery, on the edges of forests and near water bodies. This type of bodyak is also called vegetable or herbaceous; it is also tall - up to 120 cm, its flowers are light yellow, and the thorns protect it from being eaten by livestock, although it often grows on meadow pastures - it is sometimes called the devil's rib by the people. Young shoots and leaves of this species are used to add to salads, soups and other dishes.
Slide 56
For medicinal purposes, many types of bodyak are used; given that there are a lot of them on the territory of Russia, it is impossible to tell here even about most of these species. It is more expedient to use the herb of some types of thistle for the treatment of skin diseases when the plant blooms: its decoctions and infusions, as well as fresh herbal gruel, treat lichen and eczema, diathesis, dandruff, relieve itching and inflammation. Decoctions of inflorescences and roots are taken for bleeding, menstrual disorders, headaches, epilepsy, neuropsychiatric diseases and paralysis. A decoction of the herb is taken for goiter, rheumatism, pharyngitis, metabolic disorders, jaundice, cancer of the breast, stomach and lungs; it is also used as a diuretic, and even helps with anuria - the complete absence of urination that occurs with some serious diseases and kidney damage. Pregnant and lactating mothers were given to drink decoctions and infusions of thistle, as this contributes to the overall improvement of the body and the production of milk, but today doctors do not give such recommendations - after all, the composition of the plant has not been studied. Nevertheless, judging by the recipes that we managed to bring here, the bodyak deserves much more attention from official medicine - it remains to be hoped that it will soon begin to be seriously studied.

Extraordinarily varied. Here you can see almost everything: classic dry steppes, deep taiga, and lifeless arctic deserts... No other region of the country has such a set of natural and climatic zones.
Nature and ecology of the Krasnoyarsk Territory
The Krasnoyarsk Territory occupies about 13% of the territory of Russia. From both edges it is bordered by mountain systems: the Byrranga mountains from the north, the Sayans and - in the south. The region is extremely rich in various minerals. In particular, over 90% of the country's nickel and platinum reserves, about 40% of Russian lead reserves and about 20% of gold are concentrated here.
The territory has a sharply continental climate. The temperature regime is very different, since the Krasnoyarsk Territory is very elongated in the meridional direction. In the far north, winter temperatures often reach -30...-35 degrees.
The flora, nature and animals of the Krasnoyarsk Territory simply amaze with their diversity and exceptional wealth. 340 species of birds and 89 species of mammals live here, including sable, arctic fox, ermine and reindeer. There are more than 60 species of fish in rivers and lakes, many of which are of industrial importance (sterlet, sturgeon, and others).
Nature Protection of the Krasnoyarsk Territory
They try to preserve the wealth of nature in the region by creating a large number of protected areas and objects. To date, 30 reserves have already been created here, as well as 7 nature reserves, the most famous of which are the Tunguska, Putoransky, Great Arctic "Pillars". In addition, 39 reserves are planned to be created in the near future.
In the Krasnoyarsk Territory, they are also quite widely represented. Today there are 51 such objects in the region. These are lakes, rocks, sections of rivers, waterfalls and much more. Consider the most famous and visited of the natural monuments of the Krasnoyarsk Territory.
stone town
The nature of the Krasnoyarsk Territory will amaze any tourist with its grandeur and beauty. Vivid proof of this is the natural monument Kamenny Gorodok, located on one of the ridges of the Western Sayan. These are columnar rocks up to 40 meters high, impressive with their unusual shapes.
There are about a hundred pillars here. On one of them, which is called the Watchtower, there is an observation deck from which you can admire the general panorama of the entire Stone Town. An amazing sight: bizarre, as if built by a man, turrets emerge from the thick of the forest.
Stone town is a real paradise for rock climbers. For them, more than 60 routes of varying difficulty are organized here. After all, rocks of such a columnar shape are ideal for practicing this extreme sport.
Lake Oiskoe
"Water is life itself," as A. de Saint-Exupery once said. There is a whole "sea" of unique and beautiful water objects in the Krasnoyarsk Territory. One of these is Lake Oiskoe, a hydrological monument of nature. It is very loved by tourists because of its geographical accessibility - it is located right next to the road.
The lake gives rise to the Oya River - one of the tributaries of the Yenisei. The water in it is very cold, even in summer its temperature does not rise above +10 degrees. This is explained by the fact that Lake Oyskoye is located in the mountains - at around 1500 meters.
Shindinsky waterfall
Shindinsky (aka Chinzhebsky) waterfall received the status of a natural monument in 1987. The peak of high water here falls on May-June. The waterfall is extraordinarily beautiful: it falls in a powerful stream from a 30-meter steep ledge. The object is very accessible: you can drive directly to it by car. However, walking to it will bring much more impressions.
The width of the Shindinsky waterfall does not exceed ten meters. It is located at the foot of the picturesque Moscow Mountain, which, if desired, can also be conquered.
In conclusion...
The nature of the Krasnoyarsk Territory is very many-sided and diverse. Here you can see virgin forests, cold arctic plains, high mountain ranges, rocks and lakes, stormy rivers and waterfalls. Without a doubt, and even despite the acute environmental problems in the region, this marvelous region of Russia deserves to be visited.
crop production – culture scienceagricultural plants, andsuch breeding.("Explanatory Dictionary" S.I. Ozhegov)Plants , which the person himself planting, takes care of seedlings, with harvests , uses for food called cultural.
Crop growing is divided into several main branches: field cultivation, vegetable growing, fruit growing, floriculture.
field plants
A field is an open, treeless area in which cultivated plants are grown.
In the Perm Territory, grain crops are cultivated in the fields - rye, wheat, barley, oats, millet and buckwheat; vegetable crops - cabbage, carrots, beets, cucumbers, etc.; fodder crops - clover, vetch, peas, turnips, fodder beets, etc.; industrial crops - flax, potatoes.
Grain crops occupy the leading place in field crops. They are the basis for the development of other branches of agriculture and industry.
Among grain crops, the first place in terms of crops in the region is occupied by winter rye. It is cultivated in the north, in the central and southern regions. She is not afraid of cold weather, gives a good harvest and ripens early.
The second place in terms of crops of grain plants is occupied by wheat- the most valuable grain culture. She loves warmth, so she is cultivated in the southern part of the region.
Also grown in the northern regions barley and oats. In the south of the region - millet.

The grains of these plants are different from each other. For example, in rye, the grain is oblong, darker, in wheat - rounded, light.

Rye |
Rye flour (bake rye bread). The bran is fed to livestock. The straw goes to bedding. |
| Wheat |
Wheat flour (bake white bread, make confectionery, pasta). Wheat groats. Semolina. |
| Barley |
Barley flour. Barley grits. Pearl barley. |
| oats |
Oat flour. Oatmeal. Oatmeal. Hercules. |
| Millet | Millet groats. |
Plants from which bread is obtained are called bread plants.
Farmers have to spend a lot of time, effort, and money to grow grain crops, harvest crops and make bread. Therefore, it must be protected!
vegetable plants
Many vegetables are grown in the fields: cabbage, cucumbers, tomatoes, carrots, beets, radishes, radishes, onions, etc.
white cabbage often referred to as the "queen of vegetables".
|
Cabbage is very rich in vitamins, it is the basis of many dishes. It is eaten raw in salads, boiled in cabbage soup and borscht, stewed, sauerkraut, pies are baked with it. A lot of knowledge, labor and time must be devoted to the cultivation of this crop. Cabbage loves warmth and moisture. Her homeland is warm countries. Without preparation, cabbage will not have time to ripen during the relatively short Ural summer. Therefore, in early spring, when the field is still resting, people plant small blackish round seeds in greenhouses or hotbeds. They grow light green plants with two leaves (seedlings). |
When it becomes warm, seedlings are planted in fields and gardens. More and more leaves appear in plants. They hug each other tighter and tighter. This is how a head is formed. The inner sheets become juicy and white. There are 40 - 70 of them in a head of cabbage, and sometimes more, and they hold tightly, clinging to each other. Cabbage is harvested in autumn.
green cucumbers are a favorite vegetable plant. They are also good in winter pickled or salted.
|
|
Homeland cucumbers is India - a warm southern country. In our conditions, cucumbers give a good harvest if they are grown correctly. Cucumbers, like cabbages and tomatoes, are first planted in greenhouses or greenhouses, i.e. a person, as it were, artificially lengthens the summer for them. Then, with the onset of warm weather, they are transplanted into beds. From the seedlings grow low plants with creeping fragile stems, rough leaves, then yellow flowers bloom in the form of gramophones, and from them oblong, bright green juicy fruits are formed - cucumbers. |
spring seeds carrots, beets, radish sown directly on the beds and carefully watered. Small plants with green leaves appear. Their roots grow and become thicker and juicier. Nutrients accumulate in them: sugar, starch, vitamins. A month later, radishes ripen, and later - carrots and beets.

Plants that eat thickened roots are called root crops.
Onion- a valuable food product. It contains sugar and various vitamins. No meat or fish dish is complete without onions. Even in ancient times, onions were used as a healing plant for many diseases. Therefore, the people put together such a saying: "Onion from seven ailments." Our scientists have found that onions emit volatile substances (phytoncides), which kill putrefactive and pathogenic bacteria. Therefore, the use of onions in food has a healing value.
Onions eat green leaves and onions. Onions are native to dry steppes. The plant has adapted to store nutrients in the bulb during the dry period, which has wonderful properties. Many people store onions in the winter, and they do not dry out. In spring, the bulb sprouts easily and produces green leaves, and in greenhouses even in winter. She can easily winter. Sometimes they plant lek on the beds before winter. When the snow begins to melt, green leaves will already appear on the onion.
Potato- a valuable food product. It is often called "second bread". Potato is an important industrial crop. Starch, alcohol, molasses are obtained from it.
|
In the spring, a lot of potatoes are planted in the fields and gardens of the region. Herbaceous plants grow in the form of bushes with branched stems. They reach a height of 50 - 60 cm. In the middle of summer, white-pink and purple flowers form on them. Once upon a time, for the sake of these flowers, potatoes were grown to decorate clothes, not knowing about the properties of the underground parts of this plant. Watching the flowers, you can see that then round, green, small-seeded fruits resembling tomatoes appear from them. They can not be eaten, they are bitter and poisonous. |
|
In the underground part, potato stems produce underground white branches, at the ends of which thickenings are formed - young tubers. They gradually increase and fill with starch. In autumn, a rich crop of potato tubers is usually harvested.
|
The potato is native to South America. Potatoes were not immediately recognized in Russia. In the beginning, by mistake, they did not eat tubers, but bitter fruits. Therefore, many peasants did not want to plant it. Potato planting was distributed among the population by force, and this caused "potato riots" in ancient times. But gradually people mastered this culture and realized that potatoes are an indispensable food product. Now we grow many high-yielding varieties of potatoes. So, in potatoes, it is not the fruit that is eaten, but the modified underground part of the stem, called the tuber. |
fruit and berry plants
Due to cold and long winters, horticulture in the Perm region is underdeveloped. But still, gardeners grow sea buckthorn, cherries, garden strawberries, currants, raspberries, gooseberries, plums, apple trees, etc.

Horticulture is concentrated in the south of the region and in the suburbs of Perm, Chusovoy, Krasnokamsk, Okhansk and other settlements. But still, most of the fruits for the population are brought from other countries and the southern regions of our country.
Floriculture
From year to year, our cities and towns are decorated with flowers in the spring and summer. In the spring, when the snow just melts, the first perennials appear on the garden plots: snow-white narcissus s with an unforgettable delicate aroma, red and yellow tulips, purple irises.
The Krasnoyarsk Territory is located on the territory of Russia in Central and Eastern Siberia. It occupies a huge space (13.86% of the area of the Russian Federation). The region is located in the Yenisei River basin. Its northern part is washed by the Laptev Sea and the Kara Sea. The nature here is very diverse and rich, despite the cold climate. In winter, the air temperature ranges from -18 to -36 degrees. Summer is rather short and cool (from +10 to +20 degrees). There are 16,000 lakes in the central part of the Krasnoyarsk Territory, and almost 4,000 lakes in the southern part.
There are 450 species of plants on the territory of the region. The region is very large, so the vegetation is also diverse. On the coasts of the northern seas, you can meet representatives of the Arctic flora. To the south there is a strip of moss-lichen tundra. Then follows the shrub tundra, where dwarf birch, bearberry, polar willows and other species grow. Behind the Taimyr Peninsula, the forest-tundra begins. Almost 70% of the region's territory is covered with forests. Half of them are larch, 17% spruce and fir. Pine and cedar are also found here. On the territory of the region there are rare plants included in the Red Book. These include: three-notched incense, forest cleaner, small beauty, Daurian moon seed, real lady's slipper and others.
Fauna of the Krasnoyarsk Territory.
The Krasnoyarsk Territory is home to many invertebrates. Including thousands of species of insects and arachnids, they also include rare species. 18 species of insects and 1 mollusk are listed in the Red Book. The fauna of amphibians and reptiles here is only 11 species. Frogs, snakes and lizards live in the region.
370 species of birds inhabit the expanses of the Krasnoyarsk Territory. Dozens of species are of commercial importance. Gulls and cormorants live on the sea coast, partridges live in the tundra, black grouse, capercaillie and hazel grouse live in the forests. The lakes were chosen by flocks of geese and ducks. The forest is also full of various feathered inhabitants: sparrows, woodpeckers, bullfinches, owls, pigeons, etc. There are so many birds here that it is impossible to list them.
There are many fish and lampreys in the rivers and lakes of the Krasnoyarsk Territory. About 30 species of fish are of commercial importance (sturgeon, taimen, whitefish, sterlet, grayling, etc.). Of these, valek, taimen and whitefish are listed in the Red Book.
There are 89 species of mammals living in the region. Polar bears, seals and walruses live on the coast of the Arctic Ocean. Arctic foxes, lemmings and wild reindeer live in the tundra.
