This article describes the effect of various doses of mineral fertilizers with trace elements based on pure silicon – “Nanosilicon” on corn plants. It is important to point out that new and perfect varieties are created every year, although, without the use of fertilizers, they will not be able to give the maximum yield. The main nutrients are nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, often forgetting silicon, even though it also plays an important role in growth and development, as well as in the crop yield; in this research, we studied corn in the central zone of the Krasnodar Territory. Fertilizer “Nanosilicon” increased the height of corn plants by an average of 17 cm or 9.9 %; wet weight by 100.4 g/plant or 17.5 %; yield, as one of the main indicators, by 7.68 kg/ha or 15.4 %.
