Abstract

Several man-made accidents at nuclear power plants and nuclear tests in recent years have highlighted the need to develop countermeasures that can effectively reduce the absorption of radionuclides by grape plants in viticulture. These measures should be cost-effective and easy to implement in everyday agricultural practice. To evaluate these parameters, we conducted experiments on 137Cs contaminated soil. Our studies revealed the dynamics of the distribution of radionuclide contamination across the vegetative parts of the grapevine, the research also highlights the significance of vertical zone depth for the penetration of radiocesium into the plant. It was concluded that shifting the depth of the space between the rows of the vineyard by the deep plow makes it possible to move the soil layer contaminated with radionuclides into relatively deep layers, which will significantly reduce the penetration of radionuclides into the grape plant.
