It is shown that the use of the AKM preparation increased germination, number of lateral stems of winter wheat Kharus sort, improved the adaptive capacity of plants to conditions of winter hibernation. Foliar treatment of crops stimulated the biological productivity of wheat, which increased the output of cash crops. Keywords: winter wheat, productivity, antioxidant. Introduction. One of the priority research trends for agricultural production is a problem of crops’ resistance to stress and its productivity enhance. Salinization is one of the abiotic factors that acquires a significant influence in the Ukrainian Azov areas. Salt stress injures the vital functions, intensifies peroxidation, inhibits plant growth and reduces yields. The use of growth regulators of antioxidant type is the method to stimulate plants salt resistance, due to the fact that significant acreage of food cereals and wheat, particularly in Ukraine are at soils with varying degrees of salinity [1]. In previous studies noted the effectiveness of antioxidant composition AKM to stimulate seed germination and increase the yield [2,3]. The AKM preparation contains a powerful antioxidant ionol (2,6-di-tretbutyl-4-methyl-phenol) and aprotonic elicitor - dymetylsulfuroxid that allows to influence the physiological and biochemical processes, weakening the negative effects of stress. A significant reserve of grain cereal crops intensification with traditional activities is the introduction of
