The authors provided field-proven investigations on the influence of manure, peat, lake silt and their combinations on 90Sr uptake in barley, corn and potato. The saturation of soil with organic substance and soil acidity reduction have resulted in the drop of 90Sr accumulation in plants. At the start of the experiment, the 90Sr specific activity of barley grain varied from 75 Bk/kg to 132 Bk/kg. After 3 years of fertizer application, the 90Sr content in barley grain dropped to 39 Bk/kg. Within certain period of time the authors have not revealed any increase in 90Sr accum,ulation in basic field cultures
