Literature data and the results of original research on the effect of biological nitrogen and phosphorus application on physiological processes, productivity and grain quality of lentils are presented. It has been shown that biological nitrogen and phosphorus, which the plant receives through plant-microbial interactions or metabolic conversion of hardly soluble compounds into available forms by microorganisms, can regulate physiological processes, crop yield and quality. It is noted that the use of microbiological preparations of phosphate- and nitrogen-mobilising microorganisms in lentil cultivation technologies is an integral part of organic and bioorganic farming, which are intensively developing in Ukraine. Their spreading is one of the ways to obtain environmentally friendly crop production. The use of microbiological preparations improves the sowing qualities of lentil seeds, its mineral nutrition, affects metabolism, photosynthesis, content of proteins, fats, starch and fibre, as well as macro- and microelements, and increases plant resistance to adverse biotic and abiotic environmental factors. The rates of application of mineral nitrogen and phosphorus fertilizers for the planned lentil crop, taking into account the content of nutrients in the soil and the volume of their supply due to microorganisms introduced into the agrocenosis with agronomically useful properties vere calculated. Morphological, physiological and biochemical changes in lentil plants under the use of microbiological preparations lead to a statistically significant increase in grain yield, and improve its quality. The maximum increase in the content of phosphorus and nitrogen in lentil plants, nitrogen-fixing activity of symbiotic systems formed with their participation, as well as the net photosynthetic efficiency, grain yield and quality indicate were established under the complex pre-sowing inoculation by the mycorrhizal fungus Glomus sp. P-3 with rhizobophyte and polymyxobacterin.
