The existing methodical approaches to the assessment of the farming system efficiency and agricultural lands are based on the physical hectares not taking into account quality of the plots, and thus it distorts the reliability of the calculation of indices. The existing methods of determination of cadastral price of the agricultural lands comprise the variety of qualitative indicators. In connection with this we suggest the methods of assessment of the farming system efficiency in accordance with the output factors per 1 ruble of cadastral value of the agricultural lands: gross (commodity) output of crop production (technologic efficiency coefficient of land resources); income of production and realization of crop production and animal husbandry products with and without state support (land resources net profit ratio with and without state support), level of state support efficiency. For comparison, the index method is used. The researches prove that indices taking into account cadastral assessment of land resources differ from indices calculated in accordance with physical values and allow judging of influence of land resources quality on technological as well as on economic result, and also assess comparative level and efficiency of state support rendered. The method implies carrying out comparative assessment of efficiency of developing and existing farming systems in regard to agricultural enterprises, regions, agricultural zones and also assessment of the level and efficiency of state support using indices of the cadastral assessment.

The purpose of the article is to study the main problems of lending to agro-industrial enterprises with state support in market relations and propose measures to implement a new mechanism of subsidized and compensatory budget support for agriculture, aimed at its effective functioning. Historically, Ukraine is an agro-industrial country with rich natural resources and opportunities. However, to make a decent profit, the agro-industrial complex needs regular cash infusions and complete modernization. Given these factors, farmers in Ukraine are increasingly resorting to such an ancillary method as a loan for agricultural development. The long history of the Ukrainian economy, multiplied by current trends in crop production and animal husbandry, forces banks to consider lending to agriculture as a promising profitable business, which can and should be lent. The urgency of the study is due to the growing need to address one of the priority sectors of the economy-agriculture, by increasing the role and availability of credit for farmers, improving lending conditions, improving the efficiency of monetary institutions lending to agricultural enterprises, as well as development forms of their support. Problems of improving the lending system, investment activity of enterprises, lending mechanism and state regulation in the field of agriculture were covered in the works of a number of scientists and practitioners: G. Bezorna, H. Borkhunov, I. Buzdalov, A. Gataulin, A. Golovanov, A. Gordeeva, L. Kolichev, K. Koroleva, A. Kupavykh, D. Murzin, E. Mezentsev, A. Ponomareva, E. Sagaidak, A. Sidoruk, Y. Trushin, D. Epstein and some others. In the foreign economic literature, the main attention is paid to the forms of state support for agricultural producers, assessment of the impact of subsidies in terms of efficient use of public funds and the functioning of agricultural banks, but at the level of microfinance. These problems are reflected in the works of foreign authors: N. Gow, K. Hoff, M. Zeller, A. Sarris, J. Swinnen, J. Stiglitz, J. Yaron, M. Schreiner, Le Min Tu, and others. The changing conditions of the market environment pose new challenges to the subjects of credit relations, and then there are problems of agricultural lending in the changing conditions of the country’s economy, which need to be addressed. Formulation of the goals of the article (task statement). The purpose of the article is to generalize the theory and practice of agricultural lending when there are new economic relations, financial and credit opportunities of the Ukrainian economy.

The development of agriculture largely depends on the creation of favorable state economic conditions, including in the form of state support for rural producers. The paper analyzes the results of state support of farmers of the Orenburg region over the past three years. In the Orenburg region, there is a decrease in state support. The downward trend has caused negative performance of agricultural enterprises. State support for the livestock industry has decreased.The experience of previous years has shown the need for public investment in animal husbandry. Crop production in the region absorbs half of public funds. In our opinion, crop production of the Orenburg region copes for a long period without the participation of the state. Due to underfunding of livestock in the region, the third part of agricultural organizations in the region is unprofitable. In 2018, the index of agricultural production decreased by ten percentage points compared to 2017. Research in the work, the structure of public investment, is of scientific interest, and the conclusions drawn are of practical importance for the regulation and management of state support. This is important not only for agriculture in the Orenburg region, but also for agricultural production in other regions of the Russian Federation.The increase in state investments in crop production in the regions of the Russian Federation speaks about the imperfection of land relations. Most of the rural producers work on leased land. Public finances settle with landowners, most often at the helm of state power or criminals.

The effects of farming system (organic vs. conventional) and crop rotation (annual grain vs. grain-forage) on the mineral nutrient content of wheat (Triticum aestivum) grain was tested in a long-term field study in Manitoba. Crop rotation affected phosphorus (P), manganese (Mn) and copper (Cu) concentrations, while system affected nitrogen (N) and sulphur (S) concentrations. Interactive effects were observed for N, P, S, and zinc (Zn). This preliminary study demonstrates that differences in nutrient content between organic and conventional wheat depend on crop rotation and suggests that crop rotation should be considered in studies comparing the quality of organic and conventional produce.Key words: Crop rotation, organic crop production, mineral nutrient content, wheat

The article describes overall useful agricultural soil in Azerbaijan, as well as the level use in crop production and animal husbandry, as well as the quality and evaluation of variety of crops in accordance with a system of 100 points under the land cadastre. To determine the efficient level of useful agricultural soils, first of all, the main types and subtypes of soil and their cultivated area used in agricultural production were identified. Data was calculated on the overall soil fund of the republic, the agricultural region and its composition (structure), the level of use of each type and subtype of soil in agriculture, as well as in crop production and animal husbandry. Calculations show that the total utilization rate in agriculture varies between 0.52 and 0.98. To assess the quality of the type and subtype of soil used in agricultural production, to assess the quality of various plants, a system of 100 points was used, and it was proposed to combine the soil in 10 agricultural production groups instead of 5 There are ways to calculate the “Comparative soil value” (TMDƏ) for a specific territory to simplify and facilitate the practical use of materials from agricultural soil groups. Using the data obtained from the survey, any farm manager can plan to obtain higher yields per unit area with minimal and less labor, and can also determine the need of plants for fertilizers depending on soil quality.

Global climate change factors and socio-economic consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic affect the current development of the agri-food sector of the Southern region of Ukraine. Agriculture is the main component of the agri-food sector. Economic development, food security of the region, living standards depend on agriculture. Crop and animal husbandry has a high level of development in the Southern region of Ukraine. The index of agricultural products has been fluctuating constantly in recent years. These oscillations have directions of decrease and directions of increase. However, the development of the agri-food sector has significantly decreased this year. The reason for the decrease is very negative climatic conditions, in particular, drought. Yields have fallen sharply, and companies are in a financial crisis. The state can help the affected enterprises and provide state support. Climatic and market conditions determine the need to adjust the development of the agri-food sector. New competitive varieties of grain are being introduced, which are able to ensure sustainable yields of high quality products in arid conditions of the steppe zone of southern Ukraine, work is being carried out on breeding highly productive breeds of sheep, sunflower hybrids are being created. It is important to introduce new cultures for the Southern region of Ukraine. Their cultivation should increase yields in arid climates. It is advisable to grow olives and make olive oil. The region has favorable conditions for growing peanuts, amaranth, saffron, sweet potatoes, chickpeas, asparagus, almonds. It is im-portant to improve the marketing component of traditional crops. The systematic implementation of the state policy of sustainable inno-vation and investment recovery and development with the involvement of public funds and resources of private business will contribute to ensuring the further development of the agri-food sector of the Southern region of Ukraine. The interaction between scientists, private enterprises, farmers, the state and other participants in ensuring the development of the agri-food sector on the basis of partnership is important. This interaction will help improve the implementation of the strategy for improving the agri-food sector. Similar trends will occur in the coming years. Comprehensive strategic reform of the agri-food sector of the southern region of Ukraine is necessary. This includes the improvement of traditional agricultural products. The introduction of innovations is crucial for further development. These measures will lead to the expansion of markets and economic growth.Keywords: agro-food sphere, agriculture, crop production, animal husbandry, viticulture, state support, innovations. Сучасний розвиток агропродовольчої сфери Південного регіону України обумовлений глобальними факторами зміни клімату та соціально-економічними наслідками пандемії COVID-19. Головною складовою агропродовольчої сфери є сільське господарство, яке має значний рівень розвитку в областях Південного регіону України. Протягом останніх років спостерігається щорічні коливання індексу сільськогосподарської продукції як у напрямках зменшення, так і збільшення показників. Однак, визначальні зміни у розвитку відбулись у поточному році, що обумовлене вкрай негативним впливом кліматичних умов на врожайність всіх основних сільськогосподарських культур та призвело до зменшення прибуткові кризового фінансового стану значної кількості господарств, які потребують державної підтримки для подальшого функціонування. Подібні тенденції будуть спостерігатись і в наступні роки, що вимагає комплексного стратегічного реформування агропродовольчої сфери Південного регіону України у напрямку удосконалення традиційної продукції, запровадження інновацій з метою розширення існуючих і формування нових ринків збуту. Ключові слова: агропродовольча сфера, сільське господарство, рослинництво, тваринництво, виноградарство, державна підтримка, інновації.

AbstractThis paper discusses data on plant-nutrient conservation in Sweden between 1950 and 1980 and on plant-nutrient balances in conventional and alternative farming. The amounts of plant nutrients supplied in the form of artificial fertilizer in Sweden increased severalfold between 1950 and 1980. The amounts of N and P applied were four times higher than those recovered in agricultural products. This difference not only represents a loss to farmers but also a burden on the environment. This problem is a consequence of the increased separation of crop management from animal husbandry in Sweden. The flow of plant nutrients through the agroecosystem can be represented as follows: Artificial Fertilizers- > Crop Production-> Animal Husbandry- > Losses (air, water, or immobilization).This paper suggests that all farms in Sweden can operate effectively without relying on applications of highly soluble plant nutrients. By recirculating plant nutrients in manure and cultivating nitrogen-fixing species, the need for artificial fertilizers can be eliminated while minimizing nutrient losses and their associated adverse effects on the environment. Successful alternative farms provide practical examples of how a farming system can eliminate its dependence on applications of highly soluble plant nutrients by stressing effective nutrient economy and biological activity. The strategies they use include: matching animal management practices to the farm's own production of feed, thereby reducing net removal of plant nutrients per unit area (in Sweden 0.6–0.8 animal units per ha); minimizing nutrient losses through careful manure management and by using cover crops; and supplying N by nitrogen-fixing ley species, and P and K by soil weathering and by applying supplementary soil improvement materials.

This study evaluated the use of young coconut water as a diluent on liquid semen quality of Boer goat after cold storage. This study was carried out for 3 months at Sumber Sekar Laboratory, Faculty of Animal Husbandry, University of Brawijaya, Malang. The semen was collected from 3 Boer bucks aged at 3 to 5 years old. The semen collection was done once a week with the aid of artificial vagina. The diluents used were young Viridis coconut (5 to 7 months old) and tris aminomethane. The method used was an experiment in a randomized block design with 2 treatments and 10 replicates. The treatments used were T0: tris aminomethane + 10% egg yolk (control) and T1:  young Viridis coconut water + 10% egg yolk. Data were analyzed by analysis of variance using Genstat 18 software. The variables measured were sperm individual motility, viability, and abnormality. The results showed that the sperm individual motility in T1 survived up to 4 days (40.5± 24.3%), the best viability at 5 days (42.0±24.6%),  while the lowest abnormality at 7 days (1.31±0.6). It could be concluded that: 1. Tris aminomethane diluent has higher quality with the storage length up to 9 days, 2. Young Viridis coconut water diluent could preserve liquid semen quality of Boer goat up to 4 days for sperm motility and 5 days for sperm viability.Keywords: diluents, coconut water, viridis variety
