The Impact

The article studies the role of marketing management in the activity of agricultural enterprises. The agricultural sector is one of the key sectors of the Ukrainian economy, the core component of which is agricultural production. The findings of the article show the fact that a significant number of agricultural enterprises are unprofitable, with their share in the total number of enterprises accounting for 13.3%. Their performance largely depends on the impact of the extremely complex, dynamic and uncertain environment. The article suggests that only the businesses possessing the ability of adequate adjustment to the environment with taking precautions against negative effects timely and using opportunities the fullest ensure their competitiveness and profitability of their activity in the long run. The article determines marketing management tools to be relevant for ensuring successful operation of agricultural enterprises under modern conditions, for there is a need to find new approaches to managing enterprise activities. The article reveals the essence of marketing management; offers the interpretations of the concepts of "marketing management" and "management of marketing" given by the Ukrainian scientists and foreign researchers; and studies the difference between them. The article suggests that marketing management is a broader concept than management of marketing due to the fact that it is management of all general and individual functions of enterprise, as well as all divisions of enterprise on the basis of marketing. Marketing management considers marketing and management inseparably - they also mutually penetrate and complement each other. The main goal of marketing management is to increase profitability of enterprise by achieving maximum customer satisfaction. Based on the generalization of different views of scientists, the main stages of a marketing management process at agricultural enterprise are identified and characterized, including analysis of internal and external environment, selection of target market segments, marketing strategy formation, marketing complex development, organizational structure construction, marketing management program formation and marketing management control and analysis. The process of marketing management at agricultural enterprise contains a number of specific procedures aimed at research and formation of the demand of target consumers and comprehensive satisfaction of their needs. The findings of the research prove that the use of marketing management tools will help ensure the market orientation of agricultural enterprise, which provides a focus on success, timely adaptation to the environment, gaining a leading position in the market, providing competitive advantage.

The Impact

Domestic agricultural enterprises do not have a high level of innovation activity, however, stable and competitive operation of an agricultural enterprise is impossible without its innovative activity. Stabilization of the situation in the agricultural sector with the current level of competition and constant technological variables, the innovative vector of development is the driving component of economic growth. Activation of innovation of domestic agricultural enterprises is one of the important prerequisites for stability and sustainable socio-economic development of the country. Consequently, the effective functioning of the livestock industry is possible only under the conditions of systemic and purposeful innovation aimed at finding a variety of new opportunities provided by the business environment. The innovation process in domestic animal husbandry is clearly aimed at the end result - a certain socio-economic, technical or environmental effects. The efficiency of animal husbandry is determined after the introduction of innovation, calculated by the method of evaluation of investment projects. On the example of Lviv region we analyzed the conditions of innovative activity in animal husbandry, assessed the modern innovative potential of the industry, established the features of its innovation and investment activities. SWOT-analysis is an important component of assessing the position of livestock enterprises in the region. It should be recognized that the innovative activity of livestock enterprises is mainly associated with the final stage of the innovation process – the development of innovations. In 2020, farms of all categories of Lviv region compared to 2019 decreased meat production (sales for slaughter of farm animals in live weight) by 1.6 %, milk – by 4.7 %, eggs – by 0.3 %. cattle on farms of all categories on January 1, 2021 amounted to 144.4 thousand heads (including cows – 86.2 thousand heads), pigs – 346.1 thousand heads, poultry – 10.5 million. heads. Compared to January 1, 2020, the number of poultry increased by 5.7 %, pigs – by 4.1 %, the number of cattle decreased by 8.2 % (including cows – by 8.6 %). Innovative activity of the livestock industry is formed under the influence of the domestic innovation system and has its own specifics, which is caused by the peculiarities of agriculture. Most innovative projects are aimed at introducing innovations that contribute to the intensification of animal husbandry and increase the competitiveness of products. Thus, on the basis of innovative development of animal husbandry it is possible to achieve a significant increase in the competitiveness of agricultural enterprises, which will allow Ukrainian producers to achieve significant results in world markets for agricultural products.

The purpose of this article is to investigate the current state and dynamics of technical, energy capacities, labor resources and wages in Ukrainian agricultural enterprises, the impact of these indicators on efficiency of agricultural production, indicators of development and competitiveness of products on the domestic and foreign markets. The moral and physical deterioration of the equipment available at the farms is determined, which does not contribute to the increase of labor productivity and to obtaining consistently high economic results. On the basis of the dynamics of the analyzed statistical data, the problem of providing agricultural producers with labor resources was confirmed against the background of deepening of depopulation processes in the countryside, which led to the deterioration of quantitative and qualitative characteristics of human resources. Indicators of development and production rates of the agro-industrial complex of Ukraine have been investigated, that showed a low level of innovation implementation. Mathematical formalization of the relationship between the dynamics of changes in the gross value added indicators and the volume of sales of agricultural products is carried out. Based on the analysis of innovative activity indicators in the agricultural sector of Ukraine and the consistent assessment of the adequacy of linear and nonlinear pair equations, the model specification is presented, which is presented in the form of linear pair regression, which confirms the existence of a direct link between changes in the volume of sales in the agrarian sector.

Paired T Test

We assessed the impact of a single intra-muscular injection of vitamins A and E on oocyte quality and yield and early embryo development in Bos indicus cows. Twenty Bos indicus cows, of Gyr, Brahman, and Nellore breeds, weighing between 450 and 600 kg were subjected to ovum pick-up (OPU). Oocytes were collected in Dulbecco’s PBS (DBPS) containing heparin and antibiotics, counted, and morphologically classified. Viable oocytes were taken to the laboratory, in vitro matured for 24 h and in vitro fertilized using 25 million sperm mL–1. After 168 h of incubation (39°C, 5% CO2), viable embryos were counted and classified. Then, after 10 days, the cows received an intra-muscular injection of 1 000 000 UI of vitamin A and 1 g of vitamin E, and, after 12 days, were again subjected to the same procedure described above. Differences in oocyte yield and embryo development were analysed using paired t-test. The 40 OPUs from 20 cows yielded a total of 520 oocytes. Nellore and Brahman cows produced more embryos/cow (P < 0.01) compared with Gyr. After vitamin treatment, the cows produced more oocytes (n = 303; P < 0.01) compared with the previous OPU (n = 217), resulting in 95 more viable oocytes (31%). Brahman, Gyr, and Nellore cows yielded 11.2 ± 1.8, 8.5 ± 1.5, and 12.0 ± 2.6 oocytes before vitamin treatment, respectively. From those oocytes, 224 embryos were obtained, 89 before vitamin injection and 135 after treatment (P < 0.02), with 36 more embryos (40%) produced. Irrespective of breed, cows responded equally to vitamin injection. A single parenteral injection of vitamins A and E had a significant positive effect on oocyte yield after OPU and in vitro embryo development on Bos indicus cows. We suggest that this effect is probably due to the positive influence of retinoids on oocyte and embryo development.

We analyzed the impact of performance appraisal purpose on employees' proactive behavior, and explored the roles of psychological ownership and self-efficacy as mediators in this relationship. We conducted a survey with 512 employees of enterprises in 4 cities in China. The results of analysis of the data collected showed that an evaluative performance appraisal had a negative influence on the employees' proactive behavior whereas a developmental performance appraisal had a positive influence. Psychological ownership and self-efficacy were found to have an intermediary role between performance appraisal purpose and the employees' proactive behavior. Self-efficacy had a significant positive effect on psychological ownership. Implications of these results for theory and management practice are discussed.

Investing in agro-industrial enterprises ensures the competitiveness of agro-industrial formations through the use of innovations to improve their positions in both domestic and foreign markets; achieving economic and food security; improving the social infrastructure of the village translator. Investment activity is a determining factor in the effectiveness of the formation and use of investment potential of agricultural enterprises. The analysis of statistical data on the volume of investments in agricultural enterprises of Lviv region at the expense of district budgets in 2019–2020 indicates an increase in investment resources invested in Horodok, Zolochiv and Stryj districts. However, the total approved amount of investments in the region in 2020 (1913.0 thousand UAH) decreased by 2.3 times compared to the funded volume in 2019 (4394.9 thousand UAH), which indicates the unstable rate of investment activity of investments in agro-industrial enterprises in terms of districts of Lviv region. During 2016–2020, there is a positive trend to increase the share of investments in the agro-industrial complex of Lviv region from the budgets of all levels, which, given the leading role of the national agricultural sector, is quite natural. This figure will reach its maximum value in 2020, which is 15.3 more than in 2016, at the expense of the state budget and 1.6 times more – at the expense of the regional budget. During 2019 (52 enterprises) 2.5 times compared to 2016 (22 enterprises) increased the number of agricultural enterprises in Lviv region, which used the program of interest compensation on loans in the amount of 68.4 million UAH. at the expense of the regional budget, which is 3.1 times more than in 2016 (UAH 22.0 million). The program of compensation of interest on loans from the state budget in 2019 was used by 41 enterprises of the agro-industrial complex of Lviv region, which is 3.2 shirts more than in 2016. However, funding decreased from UAH 334.1 million. in 2016 to UAH 173.8 million. in 2019. In 2019, UAH 11.5 million was financed for the implementation of business plans at the expense of soft loans of Lviv region. at the expense of the state budget and UAH 6.8 million. at the expense of the local budget. This allowed 34 businesses to purchase 14 units of agricultural machinery, plant 18.7 hectares of orchards and berries, purchase 24 heads of breeding animals, 21 formations to modernize technological processes and create an additional 30 jobs. Investments are an important guarantee of effective economic development of any enterprise, region, country. At the present stage, the main task is to take all possible measures to create an attractive investment climate and intensify investment processes at both the regional and national levels.
