The electric power industry is a basic sector of Russia's economy that creates necessary conditions for the activity of productive forces and life of the population. The results of electric power industry reorganization in our country are rather ambiguous. The structural changes were carried without taking the vertical integration principles in consideration, which had a significant impact on the pricing policy and investment programs. The results of studying the current state of the sector in the Russian Federation are presented, and recommendations on solving the existing problems based on the vertical integration principles are given. It is pointed out that vertically integrated companies that manage generation, distribution, transmission, and sales do not come in contradiction with the market conditions and, what is more, guarantee the power supply reliability. The relevance of this problem is stemming from the fact that the prices for electricity have a significant influence on the country economy as a whole. Under the currently existing conditions of the rapidly changing world policy, it is especially important to use vertical integration for gaining the maximum efficiency. Thus, these principles are the basis for creating an optimal market structure.

Free ranging cattle in the Accra Plains of Ghana have an almost all grass diet during the rainy season when lush grass abounds (Fianu, 1966). Depending on the ecological status of the grassland, the prominent species include Andropogon gayanus, Brachiaria falcifera, Panicum maximum, Schizachyrium schweinfurthii and Vetiveria fulvibarbis. On bush fallows, grasses of lower successional status, e.g. Chloris and Digitaria spp., are grazed.At the start of the rainy season (March-April), the young herbage may contain as much as 2.8% N. As the plant matures, however, the N content declines rapidly below critical levels, e.g. 0.95-1.3% at 18 weeks (Fianu and Winch, 1980) and 0.6-0.8% at 38 weeks (Lansbury, Rose Innes and Mabey, 1965).Such mature grass is burnt in the dry season to induce a more nutritious flush but hard grazing and slashing also induce equally nutritious regrowth (Fianu and Winch, 1980).

Outcomes of the Lake Krivoye main algal characteristic studies have been presented. The lake is located in Novosibirsk Oblast Karasuk Rayon and relates to the Karasuk River cultural landscape. There are very few easily accesible materials concerning the lake status, and the most of tham are dated back to the middle of the past century. Therefore, the lake contemporary ecological status is of special interest. Within the framework ofthis study the phytoplankton species composition and its seasonal succession have been investigated. Analysis of the qualitative development (abundance, biomass, etc.) has been performed, the role of the main algae divisions in its formation has been considered. In the process of studying sets of the main predominate species for each stage of selection has been found and the species diversity and community uniformity indices have been analysed. Such a significant indicator of the hydrocoles community morpho/functional structure as dimesional cell characteristics has been discussed. The pollution level has been assessed on the basis of the saprogenic/biological analysis data and the water quality class gas been determined.

The main stages of the formation of ecological paradigms of environmental management are considered, the fundamental role of V.V. Dokuchaev ideas and the importance of following V.I. Vernadskiy works in their development are shown. The role of scientists of the Club of Rome in the development of the ideology of sustainable development and its controversial perception by the world scientific community is reflected. The analysis of the existing paradigms, in particular of the co-evolutionary paradigm, and its implementation in the theory and practice of adaptive-landscape farming systems is given. The priority tasks for its improvement are defined. Further prospects for its development are considered in the framework of the proposed constructive-biospheric paradigm of environmental management, which implies the creation of a network of agricultural landscapes (agricultural, water, land reclamation, agro-industrial, rural forestry, livestock, residential) in compliance with the ecological status of the territory. The grouping of ecological functions of the landscape and mechanisms of their transformation into socio-economic functions are considered as tools for landscape-ecological planning and design.
