Questions of settling and development of territory of Ukraine during prehistoric time are considered. Specialities of development of agriculture and cattle breeding by different archaeological cultures in the steppe zone depending on paleogeographic stages are covered. Features of the development of agriculture in the steppe zone of Ukraine are determined primarily by physical and geographical factors and, above all, the climate, the nature of the relief, the specifics of vegetation and soil cover. At the same time the Ukrainian steppe of thousand years was arena on which arose, some time existed, and then disappeared, practically leaving nothing after itself ethnic cultures which were engaged mainly in cattle breeding. Key words: paleogeography, agriculture, cattle breeding, steppe zone.

The problems of genesis and classification of chernozems of Galicia is being considerated within the common theory of the evolution of chernozems of the forest-steppe zone of Ukraine. In the soilbotanical conditions of the West forest-steppe of Ukraine the character and trend direction of the last Holocene evolution of chernozems is diverse. Key words: chernozems, pheozems, soil cover, Galicia, soil evolution, classification, soil horizon, morphological features.

Landscape structure is considered forests of the national park «Ugra» Kaluga region. Are identified relationships between location, which is determined by the shape mesorelief and composition of the top layer of soil-forming rocks - on the one hand, and long-term conditions of vegetation and soil - on the other. Key words: structure of forest landscapes, location, long-term condition, mesorelief, parent rocks, vegetation, soil cover.

The possibilities of using data of Earth remote sensing for the construction of a geomorphological profile for the purpose of agroecological assessment of soil cover patterns and subsequent land typification as a basis for the design of adaptive landscape agriculture in the Krasnoyarsk Territory are considered. The geomorphological profile illustrates the features of the relief and regularities in the distribution of soil structures with a certain set of agro-ecological conditions and limiting factors that determine the choice of agro-technologies and farming systems.

The object of this research is the interaction of the forest and forest-steppe habitat of Eastern Europe during the Golden Horde. The subject of this research is the interaction of the Chiyalik culture, formed in the forest-steppe zone of Volga-Ural region and the Golden Horde culture formed in the steppe zone of Western Eurasia. The monuments of Chiyalik culture – subsoil burial grounds and ancient settlements – are located in the valleys of the Rivers Kama, Belaya, Ika, Dema, Chermasan, Suni and other rivers in the eastern parts of modern Tatarstan and northwestern parts of the modern Bashkortostan, dating back from XII–XIV centuries. The bearers of Chiyalik culture were Ugric by origin, who have undergone Turkization and Islamization. The article explores the narrative sources that contain records on the relations between Uralic Ugric Peoples and Mongols, archaeological data on the objects of the Golden Horde import found on the monuments of Chiyalik culture. Special attention is given to the comparative analysis of narrative sources and archaeological data on the problem of interaction of Chiyalik culture and the Golden Horde as the synchronous historical phenomena. Narrative sources indicate the conquest of the territory of Chiyalik culture by the Mongols, tribute and labor conscriptions carried out by the local population in favor of the conquerors. The objects of the Golden Horde were detected on the settlement monuments: silver earrings and coins were found in Ufa-II settlement; copper coins were found in Iske–aul settlement; pottery and copper coins were found in Podymalovo-I settlement. Silver Golden Horde coins were found in the Taktalachuk and Azmetyevsky burial grounds. The author’s special contribution to this research lies in the conclusion that the paucity of findings is explained by the absence of large settlements, and the Muslim funeral rite. The novelty consists in establishment of the fact of the unilateral impact of the Golden Horde culture upon the Chiyalik culture: in exchange for the items of the Golden Horde import, were exported the raw materials, items of cattle breeding, hunting and beekeeping.

<p><em>The research was conducted to calculate the break even point (BEP) of cattle breeding farm. Research was done from January to May 2007, located in Sleman District. Survey methods was done to collect primary data at the farm level and secondary data from related institution. Purposive sampling was applied to sellect farmers’ respondent. The BEP with calf sales calculation of keeping Simmental, Ongole and Limousine grade cattle were 8, 9 and 7 cows per farmer respectively, which mean that farmers will annually benefited from keeping cattle when the number of cows was larger than those of BEP.</em></p><p><em> </em></p><p><em>Key words : cattle breeding farm, BEP analysis</em></p>

The article presents the results of the evaluation agrophysical properties of agrochernozems under influence of No-Till management system. The research was conducted in the Trans-Ural Plain-Steppe Zone of the Republic of Bashkortostan (Russia). The territory is located in the zone of risky agriculture and is arid. The territory characterized by a high level of agricultural use. Various degradation processes are observed in the soil cover. Such parameters as bulk density, soil-hydrological constants, structural-aggregate composition and water resistance of aggregates are studied.

"The contemporary direction of natural pedogenesis/soil science is ancient anthropogenic impact and climate fluctuations changes. A large number of settlements in the river valleys are unique objects with a long history of development and modern soil cover formation. We studied the soil between the dwellings for a small settlement Zarya of the Bronze Age. The settlement was part of the economic zone of cattle breeding (horses and cows and sheep) of the large early Bronze Age fortified city Sarym-Sakla, one of the country's Proto-Iranian Cities of the Trans-Ural Plateau. The activity of ancient societies changed the terrestrial ecosystem functioning at macro and microscales. Increased heterogeneity of microrelief forms led to the diversity of soil cover. We found the unusual soil types on microelevations and microdepressions. The enrichment of the cultural layer with phosphorus compounds was revealed, and the hypothesis of the formation of a ""reverse"" ratio of chernozems-solonetzes of the soil cover of the low above-floodplain terrace as a consequence of several stages of ancient anthropogenic pressure and climatic aridization was confirmed in this area. We focused on the determination of organic carbon content, magnetic susceptibility, salt composition, cation exchange capacity, and the distribution of mobile phosphates along the soil profile as possible indicators of ancient anthropogenic influence. The degree of soil properties changes during the anthropogenic impact is commensurate with their transformation in the natural evolution of centuries and even several millennia. Past anthropogenic changes leave a mark in the history of the development of the soil cover predetermining the modern danger of the degradation phenomena. Moreover, we draw parallels in the history of ecosystems formation and outlined tasks for further research."

The article presents the findings on the dynamics of the live weight of calves of various breeds in similar climatic conditions in arid regions of the Stavropol Krai of Russia and the steppe zone of Ukraine. It has been established that the live weight of calves of the Hereford, Kazakh white-headed and Kalmyk breeds when raised according to the traditional technology of beef cattle breeding when calves are sucked under cows up to 6-7 months of age, is in relationship with the milk qualities of mothers. At the same time, the live weight of the gray Ukrainian calves was interrelated regarding the live weight at birth and the feeding technology. A positive relationship was shown in the live weight of calves at birth and during their implementation at 15 and 18 months of age. Most effectively animals used pasture fodder in spring and summer. In an arid climate, it is more appropriate to breed specialized cattle belonging to the Hereford breed and then sell them for breeding in other farms in the region.
