The paper deals with the study of the relationship between agricultural development of and agricultural engineering. Production output of certain types of machines and equipment for agriculture are examined. The dynamics of production performance in plant growing and stockbreeding is analyzed. The dynamics of such agricultural development indices as net income, subsidies, taxes, net value added, fixed capital application, etc. are considered. The tripling of output and a steady growth of net profit of agricultural producers are established. It is proven that farm equipment upgrading is less active than net income growth, and thus it was determined that enterprises have the necessary financial resources to generate demand for agricultural machinery. The peculiarities of agricultural machinery production in Ukraine at the present stage are revealed, in particular the causes and consequences of such a situation in production machinery for agricultural enterprises. Two opposite trends in agricultural machinery production are identified, namely, the decline in the production of complex, expensive machinery and the increase in the production of less costly appliances. The condition of the durable equipment in agriculture is analyzed by identifying their value and the degree of wear. Consequences of the increase in the quantity and quality of used machinery in agriculture are revealed. The requirements of agricultural enterprises for the quality of agricultural machinery are identified, and their classification by the requirements for quality, value and service is worked out. The quality requirements include technical and functional characteristics; value requirements consist of equipment prices, discounts, and value-added services. Service requirements comprise quality assurance of information, organizational and maintenance services. In accordance with the established requirements, technical, organizational, economic and social ways to meet these requirements were developed.

Agriculture is one of the high-risk sectors of the agro-industrial complex, which operates under the influence of internal and external risks. The results of the activities of agricultural producers are directly related not only to the amount and quality of labor, the level of technology and technology used, but also to the objective high risk conditions for agricultural production. Risk research remains one of the most important modern areas of economic research. Risk studies play an important role in predicting economic development and making optimal decisions. Achieving sustainable agricultural production requires research in industry risks. It is necessary to establish a system of organizational and economic measures to reduce the negative impact of risk factors on the production and financial results of agricultural enterprises


Population is growing and, at the same time, the need for food requires new methods of agriculture. Modern technologies help agrarian producers to improve yields in conditions where suitable fertile lands are decreasing every year and climatic conditions become unpredictable. In addition to global problems, agrarian producers face the competitiveness of large agrarian giants when business exists in tough market conditions. The use of the modern tools for improvement of productivity has influence on the big number of agricultural enterprises. The main obstacle to the widespread dissemination of these tools is the lack of experience in using modern means and technologies, including monitoring. The article discusses the most available method for entering to a new level of digitization, namely, monitoring with the help of satellites and drones. This method of increasing yields is widely used in the world, but is only beginning to gain popularity in Ukraine. The information which is provided in the article will help agricultural producers to assess the need of implementation of these tools for their own businesses and to understand the benefits of a particular method of monitoring. The article explains in an accessible way the advantages and disadvantages of modern methods of monitoring, mechanism of its action and implementation; provides a comparison of the quality of information of satellites and drones, and considers the problems and prospects of these methods of monitoring in the future.

The analysis of results of practical application of cast replaceable details of hinged tillage agricultural machinery at operation in a number of the agricultural enterprises of the Poltava region at processing of more than 60 thousand hectares within several years is presented. Comparative data of the resource of parts made of high-strength bainitic cast iron and steel serial analogues of domestic and foreign production are given. The advantages of the method of manufacturing by casting methods in comparison with the traditional method of manufacturing by stamping. This technology allows you to easily make adjustments to the design of the cultivator legs, thus providing a new quality of tillage and pruning of the root system of weeds, which eliminates the need for herbicides. The basis of this technology is the use of composite complex modifiers made by rolling powder mixtures of plastic and brittle components with the necessary observance of the proportions of their ratio. The use of powder rolled modifiers provides the necessary properties and structure of the cast metal required for further heat treatment. It is substantiated to obtain high wear resistance of cast products due to the appearance of TRIP-effect and constant updating of wear-resistant surface layer during operation.

In the article it is shown the results of summarizing of the features, methods, and tools of state support for business structures of the agricultural sector in Ukraine. It is established that the main form of state support is preferential tax treatment and implementation of state targeted programs, covering budget financing of programs and activities aimed at the development of certain industries, partial compensation of interest rates on commercial banks, partial compensation of purchased agricultural machinery. As a result of the analysis of public expenditures in support of the agricultural sector of Ukraine, it was found that the actual amount of funding does not meet the legal norm in the amount of 1 % of GDP. It should be noted a significant overall reduction in public spending to support the agricultural sector of Ukraine in 2020 year compared to the previous 2018–2019 years. At the same time, there is a reorientation of state support: expenditures on livestock and processing of this industry are significantly reduced, while expenditures on cheaper loans and partial compensation for the cost of purchased agricultural machinery are increasing. Given the problems of the agricultural sector, the main areas of the state support and stimulation of agricultural entrepreneurship should be: creating an effective mechanism for the financial support of agricultural enterprises in the context of budget grants and public investment; development of the programs to ensure the renewal of fixed assets and logistical re-equipment of agricultural enterprises through the introduction of innovations; protection of the domestic agricultural producers through a balanced export-import policy.

Palm kernel cake (PKC), a by-product of oil extracted from palm nuts through expeller press or solvent extraction procedures is one of the highest quantities of locally available and potentially inexpensive agricultural product. PKC provides approximately 14–18% of crude protein (CP), 12–20% crude fiber (CF), 3–9% ether extract (EE), and different amounts of various minerals that feasible to be used as a partial substitute of soybean meal (SBM) and corn in poultry nutrition. Poultry’s digestibility is reported to be compromised due to the indigestion of the high fiber content, making PKC potentially low for poultry feeding. Nevertheless, solid-state fermentation (SSF) can be applied to improve the nutritional quality of PKC by improving the CP and reducing CF content. PKC also contains β-mannan polysaccharide, which works as a prebiotic. However, there is a wide variation for the inclusion level of PKC in the broiler diet. These variations may be due to the quality of PKC, its sources, processing methods and value-added treatment. It has been documented that 10–15% of treated PKC could be included in the broiler’s diets. The inclusion levels will not contribute to a negative impact on the growth performances and carcass yield. Furthermore, it will not compromise intestinal microflora, morphology, nutrient digestibility, and immune system. PKC with a proper SSF process (FPKC) can be offered up to 10–15% in the diets without affecting broilers’ production performance.

The article analyzes the current state and main trends of socio-economic development of agriculture in 1990-2018. In particular, the analysis of gross agricultural output of Ukraine (at constant prices in 2010) in all categories of farms, including agricultural enterprises, the dynamics of gross crop and livestock production in agricultural enterprises and its structure are studied. The main trends of agricultural development are identified and analyzed in the context of the theory of multifunctionality in conditions of uncertainty. The reasons for the reduction of the livestock industry, which is one of the components of sustainable development and allows a comprehensive solution to a number of economic, environmental and social problems. A thorough analysis of crop production by its main types in all categories of farms, the structure of sown areas and the level of crop yields in agricultural enterprises, analyzed the performance of its operation. As a result of low profitability, high material consumption of growing and harvesting, companies lost interest in the production of sugar beets and gradually began to prefer the cultivation of crops that are in demand in the market and profitable. This applies to sunflower and cereals and legumes. The level of staffing of enterprises is investigated. In particular, the dynamics of the population in Ukraine in 1990-2019, the employed population and employees in agriculture, forestry and fisheries of Ukraine are analyzed. Among the main factors that provoke labor shortages in agriculture are: the elimination of the livestock industry, which reduces the level of seasonality; lack of motivation, which is manifested mainly in low wages; remoteness of agricultural enterprises from large cities; migration abroad and others. Based on the analysis, it is determined that the increase in agricultural production at enterprises should be due to: comprehensive intensification of the industry, introduction of modern innovative technologies, adherence to scientifically sound crop rotations, livestock development, wage growth, increasing the prestige of the profession. This will not only contribute to the socio-economic development of agriculture, but also allow agricultural producers to become competitive and take a worthy place in the world market.

Agriculture, for many reasons, can be considered one of the most important sectors of the economic complex of Ukraine. Its significance is determined, in our opinion, in particular by the dynamics of growth of agricultural production, which, in turn, depends on many, to some extent, important factors. In particular, how perfect is the state policy on the agro-industrial complex, especially in terms of regulating the pricing of basic agricultural products, to what extent the state policy on agricultural development takes into account the specifics of a region (area), including climatic conditions, the nature of historical production, the age structure of the population, its worldview, etc., that is, ultimately, to what extent the state policy to support agriculture meets the interests of the individual producer. All this is directly reflected in the growth (decrease?) rate of agricultural production, which determines the relevance of the study. The main, most important provisions of the article are: firstly, the statistical information provided in the proposed article on the specifics of agricultural production in Ukraine, its detail in terms of areas in a more generalized form can give a holistic, complete picture of its features in each of the regions of the country, which in some cases took place; secondly, in the direct context of the above, we consider it appropriate to highlight separately that despite all its ambiguity, the advantage of the above statistical material on the peculiarities of agricultural production in Ukraine in 2020 (2019) in absolute terms is that if needed it can significantly expand the range of necessary calculated information, on what, actually, the offered article was based also; thirdly, taking into account the above, however, different, one of the most important features of the proposed article is that the structure of agricultural production was analyzed in terms of production ratios of the main groups of producers of this type, which, as practice shows, were agricultural enterprises and farms of the population, and, emphasizing, in each of the regions of Ukraine; fourthly, perhaps not least, the significance of the analysis of the ratio of production volumes of the main groups of agricultural producers in Ukraine is enhanced by its detailing given their main subspecies, such as crop and livestock, which, in a sense, can be the basis for not only few more global and cognitive conclusions. Regarding the purely conclusions, one of the most important components of the article, we even consider it necessary to consider two of them separately: firstly, agriculture is an integral part of the national economic complex of Ukraine and the efficiency of its functioning can be one of the most important indicators of the level of economic development of the country as a whole; secondly, we believe that the efficiency of agricultural production both in Ukraine as a whole and, in particular, in its individual regions is determined not so much by optimizing the ratio of major groups of producers, which, as practice shows, were agricultural enterprises and households, how perfect the economic mechanism of functioning of each of them in particular.

Agriculture in Bali has historically been part of the traditional culture of rural communities. Utilization of information and communication technology (ICT) in the agricultural sector in Bali is still scarce. Therefore, research on the adoption of ICT in the agricultural sector is an urgent need at this time. This research contributes to understanding the adoption and use of ICT, identifying obstacles related to ICT use, and proposing recommendations with managerial implications for improving the current ICT system in Bali's agricultural sector. Research was carried out by distributing questionnaires about knowledge and ICTs for agriculture. The research findings show that there are 93,7% of the total respondents using at least one of the related equipment or ICT facilities for their agricultural businesses. As many as 74,1% of respondents who have adopted ICT have been able to overcome farming problems. Farmer respondents found ICT as an important factor in improving the quality of human resources and the quality of government services to them. The implications of ICT in agricultural development in Bali are considered very important, especially in extension activities. The availability of internet access and the ability and skills of the assisting officers are sufficient to help farmers, groups, or farmer groups to obtain information in the form of technological and institutional innovations.This information is needed in seeking the welfare of farmers. ICTs are a formal and informal source of practical information. Information can be accessed at any time every day. A number of agricultural websites provide weather forecasts, crop prices, financial and industrial services, and other general news. Internet connection provides a variety of functions and benefits to agricultural producers. Research shows that internet usage and the intended use may vary according to the type of operation.
