Milk productivity of first-calf cows depending on the intensity of their breeding

The paper presents the results of studies of milk productivity of black-and-white cows depending on the age of the first insemination and live weight at the first calving in the conditions of the Irkutsk region. The dynamics of heifer rearing by year, milk productivity of cows in the 1st and 3rd lactations depending on the intensity of their development has been studied. The experiment was conducted on farm materials from the Irkutsk Region using generally accepted zootechnical, analytical, variation and statistical research methods from 2016 to 2020. Live weight of heifers at all ages met the requirements of the elite and elite-record classes. Analysis of the data showed that the growth rate of the animals increased during 5 years (6.0%, 6.8, 2.3 and 4.8% respectively with a significant difference p ≥ 0.90). With the increased intensity of heifer rearing, an increase in milk yield over 305 days of the first lactation was observed. The highest milk production was noted in the 1st (5309-5476 kg) and 3rd (5418-5817 kg) lactations in cows with the first fruitful insemination at 13-14 months. The lowest 1st and 3rd lactation yields are obtained from cows inseminated at 20 months of age or older. Higher milk production in the first and third lactations was obtained from cows with a live weight at first calving of 541-550 kg, 551 kg and higher (5197-5164, 5436-5545 kg respectively). Less milk production was obtained from cows with a live weight at first calving of up to 500 kg (4567-5122, 4943-5009 kg). The results obtained make it possible to reveal the influence of the intensity of rearing heifers on the productive qualities of cows.

Acanthodiaptomus tibetanus (Daday, 1908) (Calanoida, Diaptomidae) – a biogeographic relict in the water bodies of Baikal Rift Zone

A detailed morphological description of the copepod Acanthodiaptomus tibetanus and its geographic distribution on the territory of Irkutsk Region, Buryat Republic, Zabaikalsky Region and Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) within the limits of Baikal Rift Zone is presented for the first time. The authors provided information on the paleogeographic conditions of the territory these crustaceans inhabited and characterized their habitats in brief. An overview of the personal data and available literature on the geographic distribution of A. tibetanus is given. One of the major results obtained under this study was elucidation of the distribution patterns of A. tibetanus. In order to understand current distribution patterns of organisms, A. tibetanus in particular, in different basins, we carried out a historical analysis of the relief formation taking into account climatic aspects involved in these transformations.

Harnessing the Irkutsk Oblast Recreational Potential for the Innovation-Driven Growth the Region

Innovative development of the region implies creation and commercialization of innovations in the most favorable for the region business sectors. The priorities of the Irkutsk region development are to increase the innovation component, to develop high technology and to use the recreational resources of the region for the innovation development. Objective of the study: to determine the ways of using the recreational potential of Irkutsk Oblast for innovation development. The research methodology is based on a theoretical analysis of the main aspects of innovative regional development, innovation in the regional tourism and recreation industry. The information and empirical research base of the study was statistical data on the development of tourism in Irkutsk Oblast. The novelty of the research is in the formation of a conceptual approach to the use of recreational resources of Irkutsk Oblast for innovative development of the region through the creation and development in the region of world-class scientific centres in the priority sectors for the development of the region; the establishment in the Cisbaikalia of a geopark and biomedical cluster; development of congress and business tourism, both interregional and international, including transit tourism; engagement of areas not adjacent to Lake Baikal in the tourism industry. The author proposes to consider tourism as a form of export of high-tech eco-oriented living environment. The article provides an analysis of the national projects, programmes and strategies related to the development of innovations in tourism activities in Irkutsk Oblast.

Problems of Detection and Investigation of Tax Crimes in the Timber Industry of the Irkutsk Region

The article considers the activity of the enterprises of the timber industry of the region. The volume of timber exports, tax burden, tax revenues to the budget of the Irkutsk region and to the consolidated budget of the Russian Federation, registered tax crimes, amounts of material damage caused are analyzed. The applicable tax avoidance schemes are presented, as well as schemes aimed at illegal reimbursement of value added tax from the budget. Problematic issues are highlighted in terms of information interaction between law enforcement and tax authorities in order to identify tax crimes, as well as in conducting joint control and verification activities, and ways are proposed to solve these problems. The peculiarities of conducting the main investigative actions necessary for successful solving of tax crimes in the timber industry are considered. The issue of factors affecting the time period from the identification of a tax crime to the conviction is raised, as well as the disproportions of the penalties applied to the committed acts. Emphasis is placed on the need for legal and regulatory improvements, as well as the use of proposed measures in modern investigative practice.

Exogenous and endogenous mortality parameters as indicators of the sanitary and epidemiological status of the population of the region

Introduction. The concepts of the epidemiological transition and types of population health are applied to analyzing and evaluating the sanitary and epidemiological status of the population. Materials and methods. For many years of mortality, the dynamics of the male population of the Irkutsk region standardized indicators were used (European age standard). For identifying trends of changing mortality rates, an analytical alignment of the time series was used. It was a linear model by EXCEL’s standard tools (Microsoft Office 2007). The significance of the trend equation was calculated using F-test in IBM SPSS Statistics 23 (p < 0,05). Results. It has been established that the formation of various types of pathology and caused by this pathology mortality occurred under the influence of factors of different nature in the process of changes in social, environmental, epidemiological situations in the region. In the 1990 th and the first half of the 2000 th, high mortality rates in the class of diseases of the circulatory system and the class of external causes of morbidity and mortality were determined mainly by psychosocial disadvantage factors. By the class of Diseases of the respiratory system, there was noted a steady decrease in mortality rate from chronic diseases of the lower respiratory tract and pneumonia. It was probably due to an increase in the level and quality of medical care. A steady tendency to increase intensive and extensive mortality rates by class of Certain infectious and parasitic diseases was seen. That was caused by negative changes in infectious and epidemic processes under the influence of man-made pollution was noted. During 2005 - 2015 the digestive system’s share of the class of Diseases in the mortality structure increased. That is due to the prevalence of alcoholic liver disease, chronic alcoholic pancreatitis, complications of the ulcer of the stomach and duodenum. Conclusion. The combination of the identified patterns of the formation of intensive and extensive mortality rates determined by exogenous and endogenous factors made it possible to characterize the situation in the Irkutsk region as a relative sanitary and epidemiological disadvantage of the population.
