The results of the study of organization of forage resources for livestock and poultry with the use of forage sorghum are shown. The ways and directions for the increase of nutritive value and productive effect in the diets for animals and poultry are determined
The extensive path for development in the country in the
twentieth century caused low competitiveness of
Russian pig production. The productivity of domestic
pig production was significantly lower than in Europe,
US, Canada and China. Feed costs per 1 kg of gain were
2-3 times higher with a low yield of piglets from a sow
per year: 14-16 with an average European 25-27 heads.
The country did not have enough meat; as a result, a
significant amount of meat products was imported to
Russia. Restrictions on imports in connection to the
imposition of embargoes contributed to the increase in
demand for domestic products and opened new
opportunities for Russian producers. One way to
increase the production of pork is to use pigs with a high
genetic potential for productivity, imported for breeding
from Canada and Europe. Based on the conducted
studies, it has been established that pigs of foreign
breeding have high reproductive qualities, which proves
the expediency of their application in commercial pig
production to increase the efficiency of the industry
development and reduce the import of pedigree
youngsters from abroad. The implementation of two
breed gilts will help increase productivity in the
industrial pig production
This article shows the peculiarities of an apple-tree organogenesis in gardens of intensive type. There was collected the agronomic way directed to the optimization of the given process
In this article, agrochemical properties of the mining rocks at the industrial embankment of Kursk Magnetic Anomaly and pine indices of growth have been analyzed. A conсlusion has been made about the impossibility to grow long-term pine plantation without substrate fertility increase measures
In this article, we present the results of the experiments on
the potential of productivity and accumulation of the root
mass of the Alfalfa and Brome-grass, on the content of the
main nourishment elements and the consolidation of gross
energy in the roots and agroenergetical effect of the
collected gross energy in the conditions of permafrost turf
soil of the Middle Lena valley. The maximum productivity
potential of beans and cereals grass mixture was reached
on the basis of the organic mineral nourishment regime:
the collected exchange energy – 21,3 GJ, feed units – 1568
and collected raw proteins – 428 kg per ha. Thus, the
content of digestible protein in beans and cereals grass
mixture agrophytocenoenosis was increased from 118 to
124 g, that exceeded a zootechnic norm (105 g). In general
the nitrogen contained in the total root mass of beans and
cereals grass mixture agrophytocenoenosis was up to 26,6
centner per hectare and movable phosphorus- up to 33,6 kg
per hectare that can serve as the source of nourishment for
sown herbs. The maximal stock of gross energy in roots
was got in beans and cereals grass mixture
agrophytocenoenosis at organic-mineral degrees (humus of
40 centner per hectare once in 4 years + of N120PK60
annually) up to 157,1 GJ/ha, while the accumulation of the
root mass reached 140,3 centner per hectare at average
annual rates of accumulation of dry substance up to 24,5
centner per hectare. The processes of formation,
decomposition and death of roots in the beans and cereals
grass mixture agrophytocenosis take place almost in a
balance state. Wherein the biological factor, as the
inclusion of the Yakut yellow variety of the Alfalfa in the
grass stand, plays a positive role
The article is devoted to the estimation of the
dependence of perennial grass herbage’s productivity
on the dose and distribution of nitrogen fertilizers
during the vegetation, as well as from the dynamics of
the species composition by years of use. It was
revealed that for cocksfoot-timothy grass mixture an
increase in the rate of nitrogen fertilizer for every 10
kg of active ingredient leads to an increase of yield by
0.27 tons/ha. The selection of components of grass
mixtures and rational fertilizer doses forms the herbage
which provides a yield of about 7,0-12,0 tons/ha of dry
mass and 58,1-99,6 GJ of energy exchange. It is
established that competitive relations in grass mixtures
are exacerbated with increasing doses of fertilizers.
The timothy grass develops successfully in a mixture
with the cocksfoot with a low level of mineral nutrition
(N80). A high level of mineral nutrition speeds up the
formation of single-species herbage - the cocksfoot.
Meadow fescue grass provides sustainable yields on
medium and high backgrounds of mineral fertilizers in
combination with the cocksfoot. Recommendations for
a nitrogen dose of more than 200 kg per hectare for
fertilizing mixed grass crops with the cocksfoot and
about 100 kg per hectare for clover-cereals mixtures
without cocksfoot are suggested
The study was conducted in a stationary multivariate experiment at the experimental station of Kuban State Agrarian University during eighteen years. The technology of growing winter wheat was improved by the optimization of norms of fertilizers and plant protection systems for different levels of soil fertility. Totally there were 48 technologies for growing winter wheat after and grain: corn, sunflower, sugar beet, where studied in the experiment. The best combination of high yield (77.2 t / ha) with high quality grain (nature - 789 g / l, the total vitreousness - 60%, -14.2% protein content, gluten content - 29.0%) was found under intense technology. The grain quality meets the requirements for the 2nd class. Similar productivity (yield - 76.4 t / ha, the total vitreousness - 55% protein content - 13.4% gluten content - 27.2%) was obtained in and when grown for its resource-saving technology also. All kinds of technologies for growing winter wheat studied in the experiment were profitable, but resource-saving technology was the most efficient. Net income per hectare under this technology was 31,745 rubles, and a cost of 1 quintal of grain - 284 rubles
The article reviews the results of studying the influence
of mineral fertilizers on the qualitative indices of the
Merlot grape variety in the Anapo-Taman zone of the
Krasnodar region. The technology of cultivation of
grapes on the experimental plot was in accordance with
the accepted for the given zone and culture.
Agrobiological work was carried out at the optimal
time and had a high quality of execution. Grape bushes
are laid in a 3.0 x 2.0 m pattern. Formation - a twoshoulder
horizontal cordon. On the bushes we formed
the same load of shoots and bunches. Scheme of the
experiment: option 1 – no fertilizers (control); option
2-superphosphate with a mixture of potassium salt
(P90K90) from the autumn; option 3 –nitroammofoska
(N120P120K120) from autumn; option 4 – ammonium
nitrate (N60) in early spring. Analysis of the results of
studies on the study of biological features of growth,
fruiting, yield and quality of Merlot grape varieties on the background of the use of mineral fertilizers shows
their high efficiency in the conditions of the AnapoTamanskaya
zone of the Krasnodar region and can be
recommended for use in production conditions.

The article presents the materials of research on
studying of influence of various levels of crude fat in
the complete feed (CF) for the young geese of
Lindovskaya breed on chemical composition and
organoleptic quality of goose meat. In the
experimental groups we increased the concentration of
crude fat in the start and finish of the CF to 7.4 % and
6,85 %, respectively. As the lipid supplement, we used
sunflower oil. It is established that muscle tissue of
geese, consuming finishing CF with sunflower oil, has
a more pronounced taste, odour, tenderness and
juiciness. We may highlight the tendency to increase
the proportion of monounsaturated oleic acid, in the
background of the decrease of specific weight of
palmitic acid in the fat muscle 60 day goslings who
received the start and finish of CFs with the addition
of sunflower oil
In the article we have studied 55 aboriginal varieties,
collected in the North Caucasus. We have described
allelic diversity and identified four haplotypes. All the
populations were closely related while being examined
using a factor of Nei's genetic distance (Dn), with the
exception of indigenous varieties of Armenia.
Maximum differences have been found between the
Uzbek population and Astrakhan, Turkmenian,
Armenian populations. The most genetically rich were
the population of Don area and Krasnodar region
