Economic efficiency of growing agrocenosis crops

Abstract

Purpose. To study the economic efficiency of growing crops by using different fertilizer systems.Methods. Field, calculation and comparison.Results. It is determined that under the traditional industrial system of soybean fertilizers it is possible to obtain a good level of profit with a profitability of 154 %. Similarly, for winter wheat cultivation, the use of a traditional industrial fertilizer system provides a relatively low level of profit (30,427 UAH), although the level of profitability was 157 %. But the average profitability is obtained by using an ecological fertilizer system, despite the low cost of the products and, accordingly, lower profits. In the cultivation of sugar beets, the use of industrial fertilizer system is the most expensive compared to others, but this system was the least profitable and had the lowest level of profitability – 63 %. It is also established that sugar beets are one of the most profitable crops of crop rotation in terms of profit. But for the cultivation of corn for grain and the use of industrial fertilizer system obtained a level of profitability – 133 % and a profit – 32673 UAH/ha.Conclusions. It is determined that the application of the biological system of soybean fertilizer yielded the best indicators of profit (32410 UAH/ha) and the level of profitability (183 %). Similarly, on this fertilizer system, winter wheat provided a profit of 31,185 UAH/ha and a profitability level of 180 %. Under the biological system of fertilizers in the cultivation of sugar beets, production costs were the lowest (28,250 UAH/ha), and the cost of cultivated products was minimal – UAH 410, which provided the highest profit – 36,516 UAH/ha and profitability – 129 %. Growing corn for grain under the biological fertilizer system contributed to the profit – 33863 UAH/ha and the level of profitability – 151 %.
