Organizational and economic approaches to technological updating of agricultural enterprises

Abstract

Purpose. The aim of the article is the development of theoretical approaches and practical recommendations for substantiation of instruments for improving the reproductive processes of land by agricultural enterprises. Methodology of research. Abstract and logical, computational, constructive and optimization methods are used to solve these problems, in particular in substantiation of directions of improvement of reproductive processes of agricultural lands and formation of rational organizational and economic conditions for reproduction of elements of MTB of agricultural enterprises. Findings. It has been proved that the No-Till farming system is effective in reproducing the fertility of land resources, which is not plowed, and the surface of the earth is covered with a layer of specially crushed plant residues - mulch residues (mulch). The main advantages of using zero tillage include: saving resources - fuel, labour, time, reducing depreciation costs; reducing the complexity of the technological process; restoration and preservation of the fertile soil layer - reduction or complete prevention of soil erosion; moisture accumulation in the soil, which is especially important in the conditions of the Steppe zone, and, accordingly, a noticeable decrease in the dependence of the crop on weather conditions; increasing crop yields due to the above factors. Originality. The scientific approach to the reproduction of land resources in agricultural enterprises is proposed, which is based on a set of organizational and economic instruments of socially responsible conduct of activity, in particular: the motivation of agricultural producers to introduce organic fertilizers, the introduction of the No-till system, the development of organic production, which will enhance the agricultural production. Practical value. The necessity of improvement of the program of state support of organic producers is proved on the basis of forecasting: compensation of costs for development of systems of management of organic production of agricultural production, costs in the transition period to organic production, partial compensation of costs for the use of organic fertilizers, costs for the use of plant protection products, costs for expertise organic products. It is now important to ensure that agro-technical measures are taken to restore the fertility of land resources through co-financing by agricultural enterprises, united territorial communities and the state. An effective factor, although indirectly influencing the increase in fertility of agricultural land, is the dissemination of knowledge about modern resource-saving technologies that can be provided through advisory services.
