Issue №: 1 (40)
This issue of the journal is devoted to current issues related to the optimization of technological elements in the cultivation of agricultural crops. Considerable attention is paid to the specific features of growing vegetable and cereal crops, which play an important role in ensuring the state’s food security. The scientific publications present research results on the role of leguminous crops in improving soil fertility, the development of domestic and international adaptive breeding, as well as the application of mineral and foliar fertilization to increase the productivity of agroecosystems. Separate studies are devoted to improving the efficiency of forest management and to issues related to landscape greening.

Oleksandr Shevchuk, post graduate student of the department of plant growing and horticulture of Vinnytsia National Agrarian University (21008, Vinnytsia, Soniachna Str. 3, ORCID: https://orcid.org/0009-0003-8950-1513).
The article presents the results of field studies that shows the impact of combined seed treatment with organo-mineral fertilizer Helprost seeds, a preparation based on mycorrhiza Melanoriz and inoculant Anderiz against the background of different options for mineral fertilizer, namely control without fertilizer, P60K60, N30P60K60, N30P60K60+N15 (foliar top dressing), N45P60K60+N15 (foliar top dressing) on the features of the formation of key structural elements of the crop, namely the number of beans per plant, the number of grains per plant, the mass of grains per plant, and also the mass of a thousand grains. The object of the study in this case was the plants of the early-ripening soybean variety Diadema Podillya, the originator of which is the Institute of Feed and Agriculture of the Podillya NAAS. The research work was carried out during 2021-2025 on the experimental field of the Scientific Research Group Agronomichne of Vinnytsia National Agrarian University, the soil cover of which is represented by gray forest soils. Research methods: system analysis, trial sheaf method, mathematical and statistical method. According to the results of experimental data obtained over a five-year period of field experiments, it was found that the most optimal conditions for the growth and development of soybean plants, and as a consequence the formation of high ‘productivity indicators of structural elements in the conditions of the Right-Bank Forest-Steppe, are achieved by observing a number of agrotechnical measures. In particular, this is the optimal level of mineral fertilizer N30P60K60 in the main and N15 in the top dressing, as well as combinatorial pre-sowing treatment of seeds with the preparations Anderiz (3.0 l/t), Helprost seeds (1.5 l/t) and Melanoriz (2.0 l/t). With this model of technology, the maximum productivity indicators were achieved in the experiment, in particular: the number of beans on one plant was within 26.0 pcs. (15.1 pcs. on the control), the number of grains on the plant was 52.6 pcs. (24.4 pcs. on the control), the weight of grains from the plant was 8.04 g (3.35 g on the control), and the weight of 1000 grains was 152.2 g (136.4 g on the control).
