A special role is played by the influence of legumes on improving soil fertility, adaptive selection, and peculiarities of vegetable growing, ecology and environmental protection, methods of pest control, introduction of ornamental plants.
SPECIFIC FEATURES OF FORMATION OF VINNYTSIA FOREST PARK PLANTATIONS RESISTANT TO RECREATIONAL LOADS
Matusiak Mikhailo – PhD of Agricultural Sciences, Associate Professor, Senior lecturer of the Department of Forestry, Landscape Gardening, Horticulture and Viticulture of Vinnytsia National Agrarian University (21008, Vinnytsya, Sonyachna st. 3, e-mail: mikhailo1988@gmail.com).
The research conducted was to assess the characteristics of intraspecific and interspecific interaction of the dominant tree species in the forest-park plantations of Vinnytsia green zone, as well as to determine the priority taxation indicators of formation of forest stands with high competitive ability.As a result of the research it was found that the main indicators that directly affect the competitive properties of forest elements are the sanitary condition of forest plantations; the composition of the stand and its storey structure; the undergrowth and underwood availability; biological and ecological features of individual tree species; stand completeness; age of planting; type of forest vegetation conditions; specific features of microclimate and microrelief. The analysis of the sanitary condition of the trial areas shows that the degree of competitive ability of forest plantations with a high number of dead or damaged trees is much lower than that in plantations with better sanitary conditions. The dependence of the competitive ability and the stand growth intensity on its completeness and the type of forest-park landscape was also studied. Thus, closed types of stands are characterized by a high degree of competitiveness. In semi-open types of forest-park landscapes the rate of growth intensity is the highest. The competitive ability of trees in this type of landscape is quite low. After analyzing the temperature regime of different forest parks, it was found that in hot weather the ambient temperature in the forest park is much lower than the air temperature in the open area. Thus, in hot uncomfortable weather, the optimal type of forest for recreation is a closed type of landscape of vertical closure. The air temperature here can be significantly lower (up to 15˚C) compared to the open space, what creates suitable conditions for a comfortable rest. Analysis of the humidity of forest parks showed that under the cover of forest stands humidity is higher than in the open area, thus recommendations for choosing the type of forest landscape for recreation purposes depend on the initial humidity.

About the journal
Cluster Agricultural and veterinary sciences (H1 Agronomy, H4 Forestry)
Name of the publication «AGRICULTURE AND FORESTRY»
The aim of the journal "Agriculture and Forestry" is to highlight the results of fundamental and applied research in the fields of agriculture and forestry, aimed at improving the efficiency of agricultural production and introducing modern technologies into farming practice.
This goal defines the main objectives:
– to ensure the creation of open information access regarding the dissemination of relevant scientific research results to: lecturers of agricultural higher education institutions, postgraduate students, doctoral candidates, research staff, and agricultural production specialists;
– to promote the development of young scientists in agricultural sciences;
– to enhance communication between experienced researchers and young scientists in agronomy and forestry;
– to facilitate the expansion of ties between Vinnytsia National Agrarian University and domestic and foreign educational institutions, scientific establishments, and their academic communities.
The scientific, production, and educational journal "Agriculture and Forestry" is a peer-reviewed open-access publication that publishes original experimental research, theoretical and practice-oriented articles within the cluster of "Agricultural and Veterinary Sciences".
The journal's subject matter covers such areas as agronomy and forestry. Publications of scientific and practical significance address the experimental foundations of agricultural and forestry sector development, innovative production technologies, and the results of fundamental and applied research aimed at increasing productivity, product quality, and the sustainable development of natural and production systems.
