The present paper aims to analyze the concept of “food integrity” from the perspective of wheat processing, in order to obtain flour. The analysis approaches concepts such as: safety, quality, authenticity and nutritional value of the products obtained to the main technological stages of the grinding process, food fraud concerning grinding products and minimization of the milling industry impact on global warming. Our data showed that mycotoxin contamination (DON and Ochratoxin A) was the cause of most alerts recorded in Europe. In United States, the main products withdrawals were caused by microbiological contamination (E. coli and Salmonella). In the area of food fraud, the main observed practice was that of over- or under-evaluation of the flour mineral content. Our conclusion is that although preventive programs, designed to minimize the risks of wheat milling products to consumers, are well described and implemented, there is room for improvement, especially as regards the selection and evaluation of suppliers and the control of certain microbiological risks in mills.Most of the problemsare the causeof an inadequate description of the flow diagrams in the specific documentation of food management systems and of the underestimation of certain activities (e.g.rework), that are not treated as an integral part of the technological processes in mills.Most concerns to reduce the impact of wheat processing on global warming are compromised by a number of issues, such as large investments, in obtaining convenient and safer products (that require energy-intensive technologies and equipment), which are in contradiction with consumers' interest.

It is proved that for the full functioning of certification institutions at the national level, it is necessary to legally fix a mixed (public-private) system for organizing certification of organic production. This, on the one hand, requires strict control over the activities of private certification bodies, but on the other, it will allow to avoid state monopolism and bureaucracy. A structural-functional organic certification scheme in Ukraine has been proposed, which includes three main levels: global, state, and enterprise level, and is also based on a combined certification system, in which state and private certification bodies operate under equal conditions with the involvement of control from the state accreditation body. The proposed scheme, first of all, is intended to make certification of organic enterprises more accessible (cheaper compared to foreign), which in turn will help stimulate the development of organic agriculture in Ukraine. The development of national accreditation and labeling systems and their registration at the international level will allow organic products to be positioned as a high-quality organic goods, create demand for such products by organizing educational activities and conducting a large-scale information campaign (for example, social advertising). In addition, this system will contribute to the promotion of an international partnership in the field of environmental certification and labeling, which will provide an opportunity to increase the export potential of organic products.

The goal of the article is to analyze development of the state support for farming enterprises in Ukraine. Scientific solution of the set tasks required use of the following methods, particularly the method of comparative analysis was used to estimate expenditures of the state budget and programs of support for farming enterprises; abstract-logical method – to define the main problems of the state support for farmers in Ukraine; statistical-economic method – to evaluate current conditions and tendencies of development of the system of the state support for farmers. The work analyzes principal directions and problems of the state support for farming enterprises in Ukraine. It is confirmed that the State support for a farmer should be focused not only on support of the volume of production and producers’ prices, but on implementation of innovative projects by farmers concerning sustainable land management.

The qualitative composition of combined fodder for rabbits plays a key role in achieving success in raising these animals, because 60-80% of the prime cost production constitutes the part of the feed. The purpose of the work was to appreciate the influence of biomass of Streptomyces levoris CNMN-Ac-01 and of some external factors on the microbiological and biochemical quality of the friable and granular combined fodder for rabbits. As a result of study of the microbiological composition of friable and granular combined fodder, it was found that the addition of Streptomyces levoris CNMN-Ac-01 biomass, the temperature and the pressure during the compaction of the combined fodder, improve the sanitary condition of the granulated fodder by reducing the amount of E. coli and Enterococcus spp. and the destruction of Aspergillum niger. The results of the biochemical analyzes of the studied fodder indicate that the elaborated fodder recipe can provide rabbits with the necessary in metabolic energy, crude protein, cellulose, carotene, calcium and phosphorus for their vital activity, and extrinsic factors (Streptomyces levoris biomass of CNMN-Ac -01, temperature and high pressure) do not significantly affect their chemical composition.

Developing an effective staff assessment system is crucial for businesses. Labor effectiveness influences on the results of enterprise activity. It is possible to improve labor effectiveness by introducing system of assessment and motivation of employees. Modern practices in assessing and motivating the staff of agricultural enterprises that are used in the world are rapidly developing. However, the peculiarities of functioning of developing enterprises and general economic processes do not allow to use existing best practices for agricultural enterprises. Possibilities of introducing innovative methods for personnel assessment that are adapted for modern agricultural enterprises are still not fully researched. On the basis of comparison of personnel management systems according to American, European and Japanese approaches, the peculiarities of the management system are determined by the Ukrainian approach. The complex system of personnel assessment for agricultural enterprises is substantiated in the form of a matrix. This system takes into account two descriptive criteria: periodicity (systematic and final assessment) and on object of assessment (current activity and trends of employee development). The proposed system of personnel assessment based on the KPI method has been shown in details, as well as the criteria of evaluation and indicators by the KPI method have been substantiated. The developed system for the personnel assessing of agricultural enterprises is relevant for the specifics of the activity of farms, and allows assessing the current activity and trends of employees' development in the context of systematic and final evaluations.

The market economy of management introduces significant changes in the understanding of the role and responsibility of state institutions and economic entities in the development of socio-economic processes and their effectiveness. Despite the huge role of state institutions, the real sector of the economy is the main contributor to state budget revenues. Its quality depends on the financial condition of economic entities, which, in turn, depends on the quality of financial management, the improvement of which in the conditions of external uncertainty is extremely important.

In the present paper there are highlighted several aspects referring to the activity of producing and marketing of pears in Romania during the period 2012-2017. In order to carry out a study that reflects the finalization of pears at national level, various specific indicators were analysed, such as: the total number of bearing pear trees in Romania; total pear production obtained internally; average pears production per tree at national level; the average price for table pears on the domestic market; imports and exports of pears both in terms of quantity and value. In Romania, nowadays, table pears are among the fruits appreciated by consumers, with an average annual consumption per capita of over 4.5 kg. In order to insure the amount of pears needed for domestic consumption, Romania imports significant annual quantities of pears. In this context, farmers in Romania can also focus on setting up pear plantations because they are less vulnerable to disease and are cost-effective even on less extensive surfaces. The National Institute of Statistics and specialized international sites were the main providers of statistical data that led to the realization of this study.

One should determine that the necessary prerequisite for the balanced land use in the agricultural sector is the application of instruments for the organization and protection of agricultural lands, which include a list of land management documentation and land protection measures. The methodological foundations of the combination of land management and lands protection measures into a single system of instruments, which will be aimed at ensuring the balanced nature use, are justified. The state of the development of land management projects and the financing of works on the protection and rational use of land is analyzed. The system of application of instruments for the organization and protection of lands is revealed. The essence of the system of the application of instruments is a comprehensive approach to the organization and protection of the territory that will ensure a balanced use of both land and natural resources.

The methodological approach to the comprehensive assessment of the recreational territories resource potential which implies an integral index use that takes into account the system of indicators according to the following components: nature and resource, historical and cultural, social and economic and ecological ones, has been made on the basis of the analytical generalizations and identified problems in the recreational resources study. Applying the proposed methodological approach according to type and component principle will enable to identify regions with similar natural properties, social and economic state, infrastructure support with the purpose of effective spatial planning of the recreational sphere development, as well as to determine the strategic directions of the recreational territories resource potential implementation. On the basis of the developed methodical approach, an assessment of the level of the recreational territories resource potential in Ukraine has been done. According to the calculations of the integral index, conducted in the regions of Ukraine, they have been grouped as to the following levels of the recreational territories resource potential: high, medium, low and very low. It is established that the Autonomous Republic of Crimea (final assessment 0.78) has the optimal conditions for the implementation of resource potential and the development of recreational territories among the regions of Ukraine. The potential is lower in Lviv (index – 0.61), Odesa (0.54) and Transcarpathian (0.51) regions. At the same time, most regions of Ukraine have a low level of the recreational territories resource potential compared to the best analogs in the country.
