The weather conditions of the agricultural years 2015-2016 and 2016-2017 according to the rainwater regime were characterized as wet and very humid years. The administration of mineral fertilizers on the calcareous (carbonatic) chernozem showed the dependence of the dry substance accumulation on the winter wheat ontogenesis with the weather conditions. In the beginning of the straw stretch development phase of the winter wheat the most intense process of dry matter accumulation was determined. The dry matter accumulation was 3-4 times higher than in other plant development phases or 65% on average. The development phase of winter wheat with maximum organic mass accumulation was flowering, both for the control and fertilized variants. In the years with insufficient precipitation on the variant with dose rate N60-120P3.5K60 were occurred the delay of the maximum phase of organic substance synthesis until the milk-wax phase of wheat plants. The experimental data showed that the optimal variant with dry accumulation matter in the wheat plants was the dose N60P3.5K60. In the control variant, the dry matter content of the plant in the twinning phase consisted of 6.5 g on the 100 plants and increased by 73 times in the flowering phase with maximum nutrient consumption.

One of the institutional uniqueness in Bali is the existence of custom villages. The Provincial Government of Bali has not been able to take operational funding policies to the level of traditional villages, so there are still many village potentials that still need to be explored and developed for the welfare of the community. To realize this, the Bali Provincial Government triggered the establishment of a Village Credit Institution (LPD) in all traditional villages in Bali. LPD is part of village assets that have the potential to improve the people's economy. This research was conducted to analyze: (1) the effect of social capital on competitive advantage and business performance of LPD; (2) the effect of competitive advantage on business performance of LPD; and (3) the role of competitive advantage as mediator between social capital and business performance of LPD in Gianyar Regency. The population in this study were all LPDs in Gianyar Regency, with a sample of 73 LPD managers, of which respondents were determined by proportional stratified random sampling technique. The data collection technique was done by questionnaire instrument, and continued with SEM-PLS analysis. The results show that social capital has a positive and significant effect on competitive advantage and also on LPD’s business performance. Competitive advantage also has a positive and significant effect on LPD’s business performance. On the other side, competitive advantage also as significant mediator between social capital and LPD’s business performance in Gianyar Regency.

One has determined the essence, structural features, functional significance and the role of protected areas. One has revealed the concept of “land and resource potential of protected areas”. One has kept under review features of the use of the land and resource potential of protected areas considering the strategic concept of sustainable development. One has determined the indicators of the quantity, the structure, the dynamics, and the distribution of object areas by categories, as well as characterized indicators of the reservation of the territory of the country. One has proved that there are positive tendencies in increasing areas of protected areas. One has indicated the necessity of capacity building by increasing the area of protected areas, which is expedient to carry out due to the transformation of disturbed, degraded and low-yield lands on the basis of re-cultivation, conservation (grassland renovation, forestation) and their transfer to separate objects of protected areas.

Field experiments were conducted in 2017 and 2018 second planting seasons, at the Research and Teaching Farm of the Faculty of Agriculture, Abia State University,Uturu Umuahia Campus to investigate the effect of weeding on the population of Spodoptera frugiperda and yield of maize. Two Maize varieties, OBA SUPER 2 (yellow seeded) and OBA SUPER 98 (white seeded) were planted as the main plot treatment while four weeding schedules (no weeding, 1, 2, or 3 weedings) were included as the sub-plot treatments. Seeds were sown on ridges 1.0 m apart and 50.0 cm between stands in 5.0 m2 plots on 5th day of August each year. Data were collected on the number of larvae of fall Armyworm S. frugiperda larvae, damaged plants and grain yield of maize. All data were subjected to analysis of variance (ANOVA) and separation of means done using Least Significant Difference (LSD). During both years, it was found that the weeded plots had significantly (P<0.05) lower S. frugiperda population than the non-weeded plots. S.frugiperda population decreased significantly with increase in the number of times sub-plots were weeded. Thus, S.frugiperda population of 7.6 were recorded in the plots weeded thrice in 2017 and 8.3 in the year 2018; with twice weeding it was 10.3 and 10.5 in 2017 and 2018; and for once weeding it was 12.5 and 13.3 in the two years respectively. The non-weeded plot had 13.0 and 16.5 S. frugiperda in the two years respectively. The frequency of weeding was inversely correlated with S. frugiperda population. Grain yields were significantly higher when weeding was done three times compared with weeding twice, once and no weeding respectively. In the two years, the percentage leaf damaged were decreased as the number of weeding increased. There was no significant correlation between S. frugiperda and the grain yields in the two years suggesting that any of the weeding regimes, especially 2-weeding and 3-weeding can be adopted to reduce S.frugiperda infestation in maize with no significant effect on grain yield. In addition , any of the two varieties can be cultivated in the area to achieve good grain yield.

One has determined the problem of the effective use of land resources in Ukraine, which requires the application and elaboration of the provisions of methodological approaches and advanced achievements of European practice. The foreign experience of mechanisms application of land resources effective use is considered and the methods of their implementation in Ukraine are offered. One has determined that the productive production of agrarian products, taking into account the specialization of cultivating crops is the strategic vector for land management as based on the European experience. We observe that the price of grain crops compared to the EU countries is the lowest at low yield capacity, reflecting the negative state of the agrarian economy in Ukraine. One has researched the reverse dependence between the sale price and the yield of grain crops in the EU countries in 2018. One has presented a regression model that reflects the dependence between gross production and grain crops yield capacity in the EU countries for the year of 2018. It shows the close connection between them. The obtained results of grain crops analysis are recommended for predicting and planning of agricultural production, economic activity estimation, calculation of planned yield capacity, sales revenue and expenses for its cultivation on diverse lands in Ukraine and the EU countries. One has generalized the conditions for stable economic development, financial support, and coordination of actions aimed at increasing productivity of land resources due to a common agrarian policy between the EU countries and Ukraine.
