It is noted that leasing is a special form of reproduction of fixed assets, which is a kind of entrepreneurial activity. This is one of the most attractive and promising forms of investment that can significantly revive the process of updating the material and technical base of agricultural producers and the entry of the Ukrainian economy into the structure of the world market. The basis of the lease is long-term lease of the property, namely its transfer for temporary use on terms of payment, urgency or redemption. It is proved that in recent years, there has been an increase in the financial leasing market in Ukraine. The decisive contribution to the positive trend is made by companies, members of the professional association of lessors, because today they show the highest dynamics of development. It is proved that leasing is characterized by certain advantages over bank lending, namely: the possibility of quick acquisition of the property and the beginning of its operation without significant one-time investments; release of considerable funds for the solution of priority tasks; after the expiration of the contract there is an opportunity to purchase the property for the residual book value or contract price or to continue leasing for a new term. In our article it is substantiated that the number of leasing operations in Ukraine remains several times lower than the similar indicators of the western countries. For more active development of the leasing services market and, as a result, successful leasing development in Ukraine, it is advisable to carry out a set of measures proposed in the presented study, the main of which, in our opinion, is the support of agricultural producers by the state, which should be based on the development of a better budgetary allocation mechanism. subject to the adoption by the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine of bills initiated by the Association of Lessors of Ukraine, which will help to increase the demand of agricultural commodities Aviation producers to leasing companies, filling the market of agro-leasing services with private capital, and thus improving the investment environment in the agricultural sector.

In recent years, organic production has been one of the sectors that has grown in terms of areas, animals and number of people involved in a control system, successfully applied in Bulgaria, even in times of crisis. The reasons why organic production develops favourably are diverse and are related to the recognized benefit for the development of rural regions and the environment, as well as to the need and preferences of consumers for healthy and quality foods and also to the excellent prerequisites for the development of organic production in Bulgaria and the support of organic producers under the Rural Development Programme. The aim of this article is to analyze the status and development of organic beekeeping in Bulgaria, as well as to highlight some issues faced by organic livestock sector, and thus to stimulate and encourage the development of the potential Bulgarian organic beekeeping. The research is based on official statistical data of Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Forestry. Bulgaria is a traditional producer of different types of organically certified honey with excellent quality indicators and a large part of the production is exported to the world market. There is a need for research, analysis and evaluation of the status of ecological beekeeping in Bulgaria.

The relevance of the work is stipulated by the need to study alternative financing instruments for the Russian agroindustrial complex whose products ensure the satisfaction of primary needs and national food security. The research aimed to study the potential of agricultural credit consumer cooperatives in the Russian economy as an institution of alternative financing and the sustainability of small business in agriculture. The authors of this article relied on a system-integrated approach, including statistical and comparative analysis, as well as case method and analogy method for identifying the determinants of the development of agricultural credit cooperation. The authors have revealed that the deterrent nature of the development of agricultural credit consumer cooperatives is determined by two groups of factors: exogenous (macroeconomic financial instability, lack of necessary institutional conditions, excessive requirements from the Bank of Russia) and endogenous (level of confidence of agricultural producers, lack of financial and digital literacy in rural areas). Agricultural credit cooperation can have real potential as an alternative source of financing in the field of small and medium-sized businesses in the agro-industrial complex with the support of this institution from the state and a high level of trust at the microlevel of rural territories.

Research on the diversity and abundance of entomopathogenic fungi and their hosts in rice plantations in Bolaang Mongondow Regency was an attempt to find potential local biological control agents. Integrated pest management as often employed in agricultural pest control, may be a way to address these issues. The purpose of this study was to determine the diversity and abundance of entomopathogenic fungi and their hosts, to find pest insect species that attack rice plants, and to look for potential host species and entomopathogenic fungi in Bolaang Mongondow. The results showed that entomopathogenic fungi that have been identified through the research are Beauveria bassiana, Hirsutela sp., and Metarhizium anisopliae. Hosts that have been found due to fungal entomopathogenic infections are Nilaparvata lugens, Scotinophara coarctata, Leptocorisa oratorius, and Paraeucosmetus pallicornis. The highest diversity index in Bolaang Mongondow was found in Nilaparvata lugens (1.07) and for entomopathogenic fungi was found in Beauveria bassiana (1.34). The highest abundance index levels in Bolaang Mongondow were found in the same host and fungi.

One has proposed to determine the ecological and economic efficiency of the process of land resources reproduction, depending on the yielding capacity of cereals and legumes on the humus stock in soils and the cost of their cultivation due to the use of index method and rating. One has calculated the project indicators of yielding capacity, production costs and minimum profit at 25 % for growing cereals and legumes for the administrative districts of Lviv region based on the range of changes in actual fertility due to humus stock, taking into account the qualitative characteristics. Considering the calculations, we have established that the highest yielding capacity of cereals and legumes at the level of 1.205 will be concentrated in Sokal district of Lviv region, which depends on humus content in soil at the level of 1.159 and the level of socially necessary costs of 1.038. The corresponding project values of the gross production of grain and leguminous crops growing for the researched administrative area are 408.71 million UAH concerning production costs of 286.73 million UAH, which provides a profit of 122 million UAH at 42.5 % of profitability, taking into account the predicted yielding capacity at the level of 45.3 c/ha.

The study proposes an approach to environmental and economic assessment of land use efficiency in the context of environmental safety. The authors believe that the sites with high environmental risk have a direct impact on the development of rural areas, the economy of natural, including land resources and the environment. The significance of the study is that it shows that ensuring the ecological balance of life in the process of organizing land use directly depends on taking into account and preventing dangerous situations from objects with high, medium and low levels of threats (level of increasing the maximum allowable concentration of air emissions, water pollution facilities with agricultural nitrates, industry, defense facilities, etc.). The analysis shows that the ecological balance depends on the structure of land use and the functional use of land. In particular, the authors noted that the greater the share of subtypes of urban land use that has a negative impact on the environment, the higher the degree of danger to human life. Therefore, threats to the ecological instability of land use and, consequently, to the environmental safety of the population within rural areas, where land plots with dangerous objects are located, has to be considered and assessed.

The paper substantiates that because the soils ploughing level in Ukraine has not changed for a long time, soil depletion is growing every year. As a result of the formed culture tendencies which grow on such lands, every year will lose productivity, and consequently, the efficiency of managing the agricultural enterprises systematically decreases. Cartogram of Ukrainian regions grouping by the average annual rent for the agricultural land use is given. It was found that that in the current business environment in Ukraine, the amount of rent does not depend on the soil fertility level, because in most western, southern and south–eastern regions of Ukraine, where the most fertile soils are concentrated, the level of rent is relatively low. In addition, it should be noted that the agricultural land of public and private ownership renting cost differs significantly from each other, which we found by comparing the data of the relevant cartograms of Ukraine. We systematized the results of the impact factors assessing on the sale of gross output of agricultural enterprises of Ukraine in 2014 – 2018 by analysing the dynamics of the return rate on their fixed assets and the factors that influenced its formation. The results of the factor analysis will make it possible to identify the quantitative impact of factors on the efficiency of non-current assets of agricultural producers, the significant share of which is directly occupied by land resources. The work is systematized the results of assessing the impact of factors on the return on assets of agricultural producers of Ukraine for 2014 - 2018 by identifying the factors that influenced its formation by determining their quantitative impact through factor analysis methods, including the method of elimination. It is substantiated that having significant and quite high–quality reserves of fertile lands, Ukraine is 2–3 times less productive than developed countries, which is evidence of inefficient use of agricultural land by agricultural enterprises of Ukraine. In our opinion, the main task of the state to rationalize and establish the efficient use of land resources in the agricultural sector is to introduce a number of measures to ensure efficient land use.

The content of rural territories development as a socio-economic-ecological system has been determined. It has been also proved that the study of rural development is of crucial importance because of the necessity to solve some socio-economic problems such as preservation of local customs, historical and ethnic characteristics. We have identified the decentralization as one of the vital components of democratic reformation, contributing to the transparency of the authorities’ activity. The impact of decentralization processes on the indicators of sustainable rural development in Ukraine has been revealed. It manifests itself in the growth of employment and income of rural population, provision of medical and educational institutions, enhancements of road transport infrastructure, creation of conditions for business development and further diversification of economic activity in rural areas, environmental protection. The analysis of sustainable development of rural territories in the conditions of decentralization based on the application of the proposed methodology has been done. Integral indices of sustainable development of rural territories of Ukraine have been calculated using the determination of partial indices of social sphere development, economic and ecological situation. The results of modelling rural territories sustainable development in the context of decentralization can be used to make management decisions for the development and implementation of economic instruments with the aim of achieving such strategic prospects as reformation of local self-governments and territorial organization of central government in Ukraine. To analyze the impact of decentralization on achieving sustainable rural development prospects, the benefits and risks of this process have been identified.

The subject of research in this paper is the production of buckwheat on family farms in the Republic of Serbia. The main goal is to look at the situation, assess the economic effects of buckwheat cultivation, as well as the possibilities of improvement and greater representation of this production. Data were collected through a survey / interview with producers, from the websites of farms and institutions. Based on the buckwheat production technology, a calculation was made for one production cycle and important economic indicators were determined: production value, total costs, financial result, cost price, economy, and accumulation rate. These indicators are compared between conventional and organic production. The results show that buckwheat production is economically justified from the producer's point of view, but better effects are achieved by organic production.
