Methodological tools for developing a system for monitoring agricultural enterprises' activities based on forecasting their resilience to bankruptcy have been improved. In contrast to the existing methodological tools, the author's proposals are based on decomposing the priority of monitoring objects, clarifying the logic of relationships between indicators that characterize these objects, and applying probit-analysis to identify changes in the values of factors that cause a decrease in agricultural enterprise resilience to bankruptcy. The practical value of the improved methodological tools is in the possibility of its application by managers of agricultural enterprises to predict their resilience to bankruptcy. Considering the forecast is based on grading integrated monitoring objects because of their priority, the proposed tools allow identifying causal links in judgments about expectations of changing management rationality in an enterprise and an enterprise’s compliance with sustainable development values under the influence of enterprise resilience to bankruptcy.

Given the trends of the economic development, economic crisis, situation of food security, impact of the pandemic Covid-19, it is sensible to research the situation in the agricultural sector in the world and in Ukraine, identify areas for development and assess export potential. These trends indicate the appropriateness and relevance of the study. The aim of the research is to study the state of the agricultural sector of Ukraine and identify areas of development, prospects for development, assessment of export opportunities and export potential. The initial data for the research are obtained on the portal of the State Statistics Service of Ukraine. In the process of research the methods of comparison, analysis, synthesis, generalization, SWOT-analysis are used. The results of the research indicate that Ukrainian enterprises of the agricultural sector are technically equipped, produce high quality products that fit international norms, but concerning the geography of trade of most rural companies, it should be noted a great number of unexplored markets. Moreover, it should be noted that the development of export potential will be facilitated by innovations in the agricultural sector, development of infrastructure in the country, attracting investment.

The difficult economic situation in Ukraine today is the main motivating factor for studying problems and developing possible solutions. Since Ukraine is an agrarian country, in our research we justified the need to take into account risk factors in the agricultural sector by diagnosing the financial situation using models to assess the likely crisis and bankruptcy. The article highlights the advantages and disadvantages of using discriminant models developed by both foreign and domestic scientists. The main drawback is the maladaptation to the industry factor. The shortcomings of the diagnosis of financial state for agricultural enterprises are also identified. In order to develop measures to prevent bankruptcy, recommendations for improving the financial state of agricultural enterprises on the example of Lviv region cluster analysis was used. The article states that the need to diagnose the financial condition of the enterprise is systematic and requires a comprehensive assessment using various methods, techniques and methods of analysis, as it is one of the most important characteristics of the results of agricultural enterprises, which is determined by the interaction of all components of the financial relations of the enterprise, the totality of all production and economic factors. The combination of financial indicators and risk assessment, which have the greatest impact on the life of agricultural enterprises, thanks to a comprehensive approach will increase the accuracy of assessing the prospects of the financial state of agricultural enterprises.

In the period 2015-2019, the beef cattle farming sector (beef cows, beef bulls, crossbred cows with beef breeds, young male and female beef cattle and crossbreeds of young male or female young cattle with beef breeds) benefited from a total amount of 52 million euros as VCS, which represented 7.8% of the total value of coupled support for the livestock sector. The increase in the number of beef cattle, from 8 thousand heads in 2015 to 53 thousand heads in 2019, led to the decrease of the VCS value/head from 1312 euros/head in 2015 to 237.4 euros/head in the year 2019. The comparative analysis (2019 versus 2016) of the coupled support distribution by farm size classes reveals a relatively similar situation. Most beef cattle approved for coupled support, both in 2016 and in 2019, are found on the farms from the size class 101-250 heads, 31.1% and 33.5% respectively, representing 7.6% and 5.8% of beneficiaries.

In recent years, organic products have been in an increasing demand with consumers. For those who decide to make the transition from conventional to organic or to start a business with organic products, organic agriculture offers many benefits. Organic agriculture is growing in the Republic of Moldova and contributes to global agricultural exports. However, subsidies for organic agriculture are limited. In this context, the study aims to analyse the development prospects in competition with less quality but cheaper traditional products. During the research of this subject, the following methods were used: deduction and induction, analysis, comparison, tabular method and graphical method. In the Republic of Moldova, organic agriculture began to grow only in the years 2002-2004 when the dialogue with the European Union on the share of vegetables, fruits, grapes, berries produced in Moldova and exported to the EU countries began. The structure of crops grown within organic agriculture practices in the Republic of Moldova includes primarily traditional crops (wheat, corn, barley, sunflower, sugar beet, soybeans, peas, etc.), medicinal plants, orchards and vineyards. However, the implementation of organic agricultural systems in the Republic of Moldova is characterized by modest indicators compared to other European countries. Impediments to its promotion are related to the low level of investment, limited access to financial resources, low level of entrepreneurial and professional qualities of most farmers, limited size of the internal market and tough demands of foreign markets, poor harmonization of national standards with the European ones.

Large-scale application in Romania of work systems that aim to preserve soil fertility is of primary importance given that increasing arable areas are cultivated without consulting a specialist and without a system in which to take account of the short-, medium- or long-term consequences on the soil. The purpose of soil preparation works performed after the ploughing consist of breaking and crushing the structural soil clods and soil structural macro-aggregates in order to sow. For the execution of mechanized soil scarification, the preparation of the germination bed and of the sowing of maize is important for the choice of the types of tractors according to the technological work process and the biological properties of crops depending on the following indicators: gauge, size, plot size, energy consumption of agricultural machinery, land condition, humidity, and manoeuvrability. This paper aims to highlight the usefulness and economic efficiency of conservative (unconventional) works because this cultivation technology contributes to: reducing soil works to a minimum by reducing the number of machines; reducing soil setting by reducing the number of passes and work operations; reducing water and wind erosion by leaving plant remains on the soil surface; maintaining soil humidity by reducing evaporative water losses because the layer of plant remains are left on the ground; increasing the soil water capacity due to the layer of plant remains that slows water drain on the soil surface thus increasing the infiltration time; improving the physical structure of the soil; increasing the content of humus; and developing biological activity in the soil. From an economic point of view, the method is less costly because it reduces fuel consumption and working time with machines. The use of modern mechanization technologies has a great economic efficiency due to the following: works are carried out in a short period of time, so that the optimal time of technological work is respected; the number of aggregates is reduced; the number of passes on the ground is reduced; the setting of soil is reduced; wage costs are reduced; fuel consumption is reduced.

The economics of catfish production in Osun State was explored in this study. To choose 80 cat fish producers for the study, a multi-stage sampling technique was used. Descriptive statistics, farm budgeting approaches, and the OLS regression model were used to examine the data. The average age was 40 years, the average years of experience was 6, and the average household size was four people. Personal income (4.50) is the most important source of finance for the respondents' fish farming business, and money lenders (1.45) is the least important source of finance for the respondents' fish farming business. The results also revealed that disease and poor preventive measures (4.20) are the most significant constraints impacting catfish production, while a lack of fingerling supply (2.48) is the least significant constraint. Farmers incurred an average total cost of N 1,677,699.00, with a returning gross margin of N905,668 and net returns/profit of N 206,341. The findings also revealed that the farmers' benefit cost ratio (1.1229) is larger than one, and their gross ratio is 0.8905. The profitability of cat fish production was strongly influenced by pond building cost, startup capital, labor cost, feed cost, and the number of fishes, according to the ordinary least squares regression estimations. The findings show that the catfish farming business is profitable and viable. Cat fish production, on the other hand, would be more profitable if the expenditures of feeding, pond construction, and labor could be reduced. As a result, governments should encourage more people to engage in the industry by subsidizing the inputs available to producers. In addition, farm hygiene and security measures should be recommended to address the issue of ineffective preventive measures as well as the problem of predators and poaching.

The study analysed the nexus between agricultural exports and economic growth in Nigeria. Time series data covering the period between 1980 and 2018 were utilized by the study. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics, Augmented Dickey-Fuller statistics, Johansen’s co-integration method, and vector error correction mechanism (VECM). The results of the time series analysis revealed that the first difference of the variables is stationary and co-integrated. Descriptive analysis results reveal a fluctuating trend in the volume of agricultural exports and economic growth with an average of 351.99 tonnes and $24,200,000 respectively. The contribution of agricultural exports to economic growth declined progressively, with an average of 7.09 percent. VECM results reveal that agricultural exports volume and ratio of average world price to producer price of agricultural export commodities negatively affects economic growth. While exchange rate affects economic growth positively. The study concluded that agricultural exports, exchange rate, and the ratio of average world price to producer price of agricultural export commodities are significant determinants of economic growth in Nigeria. Thus, embarking on agricultural policy interventions that will stimulate increased agricultural export supply, stable producer prices of agricultural export commodities and a friendly macro-economic environment for agricultural exports would promote economic growth.

Fish is an important source of animal protein in Nigeria. The per capita consumption of fish in Nigeria has suffered a serious decline in the recent years due to declining production. The study investigated the macro-economic determinants of fisheries supply in Nigeria between 1980 and 2019. Secondary data spanning 39 years (1980 – 2019) were sourced from reputable organizations. Food and Agricultural Organization database (FAOSTAT) Nigeria Bureau of Statistics (NBS) and Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) Data were analyzed using mean, percentages coefficient of variation, Augmented Dickey-Fuller statistics, Johansen Co-integration and vector error correction model (VECM) result of statistical analysis revealed that variable of the model was stationary after first difference with co-integration among the variable Descriptive results shows the fluctuation in the agriculture capture fisheries and total fisheries supply over the study period with a mean of 88,890.48 tonnes, 453,278.80 tonnes and 547,043.50 tonnes respectively average annual growth rate of agriculture capture fishery and total fishery production were 502.42 percent, 187.98 percent, and 298.59 percent respectively. VECM results revealed that population has an asymmetric effect on total fishery supply in the short and long run. However, exchange, interest, and inflation rate negatively influence fishery supply, the study concludes that population, exchange, interest, and inflation rate significantly influence total fisheries supply in the study area. Thus, it is recommended that there is a need for significant improvement in aquaculture production and reduction in fish importation to cushion the effect of exchange, inflation, and interest rate on the economy.
