The concepts of urban and peri-urban agriculture, although they are not new, are current as a result of the fact that one of the problems that arose during the Covid-19 crisis was that of food security as a result of the need to ensure food resources from nearby sources , in the conditions in which transport and other sectors of activity have reduced or suspended their activity. In this paper, we propose that, starting from the study of the specialized literature regarding urban and peri-urban agriculture, to identify their development possibilities, to identify the forms of practice of urban and peri-urban agriculture, to present the strengths and weaknesses weak related to their development and to propose solutions for their integration in the development of cities on a sustainable basis. The research methodology assumed the study of specialized literature, the consultation of internal and international databases, the processing and analysis of data with the aim of formulating conclusions that can be the basis of future studies, but also formulating conclusions that can be integrated into future policies regarding the development of urban and peri-urban agriculture, taking into account the fact that at the moment there is still no exact formulation regarding their support.

In order to determine the influence of the castration method on the indicators of the meat cuts of pig carcasses, two groups of 74 boars were selected. Surgical castration was carried out in one of them, and immunological vaccination method was used in the other group. Both surgically castrated and immunocastrated boars were reared and fattened under the same conditions. And at the end of fattening, they were slaughtered and their carcasses evaluated for weight and proportion of meat cuts separately in the cervical-scapular, back-lumbar and pelvic-femoral thirds. The result of the assessment was the establishment of a significantly higher value of the weight indicators of such meat cuts as single-grade pork from the neck by 0.3 kg or 20.0% (P <0.01) and the weight of lard with skin by 0.6 kg or 13.64 % (P <0.05) in the shoulder-scapular third of the carcass and single-grade pork per 0.2 kg or 15.38% (P <0.05) in the pelvic-femoral third of the carcass in immunocastrated pigs. A significant difference in the weight and content of other meat cuts of carcasses was not established with the use of immuno- and surgical castration of pigs.

The study is dedicated to the substantiation of peer land plots exchange in the course of land consolidation. The issue of the allowable difference of the values of land plots, considered to be peer, has been examined. The legally established 10 % allowable difference has been scrutinized. The evaluation of value difference ranges of land plots, considered to be peer, has been carried out. The formation of land plot value at peer exchange in Ukraine has been analysed. It has been revealed, that due to the vague definition of the allowable difference of land plot values and poorly elaborated evaluation, there arises an uncertainty of 1/110 (≈0.9%) to 13/220 (≈5.9%) of the land plot value. It complicates the voluntary involvement of landowners to land reallotment and potentially leads to disputing the peer land exchange in the court. With the example of an interspersed land plot within a land mass in Cherkasy Region, potential loss due to inaccurate demands to the valuation of land plots to be exchanged and poorly elaborated valuation methodology, has been calculated. An approach to the specification of the affordable land plot value range which excludes uncertainties has been suggested. The results can be used for the improvement of land reallotment modeling based on heuristic and optimization methods.

In a society dominated by technology and undergoing a profound digital transformation in all sectors, we cannot deny the influence of ICT in education in all its forms. Educational models based on technology will dominate society in one form or another, and the Internet, along with traditional methods, can make education more effective, but what remains for us to know is "how". The paper studied the main characteristics of different types of learning systems (e-learning, online learning, blended learning, etc) in order to make a critical review on the connection between ICT-based tools and education. The main purpose was to point out the emerging learning models specific to the new architecture of educational paradigms and to identify the factors influencing their implementation.

The paper studied the evolution of agricultural services sector in Romania. The data regarding agricultural services were retrieved from the Tempo online database and the analysis is also based on FADN data. The analyse had some limitations due to the insufficient statistic data in the field because, at national and regional level, the statistical value of agricultural services doesn’t reflect the reality in the field. At farm level, due to the fact that he FADN sample design is achieved through a rotating panel technique the data from the analysed period (2010-2020) are not fully comparable. However, our research revealed a positive evolution in the last decades and a continuous development of rural business environment. In 2020, the services provided by third parties (“work carried out by contractors and to the hire of machinery”) were much higher in horticulture and mixed farms (TF8), in specialist horticulture and mixed livestock farms (TF14) and in the farms from Bucharest-Ilfov Region. The analyse of the share of these costs in total intermediate consumption puts on the first places the mixed and mixed crops farms and the farms from North-East Region.

The article describes the role of land resources in the financial support of rural areas of Ukraine. To determine the importance of land resources in the financial sustainability of rural areas, a detailed analysis of their financial potential in the budget system was carried out. It is determined that one of the main sources of filling rural budgets of Ukraine is the payment for land, which averages 46.4% of revenues from the total amount of local taxes and fees. In order to identify the spatial uneven distribution of land resources and tax revenues from land payments, have formed three clusters of rural communities depending on the share of land fees in total local tax revenues. The results of the cluster analysis showed the presence of a significant financial potential of land resources in the majority of rural territorial communities of Ukraine. This potential can be realized by implementing the experience of communities where the share of land fees reaches more than 70% of the total amount of local taxes while a high level of total revenues. To analyze the impact of land use efficiency on rural finance, it is proposed to establish a link between land resources and budget indicators. With the help of correlation-regression analysis on the example of rural territorial communities of Cherkasy region of Ukraine, a direct and close relationship between the land area of territorial communities and local taxes and fees was revealed. The results of such an analysis of the impact of land resources on the efficiency of budgetary processes make it possible to respond appropriately to the land management system and land use efficiency.

The Lithuanian agricultural system survived paramount structural changes after the country had joined the EU. This paper investigates the case of peas. The study applies qualitative and quantitative methods in order to identify the potential of this raw material and map the most important solutions that allow to increase value added by introducing new products. Results suggest that in 2004 the harvested peas were mainly directed to domestic uses, while in 2020 farmers were mainly producing this crop for the export of dry peas. Indeed, the creation of the higher value-added products is a desired alternative for the locally produced raw material. The combination of literature and other relevant sources analysis and expert interviews allows us to identify food and feed directions as the most attractive ways to increase value added. However, experts suggest that the Lithuanian market imposes some restrictions on business development.

Both during the pandemic period and the period immediately following, restrictions and limitations were imposed on the entire economy, including access to culture and education in the countryside. Promoting online events as a safe medium of manifestation has attracted the public's attention by creating reactions in social media. The present work aims to analyze the reactions of members of social networks, both to the promotion of cultural events and to the dissemination of key moments of cultural programs. In the proposed analysis we studied the data counted and made available through social network applications.

Grain crops, fats and oils of animal or vegetable origin are the main products of the agricultural sector of Ukraine with the greatest export potential. Their total share in Ukraine’s total exports in 2021 was 28.4 %. Within the framework of the article, a comprehensive analysis of the distribution of Ukrainian exports of grain crops, fats and oils between EU member states was conducted. The analysis was conducted on the basis of statistical data of the State Statistics Service of Ukraine for 2021. The study used ABC-method, which allows to divide the initial set of objects into three subsets depending on their share in the total value of a certain indicator: A – about 80 %; B – about 15 %; C – about 5 %. It is determined that the largest recipients of Ukrainian grain crops in the EU (worth more than USD 65 mln) are countries such as Spain, the Netherlands, Italy (group A), as well as Belgium, Portugal, Ireland (group B). Ukraine has not exported grain crops to two EU countries (Luxembourg and Slovenia). At the same time, most Ukrainian fats and oils in the EU (worth more than USD 25 mln) were purchased by countries such as the Netherlands, Spain, Poland (group A), as well as Italy, France, Lithuania, Portugal and Germany (group B). Ukraine did not export fats and oils to Luxembourg.

Recently, in Romania special attention was given to the culture of Saskatoon berry (Amelanchier alnifolia Nutt.), a species originating from North America, whose berries are very appreciated both for their nutritional and medicinal values. The aim of this study was to highlight the yield of a culture installed in Bărzani Farm, Arad county, Romania.. The plants were produced in 2012 from seeds originating from Alberta (Canada). In the first two growing seasons the plants were kept into a nursery and specific treatments were applied. In Autumn 2013, the plants were transferred to two experimental plots, with a total area of 0.74 hectares, and a 3 m x 1 m planting scheme was adopted (i.e. 3 meters between the rows and 1 meter between the plants in the same row). Starting with 2018 different fertilizers were applied and soil analysis were performed. In most of the cases as regards the main micro- and macro-elements from the soil increasing trends were recorded thanks to the applied fertilizers. As regards the harvested quantities in the last five growing seasons, they grew from 1,250 kg (in 2018) to 6,800 kg (in 2022), meaning that, on average, each plant produced from 0.5 kg (in 2018) up to 2.7 kg (in 2022). The results recorded in the two experimental plots from Bărzani Farmrepresent an important step in the breeding program of his species in Romania.
