With a seed protein content of 15-18%, amaranth surpasses wheat (12-14%), rice (7-10%), maize (9-10%), and other grain crops. The purpose of this study was to establish the optimal seed sowing rates for amaranth under the conditions of the Western Ukrainian Forest-Steppe zone. The study employed general scientific methods such as analysis, synthesis, experimentation, description, observation, and comparison, as well as field methods like phenological observations and record-keeping, along with statistical and correlation-regression analyses for data processing. The sowing rates of the variety Kharkivskyi 1 were investigated under conditions of sufficient moisture on dark-grey forest soil. It was found that the field germination varied with different sowing rates. At a sowing rate of 0.2 million seeds/ha, the field uniformity was 70%, but it decreased to 60% at a sowing rate of 1.2 million seeds/ha, representing a 10% decrease. Higher sowing rates resulted in greater plant density. In the seedling stage, there were 14 plants per 0.2 million seeds/ha sowing rate, while at 1.2 million seeds/ha, the number of plants increased to 72/m². Plant survival during the vegetation period sharply decreased with increased planting density, from 86% at a sowing rate of 0.2 million seeds/ha to 45% at a sowing rate of 1.2 million seeds/ha. Therefore, before harvesting, the plant density was adjusted to 12-32 plants/m². The best combination of the main elements of the structure was found to be 21 plants/m² and 26 plants/m², with a grain weight per plant of 20.4g and 16.1g, respectively. The highest grain yield of amaranth variety Kharkivskyi 1 was obtained at sowing rates of 0.4 million seeds/ha and 0.6 million seeds/ha, resulting in 4.28 t/ha and 4.20 t/ha, respectively. Any increase or decrease in sowing rates led to a decrease in the yield level.

This study is a survey with an exploratory descriptive methodology based on data from both field and laboratory research. Prediction model analysis using the Bayesian Neural Network (BNN) method on 12geographical units, sampling spots were selected with intention. The following variables were measured: soil (pH level, Organic-C, Total-N, Available-P, Available-K, soil types, elevation, slope) and climate (rainfall, evapotranspiration). According to the statistical analysis used, the BNN model’s performance has the highest accuracy, with an RMSE value of 0.448 t/ha, which compares to the MLR and SR models, indicating the lowest error deviation. To obtain the ideal parameter sampling design, parameter distribution is directly and simultaneously optimised using an optimisation technique based on Pareto optimality. The top 7 data sets (slope, available-P, evapotranspiration, soil type, rainfall, organic-C, and pH) yielded the highest accuracy based on the test results for the three-parameter groups. The coefficient of determination has the highest value, 0.855, while the RMSE test for the model using the top 7 data set has the lowest error value at 0.354 t/ha and 18.71%, respectively.

Clary sage is a valuable and prospective crop for the South of Ukraine and deserves special attention. This study is aimed to investigate theoretical mechanisms of clary sage productivity formation on the irrigated lands of the Southern Ukraine. The experimental basis for the study is the data on crop inflorescence yields, collected during field investigation of clary sage cultivation technology in the dripirrigated lands of the Kherson Oblast during 2013-2018. Theoretical study on the yield formation depending on the cultivation technology elements was performed through rank correlation and heteroscedasticity analyses, while the mathematical model for the crop yield prediction was developed using multiple regression. As a result, the null hypothesis about the influence of the factors studied on crop yields was denied according to the Breusch-Pagan and Glejser tests, although the results of the analysis of variances revealed no significant effect of the depth of the plough and the spacing of the crop on the yields. Rank correlation analysis revealed that the highest influence on crop yield is attributed to phosphorus fertilisers. In addition, information on the influence of each agrotechnological factor on the yield of clary sage was determined, namely: 1 kg of nitrogen fertilisers applied per ha reduces the yield by 6.34 kg; 1 kg of phosphorus fertilisers applied per ha increases the yield by 156.44 kg; 1 extra cm of row spacing reduces the yield by 3.33 kg; 1 cm deeper ploughing improves the yield by 56.56 kg.

The goal was to conduct scientifically based zoning of varieties and assess their adaptive and productive potential in terms of productivity and nitrogen fixation. The study was conducted in the training and production department of the Uman National University of Horticulture during 2020-2022, using six varieties common in production. Standard methods of genetic and statistical analysis were used to investigate the parameters of adaptive variability. The study of phenological changes showed that, depending on the variety, it takes from 54 to 67 days before the onset of technical ripeness, and the variation of this trait is 8%. The shortest period before harvesting green beans was characterised by the varieties Zorenka and Casablanca. The variation of the growing season before the onset of biological ripeness was in the range of 90-108 days (CV=6%). According to the indicator of attachment of the lower bean, suitable varieties for mechanised harvesting were identified – Zorenka and Casablanca. Analysing the parameters of adaptability of the “bean weight” and “yield” indicators, a stable variety was found – Fruidor and highly productive varieties of intensive type Paloma, Laura, Zorenka, and Casablanca. The most productive variety was Zorenkya – 12.7 t/ha, and the least productive – Fruidor – 1.9 t/ha.

Analysing the dependence of the growth and development parameters of green bean plants, it can be seen that these traits depend more on the conditions (CVA, %) in which they were formed than on the genotypic component (CVG, %).
