3 – Fertilizer application machines and equipment;
4 – Crop chemical protection machines;
5 – Irrigation machines;
6 – Machines for harvesting grain and industrial crops;
7 – Machines, units, and complexes for post-harvest processing and storage of grain crops;
8 – Machines for forage harvesting and processing;
9 – Machines for animal husbandry and poultry farming;
10 – Machines for vegetable growing, horticulture, and viticulture;
11 – Machines and equipment for forestry;
12 – Technologies and equipment for using renewable energy sources in agricultural production;
13 – Small mechanization tools in crop production;
14 – Small mechanization tools in animal husbandry.
The manuals include main technical and technological requirements for agricultural machinery, technical specifications, test results, and trends in the development of such machines and equipment.
Intended for specialists in agricultural production, agricultural machinery manufacturing and market formation, scientists, lecturers, and students.
Technical and technological assessment and optimization of systems, technological operations, and machinery complexes.
Organization of internal research (testing) of machinery to obtain objective technical and functional parameters and indicators of environmental safety, as well as expertise of technologies (technological operations) to determine environmental, energy, and economic indicators.
Monitoring of agro-resource systems using Earth remote sensing data (modeled after the European MARS system).
The technology includes monitoring and optimizing the use of agro-resource systems; agrometeorological forecasting of growth and yield of main agricultural crops; programming of agro-technologies, which together enhance the efficiency of management decisions at various levels.
Intellectualization of machines for optimizing technological processes considering environmental features.
Reduction of crop production costs, optimization of technological processes, and reduction of resource consumption through the use of intelligent machines.
Technical and technological solutions for a differentiated soil cultivation and sowing system for grain crop growing.
Reduction of costs for grain crop growing by defragmentation (ranking, universalization, intellectualization) of the machine-tractor fleet composition for 4 soil cultivation systems (traditional, conservation, mulching, and with Mini-Till elements) in farms of various soil-climatic zones.
Promising technical and technological solutions for harvesting, post-harvest processing, and grain storage.
Reduction of costs (10-15%) in the technological cycle <harvesting – grain storage> through the application of new technical solutions: threshing units, scalperators, biofuel dryers, and polyethylene sleeves.
Technical and technological solution for strip tillage and sowing in short rotation grain crop sequences (patent №98647, published 12.05.2015, bulletin №9).
The technology is used in the short rotation crop sequence <corn – corn – soybean – corn – corn> with preliminary (autumn) slotting between rows. It increases crop resilience to climate change, optimizes soil moisture regime, rational fertilizer use, and minimizes the agricultural machinery fleet.
Technical and technological solutions for expanded soil fertility reproduction and eco-friendly crop growing by increasing beneficial microflora content during the humification of crop residues and green manure crops.
Enhancement of economic efficiency of crop growing by 10-15% due to yield increase and eco-friendly technologies by reducing mineral fertilizers and pesticides application by 30-40%.
Technical and technological solutions for growing planting material and production plantations and processing biomass into energy and/or high-cellulose products.
Developed processes for forming planting material of giant miscanthus, cultivation technology, economic efficiency of growing and use as biofuel, which after 3-4 years of implementation is recognized as highly profitable.
Defined directions for using giant miscanthus as a high-cellulose (40-45%) crop in other national economy sectors.
Completed cycle <growing – harvesting – processing – utilization> of bioenergy crops for fuel. Technical and technological solutions for creating and using a bioenergy conveyor based on perennial energy crops: miscanthus and energy willow. Issues considered: provision of planting material, technologies, and machinery for growing, harvesting, processing, and use of chips or pellets as bioenergy sources. Miscanthus yield per 1 ha (20-26 tons dry matter) in energy value (GJ/ha) is equivalent to 8-11 thousand m³ of natural gas.
Technical and technological solutions for soil remediation after technogenic impact.
Determined technical-technological solutions in the context of a dual task: migration of heavy metals from soil and their accumulation in plants; enrichment of soil organic carbon through second-generation bioenergy crop Miscanthus Giganteus and multifactor adaptation of technologies to local conditions.
