INFORMATION BASE OF THE RESEARCH RESULTS FOR THE ECONOMIC ASSESSMENT OF AGRICULTURAL CULTIVATION TECHNOLOGIES
The accumulation of a large volume of the research results in scientific institutions requires their formalized systematization for the convenience of storage and further use in the relation to modern economic conditions. The data on long-term that have already been completed are of particular value. Various crop rotations, methods of tillage, doses and methods of fertilization, plant protection systems have been studied in such stationary tests in Kurgan Research Institute since the 70s of the 20th century. The purpose of present research is the development of the information base of the research results on crop cultivation technologies and creation of a management program for it. Methods of monographic, mathematical, and economic analyses were used. The object of the research as an example of using the program was data on the yield of some stationary studies of Kurgan Research Institute. The novelty lies in automating the creation of database based on the completed reference books on the experiments and saving the calculation results in the program for the economic assessment of crop cultivation technologies posted on the Internet as a web application. The preservation of field research results in the reference books of the program for calculating the economic efficiency of technologies allows for the economic assessment of agricultural technology options studied in different years, in relation to modern prices for products and resources. At the same time all data are tied to specific agrochemical characteristics during the experiments, which also allows you to fill in the database on soil fertility parameters. The economic analysis of the results of some studies of Kurgan Research Institute allowed us to identify the currently economically effective types of grain-pair crop rotations, including with oilseeds and legumes, minimal methods of tillage, optimal doses of nitrogen fertilizers number 40. The practical value of the work lies in the possibility for scientific organizations and agricultural enterprises to use the database in the design and economic evaluation of technologies for growing crops in the specific soil-climatic and economic conditions.
