Department’s Research Profile:
1. Studies on the productivity of major forage crop species used for the production of protein and energy feed;
2. assessment of the nutritional value of feed components;
3. the development and improvement of agri-technology of major domestic legume species and their mixtures with cereals and soya;
4. development and improvement of agrotechnology for maize and sorghum in different cultivation systems, using preservation systems;
5. improvement of the technology for the production of roughage from grasses and their mixtures with small-seeded legume plants;
6. assessment of the physiological state of forage plants depending on stress factors (abiotic stress) and agrotechnical treatments applied;
7) searching for possibilities of increasing the effectiveness of biological fixing of nitrogen by legume plants;
8) development and improvement of agrotechnology of intensive and local forage crop species and cultivars under conditions of organic farming;
9) research on the efficiency of the use of fodder area depending on the size of the cow herd and the natural, organisational, and economic conditions.
