Economic efficiency of winter wheat seeds cultivation under various predecessors and sowing periods in the central part of the Forest-Steppe of Ukraine

Using modern scientific and practical approaches in the context of climate change, an important issue is the realization of yield potential of new winter wheat varieties. The aim of the work was to conduct research on the development of more advanced and cost-effective agrotechnical methods for growing winter wheat seeds after two predecessors and two sowing dates in the central part of the Forest-Steppe. The research was conducted at the V.M. Remeslo Myronivka Institute of Wheat of the NAAS of Ukraine during 2019– 2021. The object of research was innovative winter wheat varieties of Myronivka selection: MIP Fortuna, MIP Yuvileyna, MIP Lada, Aurora Myronivska, MIP Lakomka and Podolyanka (standard). The research was conducted after two predecessors: soybean and sunflower and during sowing on September 25 and October 5. On average, over 3 years of research the highest yield after the predecessor was obtained in the following sunflower varieties: MIP Yuvileyna, sown on September 25, 5.52 t/ha, and sown on October 5, 4.84 t/ha; MIP Fortuna, 4.30 t/ha and 4.81 t/ha, respectively. When sowing after soybeans, the highest yield was obtained for the MIP Yuvileyna variety, sown on September 25, 6.25 t/ha. During sowing on October 5 the MIP Fortuna and MIP Yuvileyna varieties yielded 5.47 t/ha and 5.0 t/ha respectively. The results obtained indicate that in central part of the Forest-Steppe it is better to sow winter wheat after soybeans from September 25 to 30, and after soybeans the MIP Fortuna variety is better to sow from October 5 to 10. The cost of growing winter wheat, depending on the predecessor sunflower, varied from 3841 to 5183 UAH/t for the first sowing period (September 25), and from 4206 to 6310 UAH/t for the second (October 5). Net operating profit after the predecessor sunflower was from 19700 to 34000 UAH/t for the first sowing period and 12400 and 29200 UAH/t for the second, and after the predecessor soybean – 25300, 41300 and 16600, 33500 UAH/t respectively. During sowing on September 25, the highest profit of 41,300 and 34,000 UAH/t was recorded at the MIP Yuvileyna after the predecessors soybean and sunflower.

Key words: winter wheat, variety, sowing date, crop yield, economic efficiency.
