Analysis of the state of the nature reserve fund of Bila Tserkva district

Protected areas and objects ensure the preservation of biological and landscape diversity, typical and unique natural complexes, and the cultural heritage of our country. For the effective development of the regional ecological network, it is important to analyze the territorial and internal structural indicators of the nature reserve fund and identify the main problems in its functioning. The article presents the results of an analysis of the current state of the nature reserve fund in Bila Tserkva district of Kyiv region and the city of Bila Tserkva. The fund includes natural objects of three categories: 5 protected areas, 16 nature reserves, 14 natural monuments, as well as two categories of artificial objects: a dendrological park and 5 parks that are monuments of landscape architecture. The total area of protected areas in Bila Tserkva district is 3,061.15 hectares (0.47 % of the total administrative area of the region). Objects of national importance include the botanical natural monument “Kruglik” and the state dendrological park “Oleksandriya” of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, one of the oldest parks in Ukraine, which has enormous scientific, historical, and recreational value. A significant part of the protected areas is located on the territories and objects of local importance. In terms of area and structure, nature reserves and protected areas prevail, ensuring the preservation of key biotopes and individual species of plants and animals. The protected areas of Bila Tserkva region are characterized by high floristic diversity and contribute to the preservation of the hydrological balance. Reserves of local importance (hydrological, forest, ornithological, botanical) perform the function of preserving individual components of ecosystems. Natural monuments protect unique plantings, ancient trees, and natural springs with marshy meadows. The Piatigirsky, Tomylivsky, Dubovy Gai, Stavyshchansky, and Chagary parks, which are monuments of landscape architecture, perform ecological, aesthetic, recreational, and cultural functions. Based on the research conducted, the key directions for the development of the region's nature reserve fund have been identified: creating new objects of various categories; forming an ecological network of the region; conducting a comprehensive inventory of nature reserve objects with the involvement of scientists; targeted identification of promising areas for conservation etc.

Key words: nature reserve fund (NRF), NRF territories and objects, biodiversity, categories of the nature reserve fund, nature conservation areas, Bila Tserkva, Bila Tserkva district.
