THE WAYS OF INTENSIFICATION OF FORAGE PRODUCTION IN KRASNOYARSK REGION
The research objective was to designate the ways of the intensification of forage production in Krasnoyarsk Region at present stage. The analysis of the condition of forage production in Krasnoyarsk Region shows that specific weight of grain and forage cultures, including leguminous has been lost, their share makes 32.9 % in the structure of grain production. Owing to the lack of grain of oats and barley for fodder purposes wheat grain leading to the overexpenditure of concentrated forages is used. The area of natural fodder grounds has consid-erably decreased; the works on their improvement prac-tically have not been carried out. The main problems of regional forage production are high costs of forages, owing to low productivity of forage crops, imbalance of food supply and poor quality of forages. Effective recep-tions of intensification of forage production in Krasno-yarsk Region are offered. The main receptions are the creation of food supply adapted to the environment of Krasnoyarsk Region; the differentiation of production of forages depending on the degree of animal husbandry intensification; the reduction of forages costs by using qualitative raw materials corresponding to prepared type of forage: the best raw materials for hay and senage - perennial cereal and bean and bean and cereal grass mix, for grain grass mixture - annual cereal and cereal-legume grass mixtures, for silo- corn and its mixed and joint crops with soy, beans, sunflower, annual cereal and bean grass mix regional system of seed farming of forage crops on the basis of modern zoned varieties of adapted annual and perennial types; the improvement of natural fodder grounds, introduction of pasture and grass rotation; accurate observance of technological operations at preparation of forages, their correct stor-age, updating of park of forage equipment, rational use of arable land and natural fodder grounds. Multicompo-nent cereal and bean grass mixture for the production of green material, hay and senage providing profitability of 139.7-331.3 % are offered.
