In 2011 the Institute carried out research according to the Plan of fundamental and applied research priorities of the Russian Agricultural Academy. Its aim was scientific support of the agro-industrial complex of the Russian Fede ration in 2011–2015 as well as implementing the R & D plan of the Institute for 2011. Th e Institute has also been coordinating research on fodder production in the Russian Federation and worked on other projects of the Russian Agricultural Academy Program as a co-executor.

Keywords: forage production, forage quality, animal husbandry, crop production, arable farming, environmental management.

The paper presents experimental data on the effect of different doses, timing and methods of foliar feeding with solutions of salts of trace elements, on productivity of Arctagrostis latifolia. The provided information is valuable for developing methods of controlling the nutrient fl ow in the grassland agro-ecosystems of the Far North-East, providing an increase in the use of plant nutrients and improving the quality of forages grown.

Keywords: trace elements, Arctagrostis latifolia, productivity, feed quality.

To organize the conveyor system of preparation of high quality feeds, and obtaining the dry weight yield of not less than 40–50 kg/ha in the Volga steppe, it is recommended to sow during surface improvement of floodplain meadows three groups of perennial grasses divided according to their earliness. Th e most early-maturing is goat‘s rue and twicecut red clover. Th e middle-ripe is goat‘s rue with red clover, smooth brome-grass and meadow fescue. The late-ripe herbage is alfalfa with goat’ s rue and once-cut red clover.

Keywords: herbal link of green conveyor, maturity, development phase, feed quality, bio-energy coefficient.
