The effect of fertilizers on physiological processes intensity and spruce growth in a 120 year-old blueberry spruce forest of the IVth quality grade has been studied. The study describes the change in the root respiration intensity, photosynthesis, transpiration, concentration of photosynthetic pigments, moisture content of spruce needles and their biometric parameters under the influence of mineral fertilizers (urea, double superphosphate and potassium chloride).

The article presents the results of studies on the urea content and the mass fraction of protein in the milk of cows with a tethered and loose method of maintenance, taking into account the technology of milking cows, depending on the season. The optimum content of urea, protein in cow’s milk is established in summer period, the greatest one is revealed in winter period with all milking methods and maintenance technologies
