Scientific support of the organization of state regulation of seed production development in Ukraine

In recent years, Ukraine has seen rapid growth in agricultural business, which is a key sector of the Ukrainian economy. Farmers are well aware that to reduce production costs in crop production, improve product quality, and increase profitability, it is extremely crucial to use high-quality seed material. The purpose of the research - based on the results of the analysis of the state of the seed industry of the country and scientific support of the organisation of state regulation of seed development in Ukraine to substantiate proposals for its improvement, using the experience of advanced countries. Justify measures designed to improve the system of domestic legislation in the field of seed production, payment of breeding and licensing fees and proposals to reduce the dependence of agricultural production on seed imports. Methods used: monographic (analysis of the state of scientific support of the organisation of state regulation of seed product development in the country); statistical (to reflect the state of domestic seed production in quantitative and cost terms through a system of absolute and relative indicators); analysis of series of dynamics, structural changes (to analyse and identify trends in the development of seed production in Ukraine); tabular and graphical (visual display of research results in the form of tables and graphs), comparison (comparison of economic indicators); abstract-logical (generalisation and development of conclusions). The current state and prospects of scientific support of the organisation of state regulation of seed production in Ukraine are analysed. The problems of the development of domestic seed production are determined. The experience of leading countries in the field of seed production and the possibility of its use in Ukraine are highlighted. Summarised the current state of the organisation of state regulation of seed production in Ukraine. Proposals for improving its scientific support have been developed. New science-based approaches to improving the system of license fees, regulatory framework and ways to reduce import dependence on seeds were proposed. The proposed ways to overcome the existing problems in the industry will allow raising it to the level of world powers by changing approaches to royalty payments, increasing the productivity of seed production and improving the legislation regulating seed production in Ukraine
