The proposed production technology of rape phospholipids made it possible to produce 4,5-5,5% of phospholipids from 1 kg of rape

Studying of the comparative productivity of various species and varieties of perennial grasses for the selection of the most productive species and increasing of production capacity of well-balanced feeds with low prime cost was realized in the conditions of sod-podzolic loamy soils of Vitebsk region of the Republic of Belarus. In course of study there were analyzed the following grasses: meadow clover (Trifolium pratense); creeping trefoil (Trifolium repens); great trefoil (Medicago sativa); timothy grass (Phleum pratense); meadow fescue grass (Festuca pratensis); chewing fescue (Festuca rubra); cock's-foot (Dactylis glomerata); common ryegrass (Lolium perenne); meadow foxtail (Alopecurus pratensis); awnless brome (Bromus inermis Leyss), and hybrid of fescue grass and perennial ryegrass. Studying of soil and climatic conditions in the analyzed area showed that leguminous grasses had higher yielding capacity than the cereal ones. After the 4-year observation the studied leguminous grasses provided higher yielding indexes in comparison with the cereal ones per 1 gram: dry matter – on 14,9%; available energy - on 29,7%; crude protein – on 44,7%. For the production of green mass in the conditions of Vitebsk region into the basis of planning of green and raw materials conveyor system there should be taken into consideration terms of beginning of hay cutting ripening of perennial leguminous and bluegrass grasses. Cereal grasses showed higher indexes of sugar content in 1,8 times in comparison with leguminous ones. For the provision of standard content of sugars and digestible protein in energy fodder unit it was reasonable to form grass mixtures on the basis leguminous and bluegrass grasses in ratio 60% and 40% respectively

Determination of productivity and natural resistance indexes of laying hens after application of dry multienzyme preparation Vitazim (xylanase, 3600 units/g; cellulose, 3000 units/g; beta-glucanase, 7000 units/g); as well as the specification of optimal doses the enzyme were realized in the conditions of the Republic of Belarus. Research results showed that the best indexes of egg yields of laying hens were obtained after application in the main poultry diet of enzyme preparation Vitazim in dose 500 g/t that made it possible to increase the productivity in the experimemtal group on 12%. Application of Vitazim also promoted the increasing of natural resistance level of laying hens. There was stated the positive effect of Vitazim on bactericidal activity of blood serum. Before the beginning of test this index was the level of 44,35+/-0,92 – 56,52 +/-1,63.

Determination of influence of polymorphism of gene of erythropoetin receptor (EPOR) on productive qualities of sows and reproductive characters of boars of Belarusian meaty breed was realized in the conditions of the Republic of Belarus. Research results proved the possibility of EPOR gene application as a genetic marker which determined productive abilities of swine of Belarusian selection breed. Frequency of undesirable allel EPOR**c of EPOR gene in the analyzed swine stock balanced within the frames of wide range: from 44% for Belarusian meaty breed sows up to 78% for Belarusian Kripnaya Belaya breed sows. Analysis of influence of genotype with EPOR gene on multiple fetation of sows of Belarusian meaty breed showed that sows with the preferred genotype (EPOR**tt) statistically reliable (P less than 0,01) exceeded sows with undesirable genotype (EPOR**cc) in accordance with number of alive birth piglets on 1,7 heads. Among sows of Belarusian Kripnaya Belaya breed with genotype EPOR**ct there were stated multiple fetation indexes exceeding the sows with genotype EPOR**tt on 0,5 heads. Desirable EPOR**tt genotype irrespective of sow age rendered the positive influence on their multiple fetation. It was recommended to realize genetic testing on determination og polymorphism of gene of erythropoetin receptor among the animals of Belarusian meaty and Belarusian Kripnaya Belaya breeds. Selection of parental pairs of the selection nucleus was recommended to realize taking into consideration genotypes, giving preference to animals with EPOR**t allel

In course of realized in the conditions of the Republic of Belarus evaluation of growing intensity and level of meat productivity depending on cattle sex there was conducted the scientific and economic experiment by an example of two groups of white-and-black bull-calves and heifer calves. In the first growing period the animals of experimental groups were fed with milk substitute. At the stage of completion of growing and fattening the bulls and heifers of experimental groups obtained ration containing haylage, plus 2 kg of flattened grains and 2 kg mixed fodders. Results of linear and weight indexes analysis showed that in changes of exterior of bulls and heifers of black-and-white breed there was noted a certain regularities in their growth and development. The most intensive growth and development of analyzed young cattle was stated at age from 6 till 12 months. At the same time, bulls exceeded heifers according to the main exterior indexes. According to the visual evaluation of bulls and heifers there were determined the differences in constitutional type
