Cluster organization of the economy is the basis for sustainable development of the state. P. 13–20
The global economy is experiencing turbulence caused by sanctions and various kinds of restrictions, in connection with which the traditional chains of production and marketing of goods and services have been disrupted, many companies are becoming bankrupt. At the same time, business entities are beginning to truly understand the importance of cooperation and integration, and in these difficult conditions they are trying to more actively interact with other participants in market relations in order to overcome competition and sanctions.
It has been established that clusters are currently a promising form of interaction between enterprises and organizations. Their capabilities allow us to withstand competition and increase production and sales volumes, enter new markets. To improve the efficiency of functioning of cluster structures, a number of directions have been proposed – optimization of cost, material and technical base of production, labor and material costs for production. Accounting for each of them in direct interaction with each other will make it possible to form in practice the appropriate mechanisms that give clusters advantages over competitors.

The article describes agricultural plants as an economic category participating in the production cycle as the main subject and means of labor. The specific feature of plant objects participating in the production cycle is revealed, taking into account the impact on them of man-made and natural factors that change in space and time during the growing season. Cultivated plants are presented as one of the material resources in crop production, subject to moral and material deterioration. Variety changes and variety renewals are considered as an innovative process that provides for overcoming the consequences of this wear. The necessity and economic significance of these processes are emphasized. The relationship between the frequency of replacement and renewal of the variety with the degree of realization by the variety (hybrid) of their biological and economic potential realized in the production process is noted. The importance of plant potential management in terms of adaptation to climate change is reflected.

Radiological and economic efficiency of the cesium-137 sorbent. P. 80–86
On the territory of radioactive contamination, in the system of measures aimed at reducing the uptake of radionuclides by livestock products, a large place is occupied by the methods of introducing cesium-binding sorbents into the diets. However, the disadvantage of their use is the lack of the local production in Belarus.
The article discusses the radiological and economic efficiency of the caesium-137 sorbent of the Belarusian origin. It has been established that the Belarusian-made enterosorbent in the diet of rabbits at a dose of 2 g/head, 4 g/head and in the diet of bulls at a dose 40 g/head is 1,4, 2,6 and 1,15 times respectively more effective than pure ferrocine. Starting from the 5th to the 20th day of using the carbon sorbent, there is a decrease in the content of cesium-137 in the milk of cows from 1,7 to 4,5 times.
The cost per 1 thousand Bq of the difference in the accumulation of cesium-137 in rabbit meat in case of the Belarusian sorbent at a dose of 2 g/head by 7,6 times lower in comparison with ferrocine, at a dose of 4 g/head by 4,0 times, in beef by 5,5 times, in milk by 5,2 times lower.
