The law of one price serves as a criterion of market integration. The data analyzed are time series of the regional costs of a basket of basic foods (staples basket) over 2001–2015. Pairs of regional markets are divided into four groups: perfectly integrated, conditionally integrated, not integrated but tending towards integration (converging), and neither integrated nor converging. Nonlinear time series models with asymptotically decaying trends describe price convergence. Integration of Siberian regional markets is found to be fairly strong; they are integrated and converging with about 70% of country’s regions (including Siberian regions themselves). Keywords: market integration, law of one price; price convergence; nonlinear trend; Russian regions.

Alersandr V Turianskii, Andreii F Dorofeev, Aleksandr V Akinchin*, Sergeii A Linkov, and Aleksey G Stupakov. V.Ia. Gorin Belgorod State Agrarian University, 308503 Belgorod Region, Belgorodsky District, Maisky Village, Vavilova str. 1. ABSTRACT An intensive farming triggers mineralization of humus, which leads to a deterioration in the agrochemical, physicochemical, biological, and other properties of the soil. In this regard, the means for the biologization of agriculture should be given much more attention as a powerful means of increasing the fertility of the soil and the economic efficiency of agricultural production. The presented data testify to the positive influence of green manure crops as an element of biologization on the productivity of agricultural crops and the indices of soil fertility. In general, the most economically feasible for the crops studied is the variant of mustard embedding with the Sun Flower unit, which profitability level averaged 77.5%. While the least cost-effective was the option with the use of unembedded buckwheat - only 39.5%. Keywords: biologization of agriculture, green manure crop, soil cultivation, economic efficiency. *Corresponding author September–October 2018 RJPBCS 9(5) Page No. 1370 ISSN: 0975-8585 INTRODUCTION Solving the tasks of ecological safety of modern farming systems and increasing their economic efficiency should be connected with the biology of agriculture and energy conservation, one of the main principles of which is the preservation and improvement of soil fertility through the use of organic fertilizers [4, 5, 8, 9, 15, 16, 18, 19, 20, 23], while the need for rational nature management is strengthened by the transition to sustainable development of rural areas and the "green" economy, the development of the concept of land use ecologization (3, 6.7.10).

  • Management and Spatial Planning in the Coastal Zone of the Cheboksary Reservoir
    MANAGEMENT AND SPATIAL PLANNING IN THE COASTAL ZONE OF THE CHEBOKSARY RESERVOIR Inna Nikonorova [email protected] Chuvash state university 428015, Russia, Cheboksary, Moskovsky av., 15 Lowland hydroelectric reservoir created as a complex, multi-functional building. Along with a positive result, they had a number of negative consequences. Many researchers address to the problem of reservoirs, especially in the second half of the twentieth century in Russia, USA, China and some European countries (Poland, Ukraine, and others). A great contribution to the study of this field of science has Russian scientists: Avakyan, Matarzin, Ikonnikov, Shirokov, Edelstein, Ershova, Berkowitzch, Rulyova, Nazarov, et al. Cheboksary reservoir was formed by the hydroelectric dam of the same name on the river Volga. Within Chuvashia Volga has a length of 127 km. Like the whole valley, this plot suffered a complete overhaul with the establishment in 1981 of the last stage of the Volga Hydroelectric Power Plant Cascade - Cheboksary hydroelectric plant. Since 1981 Cheboksary reservoir is exploited on unplanned water-level mark - 63 m instead of 68 m on the project. It is necessary to find the optimal path of sustainable development for the Cheboksary reservoir, because for over 30 years reservoir exploited by unplanned mark (63 m instead 68 m), and Cheboksary hydro-power plant is an unfinished construction project. Department of Physical Geography and Geomorphology of the Chuvash State University studied Cheboksary reservoir since 1992.
