The research work covers two main issues, i.e. natural and agrotechnical conditions of spring triticale yielding and the impact of natural and anthropogenic factors on water quality, among which the most important research areas include: The impact of natural factors, including water availability and cultivation technology on the size and quality of the yield of light spring triticale; Environmental effects of exclusion (fallow and set aside) and restoration of soil to agricultural production; The impact of meteorological conditions, the type and method of soil management and the intensity of agriculture on the quality of water flowing out of rural areas with drainage systems; The impact of a rural homestead on the pollution of ground and surface waters; Quality and needs of treatment of groundwater intended for consumption; Dynamics of the water cycle in the conditions of lignocellulosic biomass production on agricultural land; Factors influencing the dynamics of matter circulation in catchments of watercourses and lakes.
