Development of an Agro-Food complex on the basis of economic integrationThe agro-food complex combines agriculture, food-processing industry and agricultural trade. It has been established that integration is an effective tool for formation and functioning of this complex. However, due to the unstable political and economic situation in recent years, there is a decrease in production of certain types of food in Ukraine. A vertically integrated structure which looks like a two-tier hierarchical structure has been studied. The purpose of its functioning is profit maximization at the expense of the synergetic effect, resource saving, etc. Under strict vertical integration, profit distribution can be made on the basis of distribution mechanisms of scarce resources, using priorities where expenses of enterprises can be considered a priority. The problem of formation of an effective vertically integrated structure can be brought to solving the issue of the smallest covering of a set. It has been proved that a boundary value of an index of vertical integration is determined by a share of energy resources in the process of production and the potential of their production. In Ukraine, the use of biogas complexes can provide growth of the mentioned index to 0.25. This corresponds to the ratio of energy resources in the crop production cost structure.

seems appropriate to appeal to the paradigm of pedagogical technologies. The technological approach in pedagogy characterizes the focus on continuous optimization and improvement of the educational process, increasing its intensity and effectiveness. Among other mandatory features of pedagogical technology, scientists call a clear justification, support for the developed pedagogical theory, the appropriateness, structural and meaningful connection of all elements. The general structure of pedagogical technology of practice organization includes the following components, which are implemented in stages: diagnostics of the existing level of theoretical readiness; motivational and organizational phase; the actual process of practice; control and verification.

The paper is aimed at carrying out the social and philosophical analysis of the factors that determine the specificity of being as a resident of the megalopolis. It proves that residents of the megalopolis are subjected to double pressure: first, they are pressurized by a crowd, part of which they are forced to be constantly, and secondly – by their own ambitions and desires. All this substantially complicates the possibilities of self-presentation and self-affirmation of an individual. The thesis that traditional values are transformed or neglected in the chronotype of the megalopolis and the value of consumption becomes the only dominant is also argued.
