Abstract

The purpose of the research was to analyze the phytosanitary status of the Kherson region for the distribution of quarantine weeds included in the «List of regulated pests» (A-2), to determine trends of changes in weedy areas by individual species. Methods. The analysis was performed from 01.01.2016 to 01.01.2021 on the basis of data of the State Service of Ukraine on Food Safety and Consumer Protection for the following species of limited spread quarantine weeds: Russian knapweed Acroptilon repens L., common ragweed Ambrosia artemisiifolia L., long-spine sandbur Cеnchrus longispinus Fernald, field dodder Cuscuta campestris Junk., and Buffalobur Solanum rostratum Dunal. During the research, the general scientific methods and the variation method of mathematical statistics were used. Results. As of January 1, 2016–2021, the area weeded with common ragweed decreased from 277011.3 to 275350.6 ha. The area infested with Russian knapweed reduced from 203162.4 to 199808.6 ha and remained stable for the last three years. As of 01.01.2016, longspine sandbur was registered on the area of 21606.5 ha, since 01.01.2017 the area of its distribution decreased to 20052.2 ha and was unchanged for the last five years. The area of the field dodder reduced during the study period from 6052.7 to 5242.0 ha. Buffalobur in the country was found only in the Kherson region on the area of 134.0 ha. Analysis of the structure of areas infested with limited spread species of weeds testifies that most of them in the Kherson region are registered in the agricultural enterprises and farms of all forms of ownership. Buffalobur was detected only in the households. Findings. In the Kherson region, from 01.01.2016 to 01.01.2021 there was a tendency to reduce the areas weeded with Russian knapweed Acroptilon repens L., common ragweed Ambrosia artemisiifolia L., long-spine sandbur Cеnchrus longispinus Fernald, and field dodder Cuscuta campestris Junk. The degree of variation of the distribution areas of these weed species over the years was insignificant, which is confirmed by the results of statistical analysis. In the Kherson region, the area of Buffalobur (Solanum rostratum Dunal.) remained unchanged.
