Lisovenko T. Scientific-technical innovations in cattle breeding of Ukraine in the XX-th – beginning of the XXI-st centuries.

The dissertation deals with the theme of the development of technical means used during the cattle-feeding and gives thorough research of this problem. It determines the tendencies and conformities of the appearance of technical means, that makes it possible for the first time to research the history of the process of mechanization of cattle breeding in the sphere of giving out fodder. The work gives complex analysis of technical and constructive peculiarities of means of mechanization in the process of cattle feeding. There is a deep research of chronological of creation of these technical object and there is a periodicity of the process of their development, the main stages of their evolution, the factors and motive forces, that make it possible to show historical picture of appearance of this type of technique. The work gives the thorough research of patent material, that characterize the evolution of scientific idea on theoretical level, determines the directions of work of the scientific-research institutions at creation and improvement of means of mechanization of the process of cattle feeding. There is also representation of the complex analysis of the evolution of foreign technical means used in cattle feeding and it is said about the historical accordance of their development with our native direction. The objective analysis according to the laws of staged development and homological stage of evolution of means of mechanization, determines perspective directions in improvement of technical means in cattle feeding.
