Abstract
Study of periods of alluvial plain flooding and maximum levels of spring flood in different periods after land reclamation in Pripyat drainage basin. Reduction observed of periods of alluvial plain flooding in 1980 2009 period if compared to 1945 1970 period. Maximum levels of spring flood defined by observed curves of such levels show even lower values than the designed ones. These deviations may be explained by the fact that calculations done without considering regulating influence of soil aeration area after drainage and decrease of groundwaters.

Abstract
Results of calculations of key parametres for free surface curve for water stream at Svislochs cascade reservoirs considering maximum stream flow through water overflow. Assessment of interpositioning of adjacent hydrounits; conclusion most part of the reservoirs included into the cascade are located within an impact area of backwater curve. The results of the researche show that consequences of potential hydrodynamic failures are even more serious, if a free streambed area between water reservoirs is available, than if such failures happened in backwater due to water stream speed increase in such area.

Abstract
Estimation of operating conditions of absorbent wells filtering elements shown that for prevention of sedimentation in drainage overflow headers most hazardous periods are those of summer and autumn when storm rainfalls results into creation of land runoff and wash away of soil landscape. For specification of characteristics of extinguishing coupling of absorbent well, principal dependences according to calculations of land runoff volume and its flow speed generated during storm falls considering saturation capacity of the soil were stated. Sand-and gravel pits of Gluboksky region and Sennensky region served as an example for feasibility study of application of polyethylene fibrous filters in blind wells located below soil level providing that sand-and gravel silting fractions and small erosion particles (non-silting) are not spilt through filter cells.

Abstract
Results of research on improvement of water duty and efficiency increase of mineral soils at Poozerie lands by soil slitting. It was shown, that soil slitting of the drained light loam soils stimulates increase of drainage flow layer 1.2 1.5 times, as well as increase of cultivated cultures crop capacity for 10-25%. The most effect is observed at soil slitting according to a hybrid scheme: crop capacity of spring coleseed oil seeds increased by 5.1 kintal /hectares (25.4%), and winter wheat crop capacity increased by 5.2 kintal /hectares (10.6%). As soil slitting, tillage and moling are typical measures, it is advisable to perform tillage and moling according to a hybrid scheme.

Abstract
Leguminous crops according to its nitrogen-fixing activity possess the following indexes (stated in decreasing order): haying agrocoenosis-birdsfoot deer vetch, broad-leaved clover, and Lucerne; pascual agrocoenosis - white sweet clover, and lucern. Lucerne, awnless brome and birdsfoot deer vetch intensively accumulated phenols and free amino acids in rhizosphere, thus determining high soil allelopathic activity in its rhizosphere and influencing to some extent nitrogen-gathering activity of leguminous crops when these cultures included into grass mixtures. Amid reclamated soddy - podzolic soils during haying Lucerne and birdsfoot deer vetch had the highest level of nitrogen-gathering activity. Intensity of broad-leaved clover nitrogen-gathering activity in 3-4 times lower. Application of plant formation (2 and 4-cutting) did not influence intensity of symbiotic nitrogen-gathering activity of Lucerne plants.

Abstract
Due to perennial observations of agrocenological plants of meadow agricultural ecosystems researches managed to estimate life length of ontogenetic groups during control and fertilization phase. Analysis of the data obtained shown, that, irrespective of the experiments, life length of middle-aged and old generative ontogenetic groups of agrocenological plants in both experiments was identical and accounted to 48 months. Ontogenetic structure and density of dominating species are very informative data with a possibility of further predictions for existence of grass species at sown meadow.

Abstract
Results of reclamation influence study on hayfields and pastures in Belarus and Ukraine. Influence of recla-mation on botanical compound, crop capacity of grass and leguminous grass plant formation dry mass, efficiency of fertilizers application, and eatability of pasturable feed. Most effective was reclamation including irrigation while decrease of pre-reclamation humidity of light soils to 80%НВ, design layer: 0-60 cm. Spray irrigation with pre-set irrigation periods according to weather data (considering average indexes of relative humidity, air temperature and rainfall during corresponding period) is comparable to spray irrigation pre-set irrigation periods according to soil moisture and the same irrigation rate provides similar results for crop capacity of grass plant formations, and irrigation water spending. However, establishment of pre-set irrigation periods according to weather data is characterised by smaller labour input.
