, , Analysis of the elements of production costs as ways to improve the formation processes of dairy farming in order to increase the efficiency of its development are revealed in the given research.
The basis of the agricultural sector of Ukraine is agriculture. Since the mid 90’s farming Ukraine has undergone great changes. Free market economy replaced the planned economy. The country suffered a severe economic crisis, which led to a decline in production in all sectors of agriculture, especially in livestock industry.
An integrated approach of research aspects of production costs of agriculture, especially dairy industry will improve the efficiency of production, will introduce a reasonable offer on the operational management of production costs.
Generalized practice of dairy farming allows to draw conclusions that the main prospects in Ukraine dairy farming in the context of the integration of this sector into the global economy is implementing of dairy farming based on economy with further processing of big industrial enterprises.
The main task at this stage is to develop and implement the necessary measures to increase milk production, reducing its cost. The main factor to achieve these goals in the first place is to increase the productivity of dairy cattle.

It should be noted that for the organization of production processes in dairy farming an important decision is to develop technical and organizational level of the production process, such as the scale of production – production capacity, the form of the technological process — the kind and type of production. Through their production costs, namely the questions of production technology, it affects the outcome of management — profit.
Economic mechanism of production costs is a systematic account of the influence of elements and their combination with a purpose of producing products with minimum costs to maximize efficient of production., Соколюк С. Ю., , , |

| Abstract | The study demonstrates that agritrading is a strategic element in shaping Ukraine's modern trade model. In 2022–2024, exports of grains and oilseeds via western logistics routes increased to over 5.5 million tons per year, confirming the agricultural sector's ability to quickly adapt to sea port blockades, logistics restrictions, and global market turbulence. The reorientation of flows to Danube ports, EU land corridors, and multimodal hubs made it possible to maintain continuity of supply, secure foreign exchange earnings, and strengthen the country's macroeconomic stability. Digitalization and technological upgrades in agricultural trading contribute to greater transparency, speed, and predictability of operations. The use of electronic trading platforms, automated contracting systems, and analytical services allows for effective planning of purchases and sales, minimization of logistics risks and price fluctuations, and integration of Ukraine into global supply chains. The active participation of international traders stimulates infrastructure modernization, attracts investment, and increases the competitiveness of the agricultural sector. Agrotrading not only performs a commercial function, but also acts as a systemic regulator of market balance, determining the structure of commodity flows, priority logistics routes, and formats of interaction between producers, traders, and international partners. The integration of digital technologies, risk insurance, and analytics creates conditions for increasing the efficiency of trade operations, reducing delivery times, and ensuring macroeconomic stability. Thus, agritrading is a key driver in shaping Ukraine's modern trading system. Its development depends on the production potential of the agricultural sector, the modernization of logistics infrastructure, the introduction of digital technologies, and active state and international support. Ensuring the sustainability and competitiveness of agricultural exports requires further improvement of risk management, the development of transparent trading platforms, and integration into global markets, which will ensure the adaptability and stability of trade even in the face of external shocks and market instability. | ||
