The results of the farms' study and observations provide us with an opportunity to identify the causes of reduced efficiency of agricultural farms production. The most common causes of low-effective use of irrigation water and agricultural production are:

• Unstable supply of irrigation water to the farms;
• Inappropriate schemes and irrigation technology options;
• Unnormalized use of irrigation water;
• Use of fertilizers regardless to types, timing and application rates;
• Poor quality of technical and agricultural land treatment;
• Delays in pest and diseases control.

Based on the analysis of the current situation in the farms, the following recommendations for organization and imple-mentation of agricultural operations, including the various technologies of crops irrigation and land treatment have been developed.

It is recommend to do to obtain a good harvest and profit:

• Use effective technological scheme of irrigation, taking into account the characteristics of each field;
• Use irrigation water in accordance with the requ-irements of the crop considering the soil-reclamation conditions;
• Apply the recommended norms of mineral and organic fertilizers within the recommended time schedule;
• Use the control measures against diseases and pests effectively;
• Conduct all agronomic works on timely basis.
