Annotation. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) makes a significant economic burden for the patients, their families and for the healthcare systems of different countries in general. At the same time the level of adherence to basis therapy is 30–40%. Aim of the study is to determine cost effectiveness of the measures for adherence to COPD treatment increase. 156 patients with COPD (III–IV GOLD) were included into study. The duration of the study was 13 months and it consisted of 6 visits. During each visit the adherence to treatment was measured according to value of inhaler dose counter. The instruction regarding necessity to adhere to basis therapy regimen as well as training of correct inhaler use technique were conducted. The costs for the patient with COPD treatment were calculated for 1 year before the start of the patients’ participation in the study (first year) and during their participation in the study (second year). The average value and standard error of average value were calculated for all the parameters. The comparison of parameters of intergroup differences was made with use of T-test for dependent samples and criterion χ2. It is shown that the adherence to COPD treatment rose from 44.41±1.07% to 75.21±0.78%, i.e. by 30.8% (p<0.001). On the background of adherence increase total cost for the patients treatment due to COPD diminished from 20304.88 ± 976.68 UAH to 9258.13 ± 507.90 UAH, i.e. by 54.4% during the year. Thus, adherence to COPD treatment increase permits to diminish the annual treatment cost for this disease significantly (by 54.4%). Detection of patients' visits frequency to medical institution in order to maintain the level of adherence to treatment which was already achieved has the prospect of further research.

An economic evaluation of seedling cultivation of lemon balm under drip irrigation was carried out. The profitability of growing the crop with different number of planted plants per unit area is calculated. It was found that the costs in the first year of growing lemon balm can range from 165.5 to 209.4 thousand UAH/ha, for the second year of cultivation from 154.8 to 171.3 thousand UAH/ha. The highest economic indicators were obtained in the variant with a planting density of 55.6 thousand plants/ha, where the level of profitability was 24% in the first year and 118% in the second year of cultivation. The cost structure is analyzed and the factors that most significantly affect the cost of raw materials are identified. The high efficiency of the seedling method of growing lemon balm in the conditions of drip irrigation as a means of intensification of growing technology is proved.

The results of studying the influence of natural plant growth regulators Verva  and Verva-spruce from coniferous wood greenery on the growth and development of Pinus sylvestris L. pine seedlings under the conditions of a forest nursery are presented. A comparative analysis of morphometric indices and accumulation of phytomass in the first two years of growth of pine seedlings grown from seeds treated with coniferous biopreparations of various concentration (experience) and without processing (control) is lead. Presowing treatment of seeds with Verva and Verva-spruce preparations at concentrations of 0.1 and 0.25 mL/kg by soaking within 6 hours has led to prolonged effect on growth rates of pine seedlings. Experimental seedlings had higher increments of the aerial part compared to the control: the height of the seedling tree of the first year was 40–84% higher, the second year – 29–47%; the diameter increased by 40–43% in one-year seedlings, and by 2–40% in biennial ones. High values of biometric parameters in two-year seedlings in the experimental versions correspond to the requirements for planting material of coniferous plants. The use of preparations Verva and Verva-spruce for seed presowing treatment will shorten the period of seedling cultivation and the cost of planting material.
