Abstract

 

Purpose. To identify the peculiarities of the recovery territories of the ecological network of Zhmerinsky district of Vinnytsia region.

Methods: field, cartographic  system  analysis.

Results. The total area of the recovery territories of the ecological network of Zhmerinsky district is 5449,61 hectares, that is 4.8 % of the area of ​​the district. They include Dubovska, Zorincivska, Lisogirkivska, Petranivska, Sloboda-Mezhirivska, Karmalyukovska, Vasilivkivska, Pultivcivska, Lyudavska, Demidivska, Potokivska, Rizhavska, Zhmerinska, Petrivkivska, Kichmanska, Yaroshenkivska, Tarasivkivska, Travnevska, Noskivecka, Luka-Movchanska, Murashkivska, Chapayivska, Oleksandrivska territories. They cover channel, floodplain, slope and watershed types of landscape terrains. Balka tracts on the slopes of river valleys with forest and meadow vegetation are dominant. It was revealed that the main anthropogenic factors of nature degradation of the recovery territories are cattle grazing, haymaking, gathering of mushrooms, berries, flowers, illegal felling of trees, pollution by household waste, discharge of household sewage into rivers and streams. The main environmental measures should be the cessation of erosion processes, restoration of diversity and protection of flora and fauna, elimination of natural landfills of household waste. 

Conclusion. 23 recovery territories are identified in the structure of the ecological network of Zhmerinsky district of Vinnytsia region. To compensate for the small number of biocenters in the future, most recovery territories have been allocated in the north-western, southern and south-eastern parts of the district. Their characteristic features are analized and renaturalization measures are proposed. Due to these measures it will be possible to restore degraded areas of nature, increase the number and the area of ​​key, connecting and buffer areas. As a result, the state of the environment, living conditions of flora, fauna and vital activities of the population will improve.
