Description of the field of scientific research:

Yevheniia’s research interests include agrochemistry, soil ecology, the preservation and restoration of soil fertility, as well as the scientific substantiation of fertilization systems for agricultural crops. A significant part of her research focuses on studying the effects of mineral fertilizers on the physicochemical and agrochemical properties of soils, optimizing plant nutrition, and increasing the productivity of agroecosystems.

Yevheniia’s scientific work also explores the patterns of soil cover functioning under modern land-use conditions, agrochemical monitoring, environmental assessment of soil condition, and the development of scientific principles for soil protection and rational use. An important area of her work is the scientific support of measures aimed at ensuring the sustainable use of land resources, assessing changes in soil fertility indicators, and improving approaches to their effective management.

List of duties:

Yevheniia Hladkikh is Head of the Department of Agrochemistry named after Academician of the National Academy of Agrarian Sciences of Ukraine B. S. Nosko at the National Scientific Center “Institute for Soil Science and Agrochemistry Research named after O. N. Sokolovsky.”

Her main activities include conducting fundamental and applied research in agrochemistry and soil science, participating in state-funded scientific and technical projects, carrying out field and laboratory studies, and preparing scientific and methodological recommendations in the areas of soil protection and sustainable land use.

Scientific projects:

  • Future Agricultural Resource Management and Water Innovations for a Sustainable Europe (FARMWISE)

    A project implemented under the international HORIZON-CL6-2023-ZERO POLLUTION-01-1 agreement. The project aims to transform the EU agricultural sector by providing farmers and decision-makers with an advanced decision-support system that integrates precision agriculture, artificial intelligence, and remote sensing technologies.

    Role: Project Participant

  • Development of a Digital Information System for Monitoring the Carbon Status of Ukrainian Soils under Anthropogenic Pressure

    A project implemented as part of a state-funded research and development assignment for scientific and technical (experimental) developments and scientific and technical products. The project focuses on determining and analysing the current content and stocks of organic carbon in the main soil types of Ukraine, taking into account their agroclimatic zoning, as well as analysing the relationships between organic carbon content and other agrochemical and ecotoxicological indicators that affect the carbon balance.
