Abstract The nursery business in Ukraine has significant potential for growth. Favorable natural conditions, government support, and the implementation of innovative technologies make this sector a promising direction for the development of the Ukrainian economy. The article explores the best practices and experiences of successful nurseries. A detailed analysis of the assortment of ornamental plants grown in Ukraine and abroad has been carried out. A Study of Modern Technologies for Growing Ornamental Plants and Favorable Climatic Conditions for Their Cultivation. An assessment of the suitability of the region for the establishment of an ornamental nursery was conducted as part of the research. The research covered the following aspects: soil composition, topography, climatic features of the area. An analysis of the availability of land plots was conducted, taking into account their location. An analysis of the regional economy was conducted to determine the feasibility and prospects of establishing a nursery. Based on the methodological recommendations, the areas of the sowing, decorative, and mother departments were calculated. The sowing department is planned to grow seedlings of large-leaved linden. According to the planned task, we need to grow 990 thousand pieces. According to the calculations, the total area of the sowing department will be 6,8 hectares. The decorative department of the nursery is planned to plant 15000 seedlings of eastern arborvitae. This will require an area of 2,58 hectares. The fruit nursery will plant 3,06 hectares of pear seedlings. The mother department will occupy an area of 0,175 hectares, where flowering weigela will be grown. The areas of the production and auxiliary parts were determined, which were 12,6 and 6,2 hectares, respectively. The total area of the nursery will be 18,8 hectares. We have also developed a detailed organizational and economic plan for the nursery, including crop rotations for the sowing department, decorative and fruit nurseries, and soil cultivation systems. This plan will be the basis for the successful creation and operation of a decorative nursery.
