The purpose of this study is to evaluate the process of agricultural development by determining the effectiveness of fertilizer application for various crops within the framework of fostering an ecological environment that underpins economic security. The following general scientific and special research methods were used in the research: monographic, logical-theoretical, statistical, economic-mathematical, system analysis, computational-analytical, abstract-logical, and generalization. The effectiveness of fertilization for sowing crops under conditions of restriction of agricultural land has been assessed. The essence of the concept of ecological environment, which is formed as a result of agricultural activity through the use of mineral and organic fertilizers to ensure effective land cultivation, has been proved. Correlation-regression analysis is used to identify the relationship between the volumes of application of mineral and organic fertilizers for crops of cereals and leguminous crops (without corn), corn, industrial crops, and fodder crops, which made it possible to identify a significant dependence in most cases. Still, a variety of types of regression equations are observed. Therefore, it is proposed to use a non-parametric method of estimation, which is the method of analysis of the operating environment. For the first time, the expediency of assessing the ecological environment by constructing a non-parametric boundary model based on two relative indicators, the share of the fertilized area and the volume of fertilizers per unit of sown area, has been substantiated. It has been determined that the first indicator – the share of the fertilized area – determines the degree of fertilizer use and its distribution in the agricultural landscape, taking into account the efficiency of their use; the second indicator – the volume of fertilizers per unit of sown area – is aimed at determination of the intensity of fertilization following the size of the land area, which affects the preservation of soil fertility and environmental sustainability. It has been determined that the most effective application of mineral fertilizers for crops of fodder crops, organic fertilizers for crops of cereals and leguminous crops (without corn), and organic fertilizers for crops of fodder crops turned out to be the most effective. This, firstly, indicates a significant impact of mineral nutrition on the yield and quality of fodder crops, contributing to high productivity indicators in conditions of providing the necessary nutrients; secondly, it points out the importance of ecologically balanced use of organic resources to maintain the productivity of grain crops; thirdly, it indicates the high efficiency of organic resources in providing the necessary components for the growth of fodder crops and improving their quality. Crucially, the study integrates the concept of economic security by demonstrating that efficient fertilizer application is not solely an agronomic need but also a critical factor for economic sustainability. The share of the fertilized area serves as an indicator for the degree of efficient resource distribution. In contrast, fertilization intensity (fertilizer volume per unit sown area) directly influences soil fertility preservation and long-term environmental stability. Thus, integrating these parameters provides a quantitative basis for aligning agricultural practices with economic security and sustainable development goals. The results obtained can be used in the formulation of recommendations for optimizing the dosage and distribution of mineral and organic fertilizers depending on the specifics of the crops grown, improving agro-landscape management systems to ensure high productivity and preserving soil fertility, planning measures aimed at maintaining the ecological balance, which includes the rational use of agrochemical resources; developing state policies and programs focused on ecological planning and sustainable agricultural production. Furthermore, by integrating both parametric and non-parametric analytical methods, the study provides a robust framework that links optimal fertilizer application to enhanced economic security—demonstrating that efficient resource management and ecological balance are crucial for sustaining the long-term economic stability of agricultural enterprises. The results reveal optimal fertilizer application practices and offer a basis for devising recommendations to optimize fertilizer dosage and distribution, enhance agro-landscape management, and formulate state policies and programs focused on ecological planning and sustainable agricultural production. Overall, the findings underscore that improving the ecological environment is indispensable for achieving economic security in agriculture, thereby laying the groundwork for more effective and environmentally sustainable soil and fertilizer management strategies.
