Interpretive Summary: In recent years, of Agrophysics has developed as scientific divisions. This publication is a review the new scientific divisions that emerged in agrophysics in the last 10-15 years. Among them are the following: 1) application of Geographic Information Systems, 2) development and application of fuzzy multi attributive comparison of alternatives, 3) application of Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS), 4) development and application of fuzzy indicator modeling, 5) agrophysical and physic-technical bases of plant breeding (development of breeding phytotron), and 6) development, testing and application of materials based on humic acids for improving soil fertility and solving environmental problems.

Technical Abstract: This work is devoted to review the new scientific divisions that emerged in agrophysics in the last 10-15 years. Among them are the following: 1) application of Geographic Information Systems, 2) development and application of fuzzy multi attributive comparison of alternatives, 3) application of Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS), 4) development and application of fuzzy indicator modeling, 5) agrophysical and physic-technical bases of plant breeding (development of breeding phytotron), and 6) development, testing and application of materials based on humic acids for improving soil fertility and solving environmental problems. In recent years, the development of these scientific divisions has been associated with the activities of the European Agrophysical Institute and, in particular, with the creation (in 2013) of the European Agrophysical Journal (EAJ). It should be noted that Google-based Impact Factor of EAJ for 2015 was equal 2.23 and for 2016 - 2.00. Many articles written in the framework of these divisions have been published in EAJ.
