Land degradation is one of the most pressing problems ensuring sustainable use of land. In order to provide a clear understanding of land degradation and its risks, as well as to implement unified measures for prevention of land degradation in Latvia, the Land Management Law came into force in 2015. It individually defines the concepts of land and soil degradation, thus separating them from each other, as well as clarifying the term “degraded territory”. However, despite these solutions in the regulatory framework of the land degradation, till now criteria for identifying land degradation have not been developed and approved, therefore their determination is very subjective and not comparable between municipalities and at the state level. The aim of the article is to develop and approbation degradation criteria for assessing land degradation in particular territory. In the article, based on the author's previous studies on the classification of land degradation, characterised one type of land degradation - the abandoned agricultural and forestry activity territory, as well as proposed subdivision of criteria classification into three levels – low, medium and high. As result of the study, it was concluded that the classification of degraded territories into three degradation levels is justified for the purpose of more objective identification and evaluation of land degradation.

With the adoption of the Tax Code of Ukraine, the harmonization of accounting and tax accounting was carried out. However, taking into account the interests of the business community in streamlining relations and building mutual responsibility, the state is constantly faced with the question of preventing the possibility of tax evasion, optimization and narrowing of the tax base. Due to possible discrepancies between the criteria for recognizing income and expenses in accounting and tax law, there are tax differences. Tax differences are related to different approaches to determining income in accounting and tax accounting. They arise as a result of business transactions for which there are different assessments and recognition criteria in accounting and tax law. Every year the number of differences that arise in determining the pre-tax financial result increases and the regulatory framework changes, which makes adjustments to reflect the differences in the financial statements of enterprises. The article analyzes the regulatory framework governing the accounting of tax differences in Ukraine. The author considers the main documents, which contain information about the nature of tax differences and methods of accounting. The main problem is the imperfection of regulations approved at the state level and the need to refine the methodology for reflecting in the accounting and financial reporting of tax differences. The article discloses the rules that reflect the tax differences in the financial statements. The changes that took place during the years of Ukraine’s independence in terms of reflecting differences in accounting are analyzed and the dynamics of changes in legislation is traced. The positive and negative moments of changes concerning the accounting and reflection in the reporting of differences before the taxation are allocated. The problematic issues of reflection in the accounting and financial reporting of tax differences that need to be addressed are highlighted. The article considers the main prospects of accounting for tax differences in Ukraine, accounting problems and methods of solving them.

Dactylorhiza fuchsii (Druce) Soó is a terrestrial orchid belonging to the family Orchidaceae and listed in the Red Book of Kazakhstan, the Baltic region, and the most regions of Russia. D. fuchsii is an interesting object for research in many countries of the world and the study of its biological features and coenotic significance, as well as its distribution and conservation in nature is still relevant today. The article analyzes the most significant biological and coenotic features of D. fuchsii: distribution of the species; features of the structure and dynamics of coenopopulations in different regions; ontogeny; cultivation in Botanical gardens; features of reproduction, including using the method of tissue culture, etc. It reflects the main places of growth in Kazakhstan and the principles of conservation in connection with the classification of the species as rare, subject to protection at the state level. Indicators of D. fuchsii participation in plant communities have been identified on the example of forests of the State National Natural Park “Burabay” (Northern Kazakhstan).

Maritime transport and sustainable development require a recognizable global approach. The state, as the dominant structure in the world, enables the realization of sustainable maritime transport aims through its instruments. Therefore, it is very significant to consider the national maritime policies because the effective implementation of the global policy is impossible without considering the adequate mechanisms at the state level. The adopted Montenegrin strategic documents impact the institutional framework set-up of the Blue Economy (BE) sectors and potentials for ecologically sustainable maritime transport. Although there are no practical directions for the sustainable use of sea resources, Montenegro is affirmatively oriented to the BE concept. Knowing that Montenegro is in the process of the pre-accessing EU phase, it is of importance to be on the right road to creating a national maritime transport policy including environmental practices, to become part of the strategic implementation of the BE. The paper provides recommendations that can serve for the successful follow-up of the BE activities in Montenegro and the wider area.

Scientific approaches to the role of regime-forming objects in the formation of restrictions on land use, which have been studied by scientists in land management, economic and legal areas, are considered. The approaches to the formation of the classifier of regime-forming objects by certain relevant groups in relation to the zones with the limited regime of land use and the territories that are formed around them are analyzed. A group of territories with limited land use regime by functional zone is considered on the example of the territory of water bodies. An analysis of the legislative provision on the list of restrictions on land use and the list of territorial zones of water bodies. The comparison of the existing list of restrictions on land use (land plots) and the formed division of regime-forming objects in accordance with the legislation of levels on the example of the territory of water bodies is given. It is established that the resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine №1051 "On approval of the Procedure for maintaining the State Land Cadastre" lacks a classification of regime-forming objects that form restrictions on land use, a list of restrictions on land use and land, as well as a list of territorial zones of the State Land Cadastre) do not contain the entire list of possible regime-forming objects in land use and needs to be clarified and supplemented.

The given paper is dedicated to the determination of the possible ways to solve the problems of extractive industries and power engineering  spatial development in combination with sustainable use and protection of lands, as well as ensuring the institutionalization of various environmental, legal and economic aspects. Specific ways of improving servitude relations are determined by authors. Additionally, institutionalism is considered to be the methodological basis for the development of land relations at the state level. The current norms of land legislation in many cases do not take into account the spatial problems and production specificity with regard to the location of pipeline, energy infrastructure, oil and gas wells and production facilities associated with their operation  Temporary ways of solving issues related to the acquisition of the right of land for the needs of oil and gas industry by concluding land servitude agreements have been found.  To solve this problem and to ensure timely implementation of the state program for the extraction of natural gas and oil  is necessary to supplement the Land Code of Ukraine with a new Article 1001 on the specifics of establishing land servitudes for the placement of pipeline transport facilities, oil and gas wells.
