Land Use Optimization

The article presents modern literature data on the need to improve the development of agricultural lands, taking into account the current state of agriculture. Paying attention to this issue requires special attention, as it has acquired not only theoretical but also practical significance. Intensification of negative tendencies of anthropogenic influence on edaphotope lead to a number of ecological crises of global character. We analyzed the state of land use of Lviv region and reflected the main problems of land use optimization. The dynamics of changes that took place in the structure of the land fund by types of lands is shown. An extremely important component of sustainable development of society is the quality of life provided by the continuous development of environmental innovations. The destruction of the structure of the edaphotope of the region causes the emergence and development of environmental crises and catastrophes. Preservation of high potential and quality functioning of edaphos requires changes to the constant effective maintenance of balance, which should be based on the principles of sustainable harmonious development and rationalization of land resources. In terms of regions of aridity coefficients according to research, it can be argued that natural and climatic conditions have a direct impact on the efficiency of agricultural production. Such results require a review of technologies, their modernization and the development of recommendations for their adaptation. Resource-saving land use of new territorial entities in the post-reform period includes two factors – economic and environmental. For proper organization and optimization of land holdings, it is advisable to create agro-landscapes with a clearly planned structure, which should take into account the ratio of functional-territorial orientation, economic assessment and environmental safety. This means that the main and main goal of harmonious targeted use should take into account a number of indicators of the land use system, which requires special attention to agroecosystems in the interdependent close development of environmental and economic aspects. No less important is the environmental factor of land use, as further ignoring it can create economic collapse. In this regard, the most important requirement of the time is the development, improvement and widespread implementation of resource- and energy-saving, environmentally friendly farming systems. Ecological tolerance of certain territories of land resources should be laid down in the process of designing land management developments, paying special attention to the properties of landscape ecosystems, taking into account adjacent land plots. In particular, in order to preserve the balance of agricultural landscapes, it is necessary to implement a set of preventive measures.

The article is devoted to the formation of the institutional environment of ecologically safe agricultural land use through the model of harmonization of ecological and economic interests of the subjects of agricultural land use. The structure of agricultural land use is based on criteria, the content of which represents both economic and environmental interests of society. For example, the landowner (land user) is interested in converting his land into the most economically attractive - arable land, which reflects his private economic interests, and on the other - society is interested in maintaining the optimal state of agricultural landscapes, which in turn provides the optimal ratio of destabilizing, stabilizing and stabilizing reflecting the public environmental interests [7]. Usually such differentiation of interests of subjects of agrarian land use causes situations of impossibility to agree them voluntarily. Therefore, there is an urgent problem in effective regulatory policy in the field of land use, in particular through the formation of the institutional environment of environmentally friendly agricultural land use through the model of harmonization of environmental and economic interests of agricultural land users. In the article, it is clarified that the institutional model of harmonization of ecological and economic interests of subjects of agrarian land use provides for the introduction of tools to eliminate the conflict of ecological and economic interests, which includes a number of tools, levers and techniques, in particular: -adaptation paradigm; formation of ecological consciousness of land users, ecological morality and ethics; development of the organizational and economic mechanism of formation of ecologically safe agrarian land tenures and land uses optimum through a combination of market and state levers of influence; regulatory and legal support of ecological safety of agricultural land use; optimization of the organizational structure of land use management.

Studies on land use structural optimization can support the sustainability of land resources. The Taipusi Banner lies in the arid and semiarid area of northern China, with rapid economic development and a vulnerable ecological condition. Taking the Taipusi Banner as a research case, we adopted a land use map and statistical data, and employed the ecosystem process model to establish five scenarios, including an economically optimal scenario, an ecologically optimal scenario, a comprehensively optimal scenario, a status quo, and a projected scenario. Based on multi-objective linear programming, the land use demand was optimized; then, the CLUE-S model and adaptability evaluation were adopted to establish spatial patterns. The ecological and economic benefits were then analyzed and policy suggestions are provided. The main results include the following: (1) The optimization outputs of various scenarios show that under optimization, cropland and forestland increased by 9.13% and 18.9%, respectively, and grassland decreased by 9.81%. (2) The land use optimization shows that comprehensive optimization aimed at achieving comprehensive benefits, ecological benefits, and economic benefits increased these benefits by 3.89%, 2.1%, and 6.2%, respectively. Compared with other scenarios, focusing on the comprehensive benefits of land use can result in the greatest increase in benefits to improve sustainability land resources. Land use optimization must consider not only the optimization of both the quantity and configuration but also the dimensions of both ecology and the economy. Land use should be based on a land suitability evaluation and optimization of the land use spatial configuration to update ineffective land uses and should gradually adjust both the ecological and engineering measures.

The land district of Otago, comprising the counties of Waitaki, Waihemo, Waikouaiti, Taieri, Peninsula, Bruce, Clutha, Tuapeka, Lake, Vincent, and Maniototo, contains the greatest variations in climatic conditions, topography, and soil types. Consequently, a detailed description of. the farming systems practised in each of the many categories into which land use may be subdivided is beyond the scope of this paper, which will deal broadly with a description of farming in the principal areas of the region. The fascinating story of settlement, which commenced over 100 years ago, has been published in several books freely available to all interested and some of the results from earlier practices, now recognised to be damaging to soil fertility and stability, will be discussed in a later section. The total acreage in occupation is over 8 million and this extends from the intensively farmed alluvial plains at sea level to the summer grazed natural grasslands at altitudes of over 5,000 ft.

Main Factors

Purpose. The aim of the article is to analyse the components of the process of improvement of land management in Ukraine. Methodology of research. The methodological basis of the study is the dialectical method of scientific knowledge. General scientific and special methods of research are used in the article, namely: abstract and logical, deductive and generalization. The abstract and logical method is applied in outlining the main factors that influence the process of improvement of land management in Ukraine. The areas that help increase the efficiency of agricultural production and environmental restoration are analysed with the help of deductive method. The factors that influence the process of introduction of innovative resource-saving technologies in agriculture, reproduce soil fertility, provide land protection and improve the environmental state of the environment are determined on the basis of generalization of scientific sources devoted to the problem of land use. Findings. It is established that land use implies balancing of economic, environmental and social factors taking into account the properties of land resources. It is shown that associations of municipalities, national development agencies, chambers of commerce, technopolis and other institutions are involved in the process of territorial development in the EU countries. Given the benefits of organic farming, it is advisable to introduce it into agricultural production. This will have a positive result if a mechanism of state influence on organic production processes is introduced. It is substantiated that it is necessary to economically encourage landowners and land users for successful land use who will bring domestic farmers closer to balanced and highly productive agricultural production. Originality. For the first time, it is proposed to expand the land market and redistribute land resources by functional purpose and sectoral features, which, unlike the existing one, has the potential to influence balanced and high-yield agricultural production. There has been further development of the use of economic instruments of regulation of land relations, which will contribute to the financial responsibility of land users, self-sufficiency of regions and bring domestic agrarians closer to balanced and highly productive agricultural production. The implementation of a number of elements of market infrastructure has been improved, which will allow the involvement of land resources in economic activity. Practical value. The obtained results of the study made it possible to outline the main factors that influence the process of improvement of land management in Ukraine and can be used by business entities. Key words: land management; production; factors of land management; economy; realization; activity; natural resources; resource-saving technologies.

The Relationship

Limited land resources are used to meet the growing economic, social, and ecological needs of people in China. Food, energy, and water (F-E-W) are the basic resources for supporting human survival and the transformation of different land uses. This paper tries to construct a theoretical framework of land use and the F-E-W nexus and uses system dynamics to simulate the optimal allocation of land use in Shizuishan City, China, by comparing different scenarios that have different parameters related to F-E-W. The final results follow: (1) according to the relationship between land use and the F-E-W nexus, a three-layer nested theoretical framework is constructed. (2) Future land use under different scenarios differs. Under the scenarios of a less dependence on coal energy, a higher utilization efficiency of energy and agricultural water resources, and a lower grain self-sufficiency rate, there are less crop and urban lands but more ecological land. However, generally speaking, crop and rural construction lands tend to decrease, while urban and ecological lands tend to increase. (3) Combined with different objectives, the rapid transformation scenario is considered a better option in which to achieve a balance among the economy, society, and ecology. This paper also discusses the application of land use optimization in the delineation of three control lines in territory-space planning in China.

Environmental planning and management serve to develop and implement special measures aimed at the rational use of natural resources, including the rational land use. Any further improvement of the production efficiency as well as of the material and cultural living standards is subject to the rational, economical use of land resources aiming to ensure balance in the natural environment. Land resources constitute a critical factor in the production and economic development of the country. State economic potential is strongly dependent on the availability and efficiency of environmental use and protection. For its part, the rational and effective land use requires a unified state register of immovable property. With due consideration of the current land use challenges and in order to improve the land use efficiency and regulating procedure, the appropriate legal and regulatory acts have been adopted both at the federal and local level in the Russian Federation. The principles of the rational land use planning are subject to current environmental safety requirements and management mechanism.

This article discusses the methodical approach to definition of the influence of the process of intensification of social production on the economic assessment of natural resources. At the same time when assessing the impact are taken into account as different directions of intensification, as well as the process of intensification of production in general. The purpose of the research is an economic assessment of the intensive nature of production in the conditions of the development of the natural environment. The object of the research is the process of economic evaluation of the intensive nature of production in the conditions of the development of the natural environment. The methods used of the research are scientific, logical, and retrospective. The hypothesis of the research is the emergence of a system of contradictory relations both between different types of intensive use of resources, and between them and the process of environmental production. The statement of basic materials. The influence of each type of intensification on the economic evaluation of natural resources is considered. Intensification of cumulative social labor has two main directions: the intensification of living labor (in its quantitative and qualitative forms) and past work, which is substantiated in the means of production (also in two forms). Intensification of means of production coincides with the intensification of social labor. The originality and practical significance of the research. The peculiarity of the article is to assess the intensification of production specifically for the natural environment of the regions of North Russia. Conclusions of the research. It is necessary to distinguish the environmental consequences of the process of intensifying production, depending on its orientation on various objects, that is, the effects of labor, fund and resource-saving on-lines intensification.

This paper explores the dynamics of land use in Madurai district as it possesses the largest other fallow lands (48.28 per cent). Time series data on nine-fold classification for the study district of Tamil Nadu was collected from Season and Crop Reports of Tamil Nadu. The collected data from 1997-98 to 2017-18 were analysed using Compound Growth Rate, Cuddy Della Instability Index. Retention probability of land use pattern and forecasting was done using Markov Chain Analysis. The results revealed an increasing trend of Common Property Land Resources (CPLRs) due to declining nature of net sown area (-2.24 per cent per annum) and low retention capacity of current fallows. The erratic distribution of rainfall and water stress due to dry climatic conditions extends the current fallows into other fallow lands (4.54 per cent per annum). The predicted land use changes have also reflected the threatening scenario of increasing nature of current fallows and other fallow lands and declining nature of net sown area for the next decade. The study found Socio economic developments like Population growth and urbanization, and climatic conditions are drivers of change in land use pattern in Madurai district. Hence, the study suggest the promotion of less water intensive crops, water harvesting technologies like farm ponds and to give awareness about water saving technologies like micro irrigation to increase the productivity and profitability of agricultural lands where water and labour resources are scarce. Afforestation can be done in barren lands. Institutional arrangements should focus on framing Community User Group and women cooperatives to manage and effective utilisation of the increasing CPLRs in a better manner to ensure rainwater harvesting, fodder and fuel security, providing livelihood to rural poor as well as to sustain ecological balance.
