The formation of an economically developed management system for the country's agro-industrial complex cannot be considered only from the point of view of a separate science. Land resources are the source of profit, which is involved in almost all sectors of society. Land preservation and improvement is required to ensure an economic security and competitiveness of each region of the Russian Federation). The dynamics of changes in the areas of Svetloyarsky district of the Volgograd region in the context of municipalities is analyzed. The actual deviation of the area of Privolzhsky rural settlement amounts to 2,3 % of the statistical data. The boundaries and areas of the used plots of arable land in the Raigorod settlement do not coincide with the data of the state cadastral registration, the discrepancy of only one land plot is 422,44 hectares. By implementing GIS-technologies, the data were obtained for 2355 arable land plots, whereof the irrigated land area amounts to 52138 hectares, instead of the potentially possible 19455 hectares, that exceeds the settlement's capabilities by 2,7 times according to the statistical data.

Abstract. In the regions of the Northwestern Federal District, as well as in the whole country, almost every year there is a reduction in the area of agricultural land and arable land. An important problem remains the non-use of agricultural land for their intended purpose. Identification and return to circulation of unused agricultural land, primarily arable land, is an important socio-economic task in almost all regions of the Northwestern Federal District. The mechanism of regulating land relations should be aimed not only at solving the problems of effective use of land resources to achieve the projected growth rates of agricultural production, but also at solving social problems of the territory, improving the quality of life of the rural population. Rational use of agricultural land implies that land use should not only be economically efficient for the agricultural producer, but also from the point of view of the neo-endogenous approach to promote the development of rural areas. The purpose of this study is taking into account the diversification of the rural economy, to explore the possibilities of involving unused agricultural land in the NWFD regions. Methods. The paper uses the following research methods: monographic, abstract-logical, economic-statistical. The reports of Rosstat, Rosreestr, the Ministry of Agriculture of the Russian Federation and information of regional level management bodies became the information and empirical base. The scientific novelty lies in the formulation and solution of the question of the need and possibility of involving unused agricultural land in the regions of the Northwestern Federal District in the turnover. Results. As a result of the study, the long-term negative consequences of the reduction of agricultural land, the problems of putting unused land into circulation were identified, measures were proposed to eliminate them in order to effectively use the land resources of rural territories and redistribution in the interests of efficient economic entities.

Agricultural production has influence on all areas of social activity. In the modern context of agro-industrial complex development, ensuring the economic security of the country directly depends on availability and suitability of the land, the degree of developed land. Land is a source of food, profits, economic independence of each region, the state of which depends on continuous monitoring and application of advanced technologies. The purpose of the work is to determine quantitative and qualitative state of arable land in the Volgograd region, the level of spread of degradation processes based on digital and remote sensing technologies, as well as the creation of graphic documentation necessary for making economic forecasts and plans. Availability and use of arable land in 33 municipal districts of the Volgograd region are unequal. The largest number of arable land is 5,4 % in Pallasovsky district, the smallest one is 1,3 % in Sredneakhtubinsky district. The differentiation of the region into five natural-agricultural and three land-assessment areas is caused by the necessity to register soil fertility during agricultural use of arable land, both in irrigated arable land and non-irrigated. According to the statistical records the irrigated arable land is used only in the amount of 20 %. 88 % of the region’s territory is subject to degradation processes. The land with the cadastral number 34:21:040003:67and an area of 137,2 hectares is characterized by a high degree of territory blurring, degradation of soil cover, which led to the loss of humus and removal to the upper layers of the soil of salt marshes. Remote sensing techniques allow obtaining reliable information and making social and economic forecasts in large areas in a short period of time.

The article is devoted to substantiating the prospects for increasing the marginal volumes of agricultural production for export in the next four years. Two scenarios of such production are considered: 1) expansion and 2) intensification of the use of land resources. As part of the development of the first scenario, an analysis of the distribution of unused agricultural land, including arable land, by federal districts was carried out. Also, based on the forecast of the introduction of additional annual volumes of acreage in the subjects of the Federation, the calculation of additional volumes of agricultural production, which can be expected in the next four years, was carried out. The analysis of data on the increase in the yield of export-oriented crops over the past five years has been carried out, in the framework of the second scenario, the calculation of the projected additional yield due to the intensification of agriculture is presented. The results of the study indicate that the intensification of agriculture will have the greatest impact on the growth of production and export of agricultural products in the near future.

Relevance. The effective use of agricultural land is a fundamental prerequisite for the successful implementation in the agro-industrial complex of the task of providing the population with food, and production with raw materials. At the same time, the issues of methodological support of the procedures for determining the integral indicator for assessing the use of agricultural land, established on the basis of a theoretically grounded unified approach based on quantitative methods, have been developed with insufficient completeness. Actualization of the issues of improving the theory and practice of assessing the effectiveness of the use of agricultural land in agricultural production is becoming one of the priority tasks of land reclamation science. The purpose of this work is to create a methodological basis for the process of assessing the use of agricultural land, which guarantees the comparability of the considered options for agroproduction in different natural and economic conditions.Methods. The research is based on the method of point assessments for indicators of agricultural land exploitation and the formation on their basis an integral criterion of land use efficiency. The proposed procedure includes: analysis of statistical data characterizing the dynamics of the values of indicators of used land resources, calculation of local assessments of the feasibility of their exploitation and assessment of the efficiency of land use according to a generalizing criterion represented by the sum of these local assessments.Results. A methodology has been developed and a method has been created for determining the efficiency of the use of agricultural land, based on a generalized integral assessment of the operation of agricultural land, which allows to identify bottlenecks in agricultural production and outline rational directions for the development of land use. The testing of the algorithm of the methodology and capabilities of the scale for the integral assessment of the efficiency of the use of land resources was carried out on the example of the Non-Black Earth Zone of the Russian Federation. Shown is an unsatisfactory (below the national average) contribution of agricultural production to the gross regional product. On the whole, positive dynamics of agricultural production in the Non-Black Earth Zone was established, which is achieved due to the development of animal husbandry, which is an effective factor in the formation of modern efficient agriculture of the territory, with the orientation of the crop production system on the raw material basis of feed production or the sector of the economy of the agro-industrial complex of the territory.

The paper presents the issues related to the green economy in the agricultural sector. In order to discuss it, an analysis of the subject literature was carried out and some selected statistical data describing the process of greening of agriculture were presented. The timeframe of the analysis covered the years 2010-2015. The GUS and Eurostat were the source of the used values. Studies have shown that almost all EU countries have increased the area of organic agricultural land in the surveyed period (except for Great Britain). In addition, the article presents the results of pilot studies conducted in the Lodz Region, aimed at diagnosing key barriers to the development of the green economy in rural areas. According to the research, the insufficient level of knowledge of farmers in this area is an important obstacle to building a green economy in rural areas.

The article presents an ecological and geographical analysis of the current state of land resources. The structure of land resources in UTC (United Territorial Community) is dominated by lands of agricultural and forestry use. They occupy the largest areas - 67072.3 hectares, 40004.8 hectares and their share in the structure of the land fund is 57.8%, 34.4%, respectively. The structure of agricultural lands of the district is dominated by agricultural lands, namely arable land. Its area is 67072.3 hectares (97.3%) The largest area of agricultural land is concentrated within the central part of the district. The largest area in the structure of agricultural land is occupied by arable land - 2500 - 3570.8 hectares. In the eastern and south-eastern parts of the district the share of arable land in the structure of agricultural lands is the highest (more than 70%). The share of pastures and hayfields in the structure of agricultural lands is 18.2% and 16.8%, respectively. The smallest share in the structure of lands of perennial plantations (1.6%). The largest areas of hayfields and pastures in the northern and northeastern part of the district, which is due to the natural features of the territory. Peculiarities of forestry use of land resources on UTC area are analyzed. Lands covered with forest vegetation there are unevenly distributed and are mainly subordinated to Brody Forestry. The largest areas of forestry land in the northern and southern parts of the district. Forests in the northern part are located within Male Polissya. Here in the area there is the highest forest cover (45 - 67%). Forest cover in the southern part of the district is 45 - 67%. The structure of lands occupied by forest vegetation is dominated by forest areas (96.0%), including covered with forest crops (71.0%) On the basis of the defined indicators the analysis of ecological stability of lands in UTC is carried out, also the anthropogenic loading on agricultural lands of the area is defined. This figure depends on the area of land of different species. Using the method of Shyshchenko P. H. (1982) we have determined the anthropogenic load on the agricultural lands of the district. This figure depends on the area of the land of different species. Within the district there are spatial differences in this indicator. The greatest anthropogenic load on agricultural land is in the central part of the district. Here the anthropogenic load is more than 6.6 (strongly converted). In the north-western part of the district this indicator is the lowest: 5.2-5.3. On the territory of other village councils agricultural lands are moderately transformed (6.1 - 6.5) The results of the study of the ecological condition of the land resources of the district are presented. The level of plowing, agricultural development of the district is analyzed. The central and southern part of the district is characterized by an unbalanced structure of land use, as there is a fairly high rate of plowing of agricultural land. The share of arable land here is more than 70% of the total area of agricultural land. The average value of this indicator is around 57.7%. The highest agricultural development is in the central part of the district (except for Brody town territorial community), and in the southern part (more than 60%). The maximum indicators of agricultural development are - 86.8-91%. The ecological condition of the land resources of the district was assessed and five groups with different levels of this indicator were identified. The ecological condition of land resources varies from optimal to catastrophic, depending on the ratio of arable land (R) and the share of ecological and stabilizing lands (ESL). Optimal and satisfactory ecological condition of land resources in the region on the area of 40.6%, critical - 25.7%, crisis - 20.4%, catastrophic - 13.3% Land resources are one of the most important resources of the district. In modern conditions, productive agricultural lands should be involved in intensive agricultural cultivation, and the rest should remain in a natural state, which will ensure ecological sustainability and balanced nature management. Key words: land resources, agricultural lands, agricultural development, ecological condition, ecological stability.


Over the past 30 years, our country has undergone many changes in the field of land legislation. Many of them were aimed at regulating land relations in the field of rural land use and were expressed in the adoption of various types of amendments and changes to laws and tightening fiscal measures for the resuscitation of unused land. However, such regulation has not led to an improvement in the use of agricultural land, and their quantitative and qualitative potential has deteriorated, which has led to inefficiency of budget funds allocated for the implementation of targeted programs in the field of agriculture. Rational use of land resources in agriculture is one of the most important tasks of land management. This article analyzes the use of land resources in the agro-industrial complex on the example of Central Federal district regions. The main indicators of production and economic activities of the regions of Central Federal district in agriculture, such as investments in agriculture, value of gross output of agriculture, yields of major agricultural crops, productivity of the main types of livestock, profitability of production agriculture, as well as indicators of the intensity of agricultural land using: the proportion of acreage in the total area of land, use of fertilizers, volume of agrochemical operations, availability of improved lands, involvement in economic turnover of previously unused land.. Weight coefficients were calculated for all indicators, groups of regions were formed for production and economic activity in the agro-industrial complex and the intensity of agricultural land use, cartograms were drawn up and proposals were made for planning land use.

Land resources are one of the most important resources in the environmental management system. This resource is necessary for almost all types of human activity: agriculture, construction, industry, mining, recreation, etc. According to the intended purpose in the Land Code of the Russian Federation, lands are divided into seven categories, differing from each other in the economic and legal regime of use. One of these categories is agricultural land. This category of land includes territories necessary for obtaining agricultural products or other purposes related to agriculture, as well as they are geographically distributed outside settlements. Lands of this category of designated purpose are characterized by a high level of anthropogenic impact (agro-preparatory processing of the territory, obtaining agricultural products, placement and grazing of livestock), which significantly affects the indicators of natural biodiversity downward. In order to study the state of land resources in the South of Russia, an analysis was made of the dynamics of changes in the area of agricultural land in the regions that are part of the Southern Federal District. The relevance of the work lies in the study of the current state of agricultural land in the South of Russia. The aim of the work was to study the dynamics of changes in the area of agricultural land in the period from 2009 to 2019. Statistical and analytical methods of geographical research were involved in the work, information was searched for on the state of lands of this category of lands in a certain period of time. In the course of the work, information was collected on the state of agricultural land in each of the regions that are part of the Southern Federal District and the features of changes in the area of land of this category were determined.
