ESTABLISHING THE TYPE OF LAND USE SUSTAINABILITY TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THE CHANGES IN THE PRODUCTION POTENTIAL OF THE LAND

Abstract

The production potential of land resources allows agricultural producers to develop economic indicators, increasing profits. When using land, it is necessary to take into account its heterogeneity, develop project proposals and implement them to ensure rationalization and optimization, and solve local problems.
The balance between natural potential and anthropogenic impact will allow for the full use of land resources. One of the characteristics confirming the rational use of land is the type of sustainability of land use. This indicator gives an idea of ​​the state of management in terms of its stability, the ability to maintain its strength. The scientific article presents a calculation based on the methodology of the authors Yu. M. Rogatnev and O. N. Dolmatova, which is aimed at establishing the type of sustainability taking into account the qualitative and quantitative indicators of the agricultural producer: maintaining the level of yield, variability of the area of ​​arable land used, location and configuration of fields, as well as minimization of rented areas. The tendency of each coefficient to one reflects how each agricultural producer manages to maintain stability. One of the performance indicators characterizing a rational approach to land resources on the way to profit is the profitability of production and the efficiency of each field. The heterogeneity of lands leads to different levels of fertility, which provide the basis for crop yields and technological properties that affect the amount of costs. Taking into account natural and physical characteristics determines rationalization and optimization. The introduction of missing minerals and substances improves the quality of the soil, which increases the gross product. Improving technological properties makes it possible to minimize production costs.
