Increasing the efficiency of former agricultural land using

Abstract

Research an attempt was made to develop a system of economic measures aimed at minimizing damage from a reduction in the area of agricultural land. Lands excluded from agricultural use are divided into 2 groups. The first group includes areas overgrown with woody vegetation. Here it is planned to conduct forestry aimed at growing highly productive sustainable plantings for targeted purposes. The second group consisted of areas where undergrowth taxation indicators do not allow them to be transferred to lands covered with forest vegetation, it is planned to conduct farming taking into account effective soil fertility. It the potential soil fertility does not provide the yield of grain crops equal to the average for the region over the past 3-5 years, this site is recommended to be used to create forest plantations from fast-growing species. In particular, from Larix Sukaczewii Dyl. which at the age of 60 provides a stock of stem wood up to 740 m3/ha. Plots with soil fertility that allows to grow grain crops equal to and above the average for the region for the last 3-5 years are subjected to cleaning of woody vegetation and involvement in agricultural turnover. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
