Abstract
On the basis of a comparison of ideas about surplus utility and land rent and the results of new research, the inconsistency of conclusions about the exclusivity of their labor nature is shown. It is proved that the identification of the essence of both economic categories in the 19th and 20th century was hindered by the theory of mineral nutrition of plants. Following the theory led to the practice of applying mineral fertilizers, reduced to the use of additional capital in agriculture, and delayed the development of political economy due to the erroneous idea of the utility produced by the economic organism as a substance determined by human labor. In turn, the adoption of the theory of mineral nutrition as a natural science theory, led to a delay in identifying the nature of natural soil fertility. It is shown that the delay in overcoming the identified misconceptions about plant nutrition and the main categories of political economy leads to an increase in the crisis in the world economy.
