Abstract

The article analyzes the state of land reproduction as a factor of production. The author describes the lands of agriculture in terms of the main means of production. Considerable attention is paid to the analysis of fertility, which in the article is divided into natural, artificial, potential, efficient and economic. The author notes that nature itself forms the primary fertility of the land, which in the process of agricultural land use is reduced. The natural fertility of the land with its effective use makes it possible to organize the production of various products necessary for human life. Therefore, the expansion of agricultural land and a qualitative increase in their fertility are becoming an extremely important area of increasing the production of various types of agricultural products. It is also noted that along with soil fertility, it is necessary to assess the possibility of different land use. It is noted that in the last ten years there has been a steady trend of reduction of fallow lands with a slight decrease in agricultural land and almost unchanged area of arable land, we can say about the intensive use of land as a factor of production. One of the effective ways to increase fertility and as a consequence of improving the land as a factor of production is the introduction of mineral and organic fertilizers. Analysis of the dynamics of fertilizer application by agricultural enterprises over the past two decades shows a tendency to increase their volume as a whole and per 1 hectare. In general, the process of land reclamation as a factor of production is to develop measures to reduce soil acidity and salinity, land reclamation, application of organic and mineral fertilizers. The need for constant care to increase land fertility and its rational use is caused by the limited cultivated area of agricultural land used for agricultural production and to meet the growing needs of the population in food. As a result of the article, the author noted that the output per unit of arable land and agricultural land in recent years is growing. At the same time, land potential is declining. To this end, measures are needed to preserve land resources in agricultural production, prevent the redevelopment of agricultural land, increase the efficiency of their use, taking into account the prospect of their demand in the short and medium term.
