The distribution of the land fund according to its specific purpose is always one of the most important issues in the country. This article provides an analysis of the use of the Republican land fund for the last decade. Explanations of the concept of the land fund have been studied and detailed clarifications have been given for each of its categories. Surkhandarya region was selected as the main study area and the land fund of the last two years was analysed. During the work, statistical land-use data which provided from the state committee on land resources, geodesy, cartography and state cadastre of the Republic of Uzbekistan were used. Besides that, using the importance of geographic information system (GIS) and remote sensing techniques was reviewed for rational land use.
