Cadastral valuation of agricultural land: regional practice

Abstract

The article discusses the methodology for determining the cadastral value of the permitted use first type agricultural land, used in the assessment in 2012 in the Samara region conditions. It was based on the income valuation method. The considered method made it possible to more accurately determine the cadastral value in comparison with the methods used earlier. The purpose of the study is to improve the methodology for the agricultural land cadastral valuation, taking into account the potential yield, soil varieties, plots individual technological properties and other factors. The average cost of one square meter of the use first type agricultural land, calculated according to the proposed methodology, is more than the average indicator determined in 2006 by 1.35 times (by 35%). The study results indicate that the method for determining the cadastral value of the use first type agricultural land works quite correctly. It effectively fulfills the most important task: a land plot with the worst fertility and having a minimum indicator of agroclimatic potential costs less than a land plot with a fertility higher level and the value of an agroclimatic potential indicator. In addition, the proposed methodology is based on data from the Federal State Statistics Service, which ensures their reliability. These factors determine the merits of the proposed methodology for the state agricultural land cadastral valuation.
