ECOLOGICAL AND ECONOMIC MECHANISM FOR PROTECTION OF AGRICULTURAL LANDS FROM THE DEGRADATION PROCESSES

Abstract

The article is devoted to the research of problem aspects and the substantiation and deepening of theprobable ways of developing an ecological and economic mechanism for the protection of agricultural landfrom degradation processes in the context of balancing the interests of society and the environment. Itis established that the main tools of the state policy in the field of land relations regulation, which in theprocess of transformation affect the nature of production and property relations, have a significant influenceon the efficiency of agricultural land use, contributing to increasing the interests of economic actorsin efficient land management. It is determined that in order to prevent further degradation processes onagricultural lands and ensure their fertility preservation, it is necessary to strengthen state regulation ofenvironmental activity at all levels. First of all, due to the elements of institutional provision, it is necessaryto streamline the functions of management in the field of land relations regarding the use, protectionand protection of agricultural land from degradation processes.The conceptual provisions of the formation of the ecological and economic mechanism of protectionof agricultural land from degradation processes that take into account the legal, organizational, economicand social aspects of such formation are substantiated. The application of these provisions made it possibleto form a structural and logical scheme of the ecological and economic mechanism for the protection ofagricultural land from degradation processes, which involves the ordering of the set of elements, and therelationship of its main components, implemented in the form of tools, methods and technologies.
