Improving the efficiency of land use in the agricultural sector of Ukraine

Abstract

The growing interest of land users and owners in preserving and improving the fertility of agricultural land requires the inclusion in the state’s agricultural policy of a mechanism that provides economic incentives for the targeted use of land resources, and a careful and effective attitude to them. This is very important, due to the fact that the attraction of land resources to agricultural production in the presence of morally and technically outdated material base of agricultural enterprises, outdated agricultural technologies and ignoring environmental requirements causes erosion and a decrease in the fertility of these land resources. In our opinion, the amount of rent for the use of the land plot to a certain extent should take into account the resource potential of the tenant of the land plot. At the same time, the state agrarian policy should provide, in our opinion, the formation of favorable conditions for the possibility of increasing the agricultural enterprises of their resource potential. The state agrarian policy should create equal conditions for the realization of its resource potential by all agricultural enterprises, regardless of their form of ownership, as well as provide the necessary conditions for free competition and cooperation between agricultural enterprises. This will not only increase the resource potential of agricultural enterprises and increase the degree of fertility of agricultural land, but also optimize the amount of rent for land and land tax. At the same time, this will make the agricultural sector of the economy more attractive for potential private investors.
