Abstract
The actuality of integration of Rio Convention provisions including Convention to Combat Desertification and land degradation into agrarian policy of Ukraine is analyzed. The current state of land resources using and factors of degradation processes of soil cover are characterized. It is shown their influence on agroecosystems productivity, risks of drought phenomena increasing and desertification processes. In the process of climate changes the torrential precipitation pattern and wind regime will increase, that under the conditions of sharp increasing of clean-cultivated crops areas, including corn, sunflower and soybean, will significantly reduce agrolandscapes resistance to drought, increase the risks of catastrophic manifestation of water-erosion processes and dust storms. All of this requires the development and implementation of more effective methods of land resources management, directed to the soil fertility reproduction and nature protection structure formation of agrolandscapes and land management systems. For the purpose of implementation measures concerning combat desertification, monitoring of degradation processes and informative-consultative support of landowners and land users it is proposed to create authoritative «State Service for land protection and soil fertility». It is shown that the current legal provision of land desertification and degradation in the present conditions is not a limiting factor, therefore requires improvement and further development, in particular concerning the protection and sustainable land use and soil fertility reproduction.
