Abstract

Agricultural and forest lands near settlements are main reserve for expansion of urban areas. Thus, among 148.5 thousand hectares of lands added to Moscow city territory in 2012, 72.2 thousand hectares or 48% were occupied by agricultural and forest lands. Urban areas are characterized by excessively high intensity of land use, land depletion, deterioration in environmental quality and decline in sustainability of urban development. The paper presents the results of analysis of urban land use planning system in the interests of sustainable development of urban territories. The object of the study is the land that is part of Moscow, which is planned to be developed in the coming decades. The authors propose an algorithm for urban development of such areas, which takes into account the quality of land. Design calculations for areas under development were carried out for Shchapovskoye settlement in New Moscow as an example. In addition, the paper covers aspects of land management when developing agricultural land within cities. The authors developed a classification of agricultural land according to a criterion of “suitability for urban development”. The suggested classification has been applied to achieve the objectives of planning urban land use development, determining the order of construction on agricultural lands within the system of sustainable urban development management.

Highlights

A large number of researchers are engaged in optimization of urban land use amid urbanization of territories in countries such as China [8, 9, 13], Russia [1,2,3,4, 14,15,16, 21-22], the USA [5], Japan [10], South Korea [17], etc
Solutions to improve principles and methods of managing land use in a large city basing on evaluation by “suitability for urban development” of agricultural lands joined to the city remain unexplored, as well as the establishment of the order of their allocation for urban areas integrated development
Developing methods for assessing agricultural lands within a large city which enable their classification according to the criterion “suitability for urban development”, and a scale of indicators for determining the sequence of allocation of these lands for urban development, so that the most fertile land is preserved in its natural condition for agricultural production;

Summary

Introduction

A large number of researchers are engaged in optimization of urban land use amid urbanization of territories in countries such as China [8, 9, 13], Russia [1,2,3,4, 14,15,16, 21-22], the USA [5], Japan [10], South Korea [17], etc. These productive lands, as the most prevailing in terms of area and usually located near settlements, are the main reserve for expansion of urban territories. This trend is observed in many countries [6,7, 11,12]
