Abstract

In the context of the state policy of import substitution and the development of the export potential of the domestic agro-industrial complex, the importance of agricultural land is increasing. In Russia, it is possible to increase their area due to the involvement in the active economic turnover of unused agricultural land. The scientific study had analysed the quantity of agricultural land, the causes of crises in land management and the views of scientists on how to overcome the crisis, and an assessment of State action to return land to agricultural use. It was concluded that it is necessary to identify and implement the most effective forms and methods of state support, as well as strengthen regional financial support for agricultural producers involved in the involvement of unused land in agricultural turnover. An analysis of federal targeted programs to preserve agricultural land and increase its productivity has shown a high level of effectiveness. In order to make informed decisions on the involvement of land in turnover and to predict the improvement of its condition and use, the creation of a single digital platform combining disparate data of different departments on the state of land, their quality characteristics, legal status is important.
