Abstract

Since 2022, the state register of agricultural lands has been maintained in our country. The article discusses the reasons for this decision, the key features of this register, the possibilities of interaction with other data sources on these lands, as well as the pace of formation of data systems on them at the regional level. At the same time, it was noted that the full use of the potential of such a register depends on the pace of digitalization of agricultural land management and land planning. The authors also note that measures to improve work with data on agricultural lands logically fit into the general practice of recent years, when the state (state agencies) started implementing a new database management function. At the same time, a qite obvious problem was identified, differences in the rates of the corresponding regional system development and saturation of the federal register with their data, its risk was assessed and experience in solving a similar problem of the 1990s was given.
