LAND RESOURCE POTENTIAL OF THE TRANSCARPATHIAN REGION AS A FACTOR OF AGRICULTURAL MONOSYSTEM DEVELOPMENT

Abstract

The purpose of this work is to analyze the land resource potential of the Transcarpathian region and the main trends in the efficiency of its use. The study of land use optimization in the mountainous and foothills of the Carpathians is of particular importance. The specific climatic and morphological conditions of the region and the reorganization of land use exacerbate the problem of effective development of the agricultural sector and ecology of land reproduction. Method. General scientific methods, including analysis, scientific synthesis, analytical method, methods of comparison and generalization been used in the study. To study the current state of land and resource potential of the Transcarpathian region, information from the Main Department of the State Geocadastre in the Transcarpathian region and statistical materials of the Main Department of Statistics in the Transcarpathian region have been used. To achieve this goal, comparative geographical and statistical research methods have been used. Scientific novelty. The article highlights the trends, approaches and features of land use potential of the Transcarpathian region. Its spatial differentiation has been investigated, the component structure of the land fund of the Zakarpattia region has been analyzed and the intensity of the target use of the land resources of the region has been determined. A general assessment of the use of land resources of the Transcarpathian region has been done as a major factor in the development of agricultural monosystems and identified areas of its rational use. It has been determined that a characteristic feature of the land resources of the region is the low level of area use suitable for agricultural production, there is also a significant withdrawal of land for commercial and residential construction. Practical meaning. The results of this study can be used in the educational process of educational institutions; in the development of state and regional programs for the development of the agricultural sector of the national economy; for the preparation of new regulatory, program and methodological documents.
