Analysis and evaluation of the bioclimatic productivity of agricultural land in Samara region

Abstract

The article substantiates the need to take into account the climatic factor in the structure of the natural agro-potential of the territory and the assessment of agricultural land with the same degree of spatial detail as the soil cover. The method for estimating the standard yield based on a combination of a statistical forecast of production and simulation modeling of MPY (maximum possible yield) for grain crops has been implemented in this work. The paper also contains land appraisal and mesoclimatic zoning of the territory and considers the issues of using the results for assessing the suitability and cost of land, solving problems of land use and land administration.
