The main problems of the nature and management of agricultural land under the conditions of modern soil management have been considered. Among the processes which cause soil structure decline on the Crimean peninsula, predominate: erosion, deflation, dehumification, secondary salinization and alkalinization of previously irrigated areas, overgrowing of agricultural land with shrubs and light forests, and some other processes leading to loss of soil fertility. Considerable attention has been paid to the problem of developing a system for soil resources monitoring. It has been noted that the main problems in the rational management of agricultural land in the region are: the imperfection of the regional monitoring system for the nature, conservation, management and protection of soil cover, and the lack of reliable and complete information on the nature of agricultural land.
