The Regulatory and Legal Provision of Lands Monitoring

Abstract

The publication is aimed at researching the status of lands use, studying of normative-legal provision of lands monitoring, and developing a structural-logical model of the lands monitoring formation. The authors carried out a research on the status of lands use in Ukraine and identified the inefficient distribution of the existing lands fund. The results of analysis of legislation of a number of countries demonstrate that there are different restrictions in the lands use sphere. Studies of the current legislation of Ukraine prove that lands monitoring should be considered as a complex system. A structural-logical model of formation of lands monitoring is developed, which characterizes interaction of constituents, in particular dependence of efficiency of lands monitoring from organization of observation process and normative-legal provision. The monitoring of agricultural lands is proposed to be carried out twice a year: before sowing and after harvesting, to assess the degree of agricultural influence on their condition. Prospect for further research is to conduct an assessment of lands monitoring at the regional and national levels as a basis for the formation of lands observation directions and, accordingly, to improve its regulatory and legal provision.
