PROPOSALS TO IMPROVE THE EFFICIENCY OF RECLAMED AGRICULTURE BY EXAMPLE OF ROSTOV REGION

Abstract

Purpose: substantiation of individual economic mechanisms that can increase the efficiency of reclamation agriculture, which can be considered as elements of the developed concept of creating agro-industrial territories of advanced development based on the use of reclamation technologies. Materials and methods. The methods of systemic, complex study, comparison, analysis and generalization of data were used. Results. As a result of the study, the necessity of data collection on the productivity of reclaimed lands and the efficiency of production on reclaimed lands was determined; such data collection should be carried out at the state level, since the collected data can be used to calculate the efficiency of using funds from Russian taxpayers; it was proposed to introduce rules for using reclaimed land, in the restoration of which a significant contribution was made from the budgets of various levels, which oblige, for example, the owners of irrigated lands to use crop cultivation technologies by irrigation; when restoring (construction, reconstruction, modernization) of reclaimed lands, apply the strategy of cluster development of the territory, which should take into account the subsequent technological processes that can create added value for agricultural products, and currently available innovative solutions; organization of a cooperative reclamation park as an organization involving direct consumers of irrigation water into the management of reclamation systems; introduction the same price for all members of the cooperative for water supply within the framework of the cooperative reclamation park, regardless of the location of their farms. Conclusions. The proposed mechanisms for the development of land reclamation are designed to contribute to the effective operation of hydro reclamation systems and to improve the well-being of workers on their territory.
