ESSENTIAL AND CONTENT FEATURES OF THE EARTH-DEVICE AS A SOCIO-ECONOMIC CATEGORY
The authors studied the features of modern land management as a socio-economic category. The need for clarification of the concept, definitions, essence and content of new forms of land management - state, municipal and initiative. Based on the experience of pilot design in land management and land use, it is necessary, when zoning the territory, to establish the boundaries and areas of land quality classes: high-productive, productive, medium-productive and low-productive. This will establish the agricultural regulations, the procedure for the use of each plot of land, taking into account its quality, permitted use. Prior to the start of design work on the organization and arrangement of the land and property complex territory, it is proposed to carry out a systematic detailed assessment of the favorable use of the territory for agricultural production, taking into account factors: natural-climatic, soil-vegetable, sanitary-hygienic, energy and others. The proposed list of land management measures is carried out by state and (or) commercial organizations, as well as by citizens on the basis of state orders and conclusion of contracts (agreements) with the organization of centralized planning in the system of environmental safety of land use. Studies have established that one of the priority types of land-arrangement is proactive, which is carried out at the expense of citizens (individuals) and legal entities that own land or want to acquire it.
