The climatic, soil, ecological and economic features of the natural landscapes in the Krasnodar Krai were analyzed. The land structure of cultivated land in Western Ciscaucasia was given; the current state of soils in the Krasnodar Krai was analyzed. The changes in the content of humus in the arable layer over the century were considered. The qualitative state of agricultural lands, such as the susceptibility to erosion, the content of humus, and indicators of the nutrients balance in the soil was shown. A conclusion the existing zonal agriculture systems do not use the landscape diversity of the region was drawn. The need for switching to the adaptive landscape system of agriculture was substantiated. Using the GIS technologies, the boundaries of the natural landscapes in the Krasnodar Krai and the areas of agricultural land was determined by types and the degree of the manifestation of erosion processes. An eco-economic assessment of the field crop rotations adapted to the natural landscape by cultivated lands was made.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
