Purpose. The purpose of the study is to analyse the regulatory framework for the legislative regulation of land relations in the Republic of Kazakhstan.
Methodology. Methods such as dogmatic, legal hermeneutics, logical analysis, deduction, induction were used.
Results. In the course of the study, the legal framework and the relevant application practice were examined. In this regard, problematic aspects, shortcomings, and contradictions of the contained norms were identified. The importance of reforming the agrarian economy was noted, which consists in the organisation of cooperatives and joint-stock enterprises without the involvement of the state. It was identified that this necessity lies in the importance of a system of broad cooperation for the effective implementation of activities on combined land plots and individual means of production, increasing the productivity of agriculture, and rational use of land resources. It was noted that it is necessary to ensure the full exercise by agrarian organisations, citizens, and foreign persons of the right to land, establish the terms of transactions that will exclude the possibility of their embezzlement, irrational use, speculation, transfer to other categories.
Conclusions. It was identified that it will be influential to create a special law and introduce norms into other acts, which will contain norms on a more detailed procedure for the targeted use of land, regulate monitoring and control, and features of limited turnover. The practical value of the results obtained lies in the development of recommendations, the implementation of which in law enforcement practice will provide an opportunity to increase the level of efficiency and quality of legislative regulation of land relations.
