“…2 Effects of war on agricultural production can rely on lower resolution imagery as illustrated by studies such as Alix-Garcia et al (2013) for Darfur and a number of studies covering areas of the former Soviet Union including Ukraine to assess 1 As exposure to violence often leads the poorest to revert to subsistence as in Colombia (Arias et al 2019), levels of food consumption may not decline linearly with conflict exposure as shown in Afghanistan (D'Souza & Jolliffe 2013). This has led to use of dietary diversity as a more appropriate measure of conflict impact there (D'Souza & Jolliffe 2014), in Nigeria (George et al 2020) determinants of land use-including land abandonment (Meyfroidt et al 2016), grazing intensity (Dara et al 2020), and crop cultivation (Munteanu et al 2017)-over rathe r long time periods (Matasov et al 2019).…”

“…The high agroecological potential of the region and the long-term productivity of agricultural crops indicate that the Belgorod Oblast plays a significant role in ensuring the food security of the country. Over the past 70 years, the structure of land has undergone significant transformations, which are due to changes in the socio-economic vector of land use [23]. indicate that the Belgorod Oblast plays a significant role in ensuring the food security of the country.…”

The problem of choosing the type of land use is now more relevant than ever. Against the backdrop of the growth of urbanized territories, the challenge is to preserve cropland, maintain the quality of soil resources, and find a balance between competing land uses. Forecasting and modeling changes in the area of cropland is a sought-after area of research against the backdrop of a growing shortage of fertile land and a threat to food security. In this study, on the example of one of the agriculturally most developed administrative regions of Russia (Belgorod Oblast), an approach to statistical modeling of agricultural land areas over the past 30 years is shown. Two approaches were used: statistical modeling of the dynamics of the total area of the study region’s cropland depending on the balance of other types of land and spatial interaction modeling of cropland in a key area. For the study region, administrative districts with positive and negative cropland dynamics were identified; the main types of land were revealed, due to which cropland is withdrawn, and a regression balance model was developed. It was revealed that the implementation of the planned regional programs to expand the development and conservation of meadow lands will reduce cropland by 3.07% or 83.2 thousand ha. On the example of one of the administrative districts with high rates of urbanization, the probability of cropland transformation into other types of land was estimated and a predictive spatial model of land use was developed. According to the forecast, about 6.2 thousand ha of cropland will turn into residential development land, and 2/3 of their area will be concentrated within 6 km from the borders of the regional capital city (Belgorod). The presented approach to forecasting the area of cropland and the threats of its reduction due to the need to replace other types of land is relevant for all agricultural regions and countries with developing urbanization processes.
