Cycle of agricultural purposes land resources management

Land resources are used to achieve a wide range of purposes and it is necessary to plan and regulate all types of use in an integrated manner. An integrated approach should be applied at two levels, considering, on the one hand, environmental and socio-economic factors, including the impact of various economic and social factors on the environment and on the other - all components of the environment such as air, water, land, geological and natural resources.

Developing a model of this process, i.e., cycle or consecutive realization of methods and ways of formation and development of each particular land use has important value while shaping agricultural land. In control theory the closed chain of "decision making- the providing implementation - monitoring the progress of - feedback to adjust the solution or the implementation process" is called a cycle management, and its links form a cycle stages. However, there are more stages of the management cycle than functions because some features for its implementation require more than one step [1].

Cycle of control is more detailed than a simple list of management functions and more practical: it is easier to use in actual practice of management and governance. In our proximate cycle of management regarding agricultural land the environment determines the totality of aspects of the process management that are not directly included in it, but the change of characteristics which may affect the results. For this kind of aspects can be attributed:

- requirements to the administrative activity and its results, including criteria for evaluating the performance;

- existing rules (legal, ethical, environmental, etc.) and principles of activity;

- conditions, which can be divided into institutional (regulatory law, including the form and implementation of land rights), resources (human, material and technical or financial) and organizational, including informational component.

The closed chain "motivation - the goal - realization - the result - evaluation of effectiveness - adjustment" directly forms the structure of management cycle of agricultural land, in which:

- the need is caused by necessity for sustainable development of natural economic land system that is specified in the grounds, due to the need to ensure efficient use and optimize the structure of land resources, creating an enabling institutional and economic conditions for the economic entities of different forms of ownership, ensuring the protection and restoration of soil cover and sustainable socio-economic development of rural areas;

- objective including the conditions, requirements, standards and guidelines specifies management tasks in terms of performance (criteria) of the desired environmental and economic result of administrative activity;

- realization involves performing a coherent set of specific actions and technologies, which defines the conditions, forms, methods and means of achieving the management objectives;

- this result characterizes achieved in the management process level of solving environmental and economic tasks in relation to a specific area and time period;

- efficiency score shows the degree of achievement of the desired result of environmental and economic characteristics;

- adjustment is intended to clarify and, if necessary, make changes to the organizational and economic conditions for the functioning of business entities, the resource support in the protection and reproduction of soil cover and sustainable socio-economic development of rural areas.

Notable among structural components of management cycle takes self-regulation, which defines the conditions and possibilities. Equally important conditions to ensure the effectiveness of administrative activity are the form and implementation of land rights. Land ownership is a basis for the other relations that arise in the process of expanded agriculture reproduction, including a system of redistribution of ownership rights to the means and results of production and distribution. In terms of land management, property relations are quite complex and controversial as it characterizes the external conditions – restrictions on the possession, use and disposal of land. Therefore, the activities of the development of land relations in the agricultural sector, which is a set of procedures and tools for management decision making and considered as an ecological-economic mechanism of the land resources management should take into account and take advantage of existing forms and realization of land property rights.
