Abstract

The index evaluation results of agroresource potential of agricultural organizations of Lunenetsk district are provided in the article. High level of mineral and organic fertilization (and corresponding index) is noticed in agricultural industrial complex «Lunenetsky». Expense index on the maintenance of main facilities in the crop production ranges from 0.39 in agricultural industrial complex «Ozernitsa» to 2.51 in agricultural industrial complex «Lunenetsky». The degree of influence of each kind of agroresources on the productivity of agricultural lands, expressed in centners of fodder units, gained from 1 hectare, is estimated with the help of multiple correlation­regressive analysis. The most significant agroresources are determined. 4 groups of agricultural organizations of Lunenetsk district are identified according to intensity level and level of effective use of agricultural lands. They are with low intensity and low effectiveness, low intensity and high effectiveness, high intensity and low effectiveness, high intensity and high effectiveness. Half of them is established to have low intensity, but high effectiveness of the agricultural land use. Results of the research allow to differentiate activities for improvement of the agrarian land use.
