Abstract: The unsustainable use of land during the reform period led to the fact that the total removal of nutrients became more than 6 times higher than their return with the introduction of organic and mineral fertilizers. The article examines the prerequisites for rational use of land, as well as the current state of land use and its effectiveness in agricultural organizations of the Ulyanovsk region. The authors assessed the intensification of the use of land resources, changes in the volume of fertilizers introduced for crops, their yields. Despite the increase in production of certain types of products, land use efficiency in the region is steadily declining. The efficiency of the use of agricultural land in the region is more due to the concentration of production, the size of production costs, the level of production intensity, the yield of grain and leguminous crops, to a lesser extent to the availability of basic funds and labour resources. Modern farmers find it difficult to maintain soil fertility and, moreover, increase the efficiency of using agricultural land without removing them from circulation, applying measures that are part of a scientifically sound agricultural system, and state support for the agricultural economy sector.
