Land consolidation considering natural afforestation
(Wydawnictwa AGH, 2022) Malaševsʹkij, Mikola Andrìjovič; Malaševsʹka, Olena Anatolìïvna
The article highlights the problem of natural agricultural-land afforestation with insufficient forest cover of the area. The article purports to substantiate land consolidation aimed at the rationalisation of agricultural and forest land management in such conditions. The authors identify the main approaches to the issue of natural agricultural land afforestation. The afforested areas of agricultural land are suggested for redesignation as a forest resource as a result of a swap and reallotment of land plots. As an example, consolidation of available land, in the conditions of natural afforestation, has been accomplished based on a number of land masses in Chernihiv Oblast', Ukraine. Resulting from the project implementation, better configuration and improved layout of agricultural land plots have been achieved, while the length and placement of country lanes have been optimized. The reforested agricultural areas within the specific land mass have been redesignated as a forest resource. The advantages and disadvantages of natural afforestation in land consolidation are identified in contrast to alternative approaches. The research findings can be used by territorial communities in the upgrade of land management practices, laying out and redesign of landscape parks and other nature conservation areas that include areas of business activity.

Patchwork of land ownership as barrier to development of rural areas
(Wydawnictwa AGH, 2017) Leń, Przemysław
A patchwork of land ownership is one of the factors that exert negative influence on both the organization and level of agricultural production. Excessive land fragmentation decreases the intensity of agricultural practices and increases production costs, thus leading to a continuous reduction in income. Over the years, fields in many areas of Poland have been divided into smaller and smaller parcels, which has resulted in a faulty land ownership structure (along with a mass exodus of people to towns as well as abroad. This article presents a detailed study of the land ownership structure of fourteen villages situated in the commune of Bialaczów (district of the Opoczno and Łódź voivodeships). The aim of the article is to determine the intensification of the phenomenon of dispersion of farmland in the villages of the examined municipality using chessboard type tables.
