Abstract

This study examines the ways of agroecological zoning of agricultural lands in Northern Kazakhstan and their ecological and economic optimization. The scientific work was carried out within the framework of the BR24993222 program and was based on the concept of sustainable development of the territory. The study used Sentinel-2 satellite images, NDVI (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index) and PLI (Prairie Landscape Inventory) indexes, GIS (geographic information system) technologies and cartographic analysis methods.

Changes in the structure of arable lands, climatic factors, and land degradation (especially a decrease in humus) are analyzed and trends in the redistribution of agricultural land. There is a growing importance of oilseeds, which is associated with their climatic inclinations and export potential.

It is shown that for effective planning of agricultural space it is necessary to comprehensively take into account natural, economic and social factors. The results of the study make it possible to develop practical recommendations aimed at ensuring the spatial organization of agricultural landscapes and the sustainability of the agricultural sector.
