Importance The reasonable use of agricultural land ensures not only the national food security, but also drives the sustainable development of agricultural areas, and creates conditions for their territorial integrity. The current level of national agriculture raises the need to adequately use land in the sector. Objectives The research monitors the extent to which the region's agricultural entities utilize agricultural land. Methods Using statistic and mathematical methods in economics, we evaluate trends in land availability and use indicators of the region's agricultural entities, the extent of land use in economic turnover, and substantiate models and format of reasonable land use. Results During the period in question, as a result of its use in agriculture, agricultural land is clearly seen to generate a higher effect, profit, gross and marketable products per land unit, growth in land productivity. However, there is a negative trend as more agricultural land is withdrawn out of economic turnover, increasing long-fallow land. Conclusions and Relevance Having analyzed the extent of agricultural land use by agricultural entities, we substantiate and propose a model and parameters for optimizing the land use, considering natural and economic conditions, and market requirements. As compared with the factual structure, they significantly enhance not only the extent of agricultural land use, but also the entity resource capabilities of the region.
