Abstract:
The mycological conditions on study plots established in forests growing on former agricultural farm lands were studied. In young spruce stand (8–10 years) reduced and unstable spectrum of macromycetes was found. After approximately 50 years of forest growth the situation became stable and spectrum of macromycetes together with development of mycorrhizal status were similar to a situation found in stands on forest soils. Slightly increased occurrence of saproparasitic species of fungi (e.g. <I>Heterobasidion annosum</I> at others) was observed in older growths.

Abstract:
The results of research on the productivity of stands formed on agricultural land are presented. It is noted that at present the process of overgrowing with tree and shrub vegetation on such sites in various regions of Russia has become widespread due to the reduction of agricultural enterprises. The research was conducted on former agricultural land covered with woody vegetation. In the course of field work, 4,324 hectares of former agricultural land were studied within the Belozersky and Kirillovsky districts of the Vologda region.

Abstract:
The paper shows differences in morphological and anatomical features of the Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) growing on former agricultural and forest lands. It was found that at the same age and in the same climatic conditions Scots pines from former agricultural land had larger stem dimensions and needle sizes as compared with the trees growing on forest land. These results lead to an interesting conclusion connected with future afforestation and reforestiation in the Krynki Forest District.

Abstract:
The article discusses the use of former agricultural lands for afforestation. The fertility of these lands is reduced, low biological activity of soils is noted, the content of substances inhibiting the growth of woody plants is observed. The presence of a compacted subsurface layer contributes to the fact that the root systems of trees are formed by surface and do not reach groundwater. Created forest plantations usually experience a water supply crisis, they die off in dry years, they are easily exposed to diseases and pests. Possible ways of solving problems associated with afforestation in

Abstract:
Landscape change has been extensively documented throughout rural Europe over the past decades. The dominating tendencies are intensification of agriculture and land marginalization. In territories of former USSR radical land use changes have shattered rural landscape structure throughout the 20th century, which in many cases have led to land marginalization in form of abandonment of agricultural lands and subsequent uncontrolled afforestation. This process is especially evident in mosaic type landscapes – landscapes of small intertwining structure of patches of agricultural land and forests.

Abstract:
According to official data, biomass represents the most significant potential of renewable energy sources in the Republic of Serbia. It accounts for about 63% of the total potential, but for now its use is not at a satisfactory level. In total amounts of 14,2·104 TJ, it is estimated that about 9,6·104 TJ is unused. This is still evidently a large available potential, especially in agricultural biomass, with the exception of the binding share of biofuels in the transport sector, whose annual potential is around 7,1·104 TJ. The main obstacles for more intensive biomass processing continue to be

Abstract:
Over the past six years, the world has actively increased interest in the climate agenda. This is due to various negative consequences of climate warming, namely droughts, fires, floods, tsunamis and other natural disasters. The current situation forces the world community to look for ways to adapt and mitigate the effects of climate impact. One of their suitable options is to use the natural potential in the form of the implementation of natural and climatic initiatives. This practice is widely used by Asian and BRICS countries in land use, agriculture and forestry. The article reveals the fe

Abstract:
This study investigates land use and land cover (LULC) change in the Stung Chrey Bak catchment, Kompong Chhnang province, Cambodia, over the period 1989–2008. Using a mixed-methods approach that combines satellite remote sensing (Landsat and ASTER imagery) with field interviews and participatory mapping, the research identifies significant transformations in forest cover, rice field expansion, and land tenure dynamics. The findings reveal a decline in evergreen and secondary forests, largely due to logging, agricultural expansion, and land speculation. The Khmer Rouge era (1975–1979) played a

In this paper, we document the Simplified International Model of agricultural Prices, Land use and the Environment (SIMPLE). SIMPLE is a partial equilibrium model which is designed to better understand the competing forces that influence the global farm and food system and how these drivers influence long run agricultural land use, production, prices, GHG emissions and food consumption. SIMPLE has been developed under the principle that a model should be no more complex than is absolutely necessary to understand the basic forces at work. Therefore, unlike other global models which are generall

This study assesses the interaction between climate change and agricultural trade policies. We distinguish between two dimensions of agricultural trade policy: market insulation and subsidy levels. Building on the previous work of Tsigas, Frisvold and Kuhn (1997) we find that, in the presence of current levels of agricultural subsidies, increased price transmission --as called for under the Uruguay Round Agreement on Agriculture-- reduces global welfare in the wake of climate change. This is due to the positive correlation between productivity changes and current levels of agricultural support

Several of these approaches are well known, while others have been only recently developed. These approaches have different names, specific objectives and principles and may employ different methods and technologies.
