The ongoing processes in agriculture, and the national economy in general, as well as continuous targeted reconstruction of the European Union Common Agricultural and Rural Development Policy, and other processes of globalisation and international integration, steadily and directly resound to Latvia, and create new objectives related to the use of land. The agreement on rural development adopted during the European Union Salzburg Conference has also established or determined new functions for the use of land. The utilised agricultural area has a faster tendency to decrease compared to the increase of forest areas between 1940 and 2005. Consequently it characterises the situation in the use of land in Latvia for the generation of renewable resources. Between 2003 and 2006 the utilised agricultural areas (UAA) have decreased by more than 25 thousand hectares, particularly in agricultural enterprises. The largest share of unused UAA is observed in Ludza, Madona and Cesis districts.
