Summary: | For the purpose of agroecological assessment of lands, rational agricultural land use and environmental management, the Federal Williams Research Center of Forage Production &Agroecology has developed agro-landscape and ecological zoning of the Central Natural and Economic Region. Based on the results of zoning, an assessment of the land and fodder resources of the Smolensk-Moscow district is given. In order to assess the changes in the state of vegetation as a result of the natural overgrowth of long-fallow land, the authors made geobotanical descriptions for a six-year period (2012–2017) of their overgrowth. The results of the assessment of the natural overgrowth of long-fallow land can be reliably extrapolated to similar locations and habitats of vegetation within the Smolensk-Moscow District. Extrapolation is also possible on a larger scale for the conditions of the Central region of the Non-Chernozem zone, where nat-ural overgrowth of deposits is one of the most important problems of agricultural production.
