Overview of land degradation neutrality (LDN) in Europe and Central Asia
Ukraine is the second largest country in Europe with large availability of arable land and some of the world’s most productive black soils. Agriculture dominates Ukraine’s landscape, and many soils have been lost due to wind and water erosion or become acidic, saline, or alkaline due to unsustainable agricultural practices, such as excessive use of mineral fertilizers and outdated technologies. Preservation and protection of arable land against land degradation and desertification is a national priority in the country and is essential for ensuring the sustainable development of agricultural landscapes and the reduction of rural poverty.
