The article considers one of the priority issues of global land management and land resources management – agricultural lands exhaustion. It was revealed that agricultural lands exhaustion processes are caused by the absence of a number of organizational and economic mechanism elements in land management, in terms of control over the quality condition and land fertility. In order to improve the agricultural land management system, there was proposed a mechanism composed of a combination of legal, land management and agroecological measures. The central element of the organizational and economic mechanism for monitoring the processes of agricultural lands exhaustion is the proposed methodological approach of assessing the level of agricultural lands exhaustion and subsequent estimation of monetary value of the economic damage caused by the identified processes of agricultural lands exhaustion. Economic calculations of the cost for soil fertility factors restoration up to their optimal parameters are composed of calculation of differential rent values in terms of fertility and location of the investigated and reference soil being capitalized taking into account the standard period of capitalization in agriculture. The monetary value of the economic damage caused by the identified processes of agricultural lands exhaustion is determined as the difference between the values of capitalized rent for the investigated and reference soil.
