Text A. What is an Interfarm Land Use Plan?

The actual land use planning comes after a large amount of preparatory work. The most well-conceived objectives and the most sophisticated data collection, processing and ana lysis operation are of little value if they do not ultimately result in formulation of development proposals.

The general goals must be reduced to proposals in a plan form because the plan is the heart of the planning pro cess. The central importance of a plan cannot be overempha sized.

There are two main kinds of land use planning: 1. interfarm and 2. infarm. Interfarm land use planning en compasses the formation of land uses of agricultural enter prises. It includes the improvement of the existing land uses and the formation of new ones.

The interfarm land use planning also deals with the for mation of non-agricultural land uses and takings of land. It is aimed to find idle land for new locations of agricultural and non-agricultural enterprises.

The interfarm land use plan deals with land uses within the boundaries of an administrative region or a group of interconnected land users.

Text B. Interfarm Land Use Planning and Specialization and Concentration of Farming

When the interfarm land use planning is provided within the framework of an administrative region, the land use planners can design sound development plans. They can delineate new land uses taking into consideration modern trends to specialization and concentration of farming.

Our farm-land can be used for more different purposes than ever before due to the scientific and technological prog ress in agriculture. The properties inherent in the land are now less restrictive, and other resources determine what the most economic use shall be.

The characteristics of land nevertheless still set limits that influence the broad patterns of agriculture. The successful interfarm land use plan is the one which cooperates with the natural and biological processes that are linked to land.

What determines how farm-land shall be used in any area or region? Why are certain combinations of crops and livestock grown in one region, but not in another? Questions like these may be answered by a sound interfarm land use planning.

Physical factors are the ones that we think of in describing the land itself climate, soil, topography, elevation, water supply, and the like. They are the properties that are natu rally a part of the land.

The planners have to do with the rate of agricultural production, and with specialization and integration of the farms. The interfarm land use plan is to consider the optimum size of livestock farms and their location in the region, the acreage of pastures and grasslands and many other inter-connections. The planners should also take into consideration both existing and future interconnections of a group of agri cultural enterprises which have an interdependent technolog ical process and are integrative parts of agro-industrial complexes. The nearness to the relative branches of industry and the communication facilities play an important role in interfarm planning.

The planners should consider all factors before they develop new land uses or essentially transform the existing ones. The formation of land uses of an agricultural enter prise in order to increase the productivity requires evaluation of all factors. All non-agricultural land users must take into consideration the priority of land demands for agriculture. There may be complicated situations when an interfarm land use plan should be developed for the future. This plan should have economic and legal backgrounds for all planning decisions.
