1. Introduction

Issues related to the formation of optimal for Ukraine 
model of formation and implementation of the state 
policy of regulating land relations on the way of real-
ization of the integration state’s choice are prospec-
tive nowadays for scientific discourse realization. 
At the same time, for the detailing and disclosure 
of the concept and the content of the measures of 
state policy of regulating land relations, it is neces-
sary to determine probabilistic changes of the main 
structural and dynamic indicators of land resources, 
which will take place during the implementation 
of a certain type of strategy management of these 
processes. According to this, the character and pace 

of the measures of state administration of land rela-
tions development should take into account mod-
ern experience of its implementation in the frames 
of each component of the system of land relations. 
The effectiveness of realization of economic-statisti-
cal analysis and the usage of prognostic and diag-
nostic methods of scientific knowledge will protect 
the development of the optimal for Ukraine concep-
tual-analytical model of the strategy of formation 
and implementation of state policy of regulating 
land relations in Ukraine.

abstract
In this article the key provisions of using strategic planning in the management of land relations are revealed and justified in 
the context of formalizing of optimal for Ukraine conceptual and analytical model of strategy of formation and implementation 
of state policy of regulating land relations. According to the results of development of the conceptual and analytical model, 
four strategic goals are defined, under which operational objectives of state policy of regulating land relations in Ukraine are 
represented.

key words
strategy of state policy, conceptual and analytical model, state policy of regulating land relations.

emphasize, that a number of scientific papers are 
devoted to the theoretical and applied aspects of 
target modernization and reformation of state land 
administration by land relations, written by such sci-
entists such as: O. Alymov A. Kuzmin, A. Miroshnych-
enko, L. Nowakowskyi, V. Nosik, A. Tretiak, M. Shulha, 
S. Ibatullina, O. Stepenko and others.

However, the majority of scientific researches, 
firstly, consider theoretical and practical aspects of 
land reform and land relations` development from 
the point of view of formation of the system of state 
administration by land relations and land resources. 
Thus, we consider, there is an urgent need to conduct 
a systematic study of the problems of constructing 
the optimal for Ukraine strategy of formation and 
implementation of state policy of regulation of land 
relations of enterprises on the base of formalization 
of adequate conceptual and analytical model.

The main aim of this article is to develop the opti-
mal for Ukraine conceptual and analytical model of 
the strategy of formation and implementation of state 
policy of regulation of land relations in Ukraine on the 
base of generalization of conceptual approaches to 
the implementation of strategic planning in state ad-
ministration of land relations.

2. Strategic planning of state regulation of 
land relations

Land policy is a fundamental part of the general eco-
nomic policy that defines aspects of development 
and usage of other measures of state regulation; 
reduces corruption risks and provides dynamism 
to the processes of modernization of economic de-
velopment. Environmental, transport, investment, 
industrial and other policies, one way or another, 
should be based on the current foundation, as well 
as on the plans of medium and long-term land poli-
cy of the state.

We confirm that implementation of state policy 
is a continuous, dynamic process of achieving goals, 
which involves various government agencies and civil 
society institutions. Therefore, the aim of implementa-
tion of the state policy of land relations is the practical 
organization of actions of land relations` participants, 
distribution and redistribution of land resources, pro-
viding the order in land usage, protection of land re-
sources and their preservation for future generations. 
According to this, fundamental society`s interests, 
strategic demands of the modern stage of state`s de-
velopment expressed by political leaders and elites in 
the form of basic principles and strategic objectives, 
which have found the appropriate public support, 
should be the base for the development of state land 

policy, which must meet modern requirements to the 
policy-making process (Morrison, 2002).

Therefore, objectively, development of the effec-
tive state policy in the society is practically impos-
sible without strategic planning, based on the im-
plementation of provisions of the program-oriented 
approach to the formation of optimization complex 
of measures, methods and tools of targeted impact 
on the determined sphere of administrative activity. 
The relevance and urgency of usage of methods of 
strategic planning is additionally explained by its 
rationality and the global integration, and it can be 
seen in several possible options for the implementa-
tion into the society`s practice of Ukraine (the con-
clusions of which provide consideration of the de-
velopments (Суворов, 2014)).

In state administration strategic planning – is the 
planning of the goals of the state development, that 
provides looking for optimal set of trajectories of 
its movement oriented to achieve some long-term 
objectives in the conditions of real resource con-
straints. Such planning is one of the most important 
tasks of the state-management activity. It covers the 
conceptualization of policies, programmes and pro-
jects, regulatory, organizational and coordination-
planned design and provides achievement of their 
balance and assurance of the synchronous develop-
ment (Сурмін et al., 2010). Its characteristic feature is 
the large-scale coverage of problems of rational land 
usage and land protection in the state.

Strategic planning allows, in a certain way, to 
make a clear definition of development objectives 
and to forecast the search/creation of the optimal 
set of trajectories of movement of a certain area of 
economic and administrative activity oriented on the 
achievement of defined long-term objectives in the 
conditions of real threats and resources` constraints. 
According to this, such type of planning becomes 
one of the main tasks of state-administrative activ-
ity in the field of land relations` regulation. It covers 
the conceptualization of components of the general 
policy of land relations` regulation, as well as target 
programmes and projects, regulatory, organization-
al and coordination-planned design and provides 
achievement of their balance and assurance of their 
synchronous development. Along with the specified, 
the  author confirms that the strategic planning in the 
field of state regulation of land relations, in fact, is able 
to combine several types of administrative activity, in 
particular:
a) definition of objectives of development of land 

relations;
b) forecasting of expenditures and changes in the 

quality of land resources;

c) assessment of the adequacy of the defined list of 
resources and reserves;

d) adaptation of the system of state and regional 
management in the field of land usage to the en-
vironment;

e) internal coordination, which are reflected in the 
detailed comprehensive plan aimed at the ensur-
ing of the achievement of the objectives.

According to this we confirm that the essence of 
strategic planning, developed with the usage of 
provisions of the programme-target approach is the 
allocation of a substantial, in the whole complex of 
changes, in the sphere of land ownership, land us-
age and land protection, desirable and possible 
state of land relations in the country, region or local 
community in future.

Therefore, we recognize that according to the 
specified (Tytarenko, 2014) major issues of the 
state policy of regulation of land relations that cur-
rently inhibit its development and implementation, 
proposed for the usage in the practice of the state 
scientific-applied measures on completion of the 
land reform and the development and implementa-
tion of new state policy of regulating land relations 
(using the provisions of the programme-oriented 
approach) may become the fundamental basis to 
prepare draft regulations and implement effective 
policy by executive authorities in full performance 
of their powers granted by the law. That is why, the 
original conceptual and analytical model of the 
strategy of formation and implementation of the 
state policy of regulation of land relations in Ukraine 
can be represented in the form of structural-logical 
scheme, which is shown on the tab. 1. The systematic 
understanding of complex, voluminous and mul-
tifaceted issue of development and justification of 
the strategy of formation and implementation of the 
state policy of regulation of land relations in Ukraine 
and, respectively, clear definition of content-rich-
ness of the last (Титаренко, 2014) has provided ho-
listic, comprehensive understanding of the priorities 
and possible directions of formalization of concep-
tual and analytical model, which is represented by 
the formula 1: 

where:
S

str
 – the strategy of formation and implementation of the 

state policy of regulation of land relations in Ukraine;
M – the mechanism of formation and implementation of the 
state policy of regulation of land relations in Ukraine, which is 
represented together with its six components.

That is, in the following composition of submechanisms:
SM

SM

 – organizational and land-managerial;

SM

SM

 – formation of land property and land ownership;

SM

 – security of protection of land;

 – multiple function from the structural and dynamic 
construction, based on different by nature dominants of state 
administration. In particular, on:
the clear definiteness of: (а) essence and content of compo-
nents of state policy of regulation of land relations, repre-
sented in the form of multidimensional system of economic, 
organizational and legal measures to rationalize land rela-
tions ( ); (b) principles of formation and implementation 
of the state policy of regulation of land relations (P

flrl
). It is also 

necessary to specify that objectification of the last involves 
incorporation and consideration of the modern experience 
of formation and implementation of the appropriate type of 
policy in three, recognized as priority ones, directions of reali-
zation of a complex of measures ( );
R ⊂ SUI – closed feedback that occurs when performing ad-
ministrative decisions and solving administrative tasks pro-
vided on the results of identification of the main systematic-
universal issues in sphere of regulation of land relations;
df / dQpta – derivative structural and functional component 
that provides efficiency formation and implementation of 
the state policy of regulation of land relations according to 
the consequences of using provisions of programme-target 
approach during its development;
St |   Op (G

rivatives – see formula 1) incorporatively identified and justi-
fied as correlates strategic and operational objectives of state 
regulation of land relations in Ukraine, that provides crea-
tion and selection of optimization complex of strategic tools 
(SI

) and, accordingly, development of a complex of meas-

ures for each of the (defined by the author of dissertation) 
two stages of the strategy implementation ( ) of the 
appropriate type (that is in the context of formation and im-
plementation of the modern state policy of regulation of land 
relations in Ukraine).

Analysis and evaluation of the modern state of 
state management of land relations and, respec-
tively, the use and protection of land in Ukraine, 
confirms that there is a number of issues that require 
urgent solutions. The most acute problems of state 
policy of regulation of land relations that arose dur-
ing their reformation and that are still not resolved, 
are also characterized on the table 1.

Thus, we prove: the presented calculations of 
the conceptual and analytical model of strategy of 
formation and implementation of the state policy of 
regulation of land relations in Ukraine will protect 
from unit costs reduction, will provide the involve-
ment of existing reserves and innovation opportu-
nities for the development, improvement or radi-
cal change in land relations in the direction that is 
a priority one for the state, to rationalize the use and 
protection of land, food security and the creation of 
environmentally safe conditions for business and 
residence of citizens. The stated above is shown on 
the table 1 to identify the mechanisms of formation 

and implementation of state policy of regulation of 
land relations in Ukraine and to determine the op-
timal strategic goals. Since it is the formalization of 
strategic and operational objectives and involve-
ment of strategic potential of industrial and eco-
nomic systems that will secure efficiency of technol-
ogies of strategic management of land relations in 
terms of resource limitations.

Basic system-universal issues: 
1) lack of the strategy and programmes of reforming and development of land relations and land protection; 
2) imperfection and instability of land legislation and land law norms dispersion in different legal acts; 3) lack of 
interaction between state executive authorities and local self-government (with low efficiency of functioning of lo-
cal government because of irrational allocation of functions and powers between them and state administrations, 
as well as due to the lack of resources); 4) closed nature and unavailability for usage by physical and legal persons 
without cadastral and registration information (incomplete process of formation of the state land cadastre); 5) polit-
icization state management of land relations; 6) corruption in state governance bodies; 7) technological chain gaps 
in the adoption and implementation of decisions that lead to unsystematic, fragmented state land policy; 8) lack of 
a single authority of land management of state property; 9) incomplete processes of reforming the economic and 
legal ownership relations; 10) imperfect system of state administration in the sphere of usage, protection of land 
and control of land use (absence of the appropriate type of mechanism); 11) inefficient use of agricultural and non-
agricultural land; 12) incomplete introduction into economic circulation of land plots and rights on them; 13) low 
efficiency of the system of payment for land when there is evasion of the land tax, rent (search and formalization of 
not deserved benefits on payment for land) etc.

application of the programme-target approach: scientific justification and formulation of strategic goals, building 
a hierarchy of sub-goals for the programme sections, creating organizational structures that are adequate to programme 
methods of management.

Strategic goals: 1) reformation 
of relations of land ownership; 
2) accounting and valuation of land 
resources as national wealth of 
Ukraine; 3) organization of effective 
management of land relations in 
Ukraine; 4) rationalization of land 
use and land protection.

operational objectives: 1) guaranteeing constitutional rights to land, protection 
of land ownership; 2) creation of the land market infrastructure; 3) strengthen the 
institution of land ownership; 4) raise the level of investment attractiveness of land 
use; 5) quantitative and qualitative account of the state land resources; 6) account 
of especially valuable land; 7) evaluation of land resources of the state; 8) formation 
of the effective system of land relations management; 9) creation of an integrated 
system of state executive bodies and local government bodies in the sphere of land 
relations; 10) improvement of the regulatory framework in the field of regulation of 
land relations; 11) rationalization of land use; 12) land protection.

3. Summary

According to the results of the analysis of strategic 
planning in state administration of land relations, 
the conceptual and analytical model of the strategy 
of formation and implementation of the state policy 
of regulation of land relations in Ukraine is devel-
oped and visualized, under which the following is 
proposed:
a) major steps towards completion of the land re-

form and development and implementation of 
a new state policy of regulation of land relations;

b) apply the provisions of the programme-target 
approach as the basic method of improvement 
of the state policy of regulation of land relations 
in Ukraine.
Summarizing the above presented calculations, 

the author believes that today the strategic planning 
on the basis of the programme-target approach can 
be seen as a methodological base, quite adequate 
for the present and able to increase the effectiveness 
of state management of land relations both in the 
state as a whole and its separate regions. The use of 
strategic planning in the state administration of land 
relations will promote the transition from the prac-
tice of using funds for the development of land rela-
tions to the evaluation of final results and increas-
ing of responsibility during the implementation of 
relevant programmes, which makes it necessary to 
continue research in this area.
