Economic land evaluation for sustainable land management

In this paper the authors describe the steps of building of a new automated complex land evaluation system based on the D-e-Meter land quality index. Complex evaluation means an organic systematization of ecological and economical factors. Necessary of development of a new land evaluation system based on the undeveloped land market in Hungary, which causes difference between the level of actual land price and economic value of agricultural land. The land evaluation has - among others - an important task: that is to convey the value towards the land market actors, which can be the starting point in negotiation about market price and in decision-making about the land use. The estimated land value indicates the total values of land estates on the basis of their rent-production ability. These values can differ from land-estate prices formed on land market, nevertheless they are decidedly adequate to replace the Hungarian current land evaluation system, so called Gold- -crown System and to solve whole series of objectives connected with land evaluation. The new land evaluation system is useful for estimating the realistic land value, but also helps to manage the land use on sustainable way.

Kompleksowa ocena oznacza organiczni usystematyzowanie czynników ekologicznych i ekonomicznych, wpływających na cenę ziemi. Metodyki powstała na potrzeby rozwoju nowego systemu oceny rynku gruntów na Węgrzech, związanego z różnicam rzeczywistych cen działek a wartością ekonomiczną gruntów rolnych.
