Abstract

The aim of this article was to assess changes of spatial pattern of structure of agricultural land use (SALU) in the Czech Republic. Based on a combination of share of agricultural land on total area (SAGL) and share of arable land on agricultural land (SARL), the approach assigns each spatial unit to one of four type of SALU – intensive (A), sharply intermediate (B), moderately intermediate (C) and extensive (D).

The study was done for two different datasets with the same origin – cadastral statistics: districts (n = 76) and basic territorial units (BTUs, n = 8.903).
