This work highlights the role and importance of land in agriculture, use of which is largely determined by the solution of one of the vital problems associated with the food supply of the population. The leading sphere of the agro-industrial complex is agriculture, which is a very complex socio-economic, organizational-economic and technical-technological system, always fulfilling the role of a locomotive that ensures the development of many sectors of the country's economy. Each agricultural worker provides work for from 7 to 10 workers in related sectors of the country's economy. Authors of this study propose methodological approaches to the classification of the forms of farming (agricultural organizations, peasant (farmer) households and individual households)which are based on the type of economic activity and legal form. Land relations occupy a special place in the general system of socio-economic relations due to the specificity of land as one of the elements of natural resources and at the same time as an indispensable business entity. Determined by the needs of socio-economic development, they are of paramount importance in human life. The peasants look at land not so much as the economic space of management, but as the foundation, the pillar of property for each and everyone, the guarantor of truth and justice. Land for the peasant is life itself. The land on which his ancestors lived and worked was the main measure of values for the peasant. It was the earth which was often defended against enemies. The most important feature of peasant life was a close connection with the land. This connection is important for all mankind as a science about our environment, our survival and balanced development.
