It is difficult to overestimate the importance of land, which is a nonrecoverable natural resource. From this point of view, agricultural land has a unique unrepeatable natural fertility capacity that determines the possibility of producing life support products, being an essential component of the environmental system. In the annual Address to the Federal Assembly of the President of Russia in 2019, V.V. Putin, specifying the main directions of strategic development of the country, noted the high importance of the land legislation development. The peculiarities of the agricultural land plots turnover are due to the public nature of land relations regulation. For this category of land, a special legal regime is established for food security purposes of Russia, which leads to the prevention of removing these lands from agricultural circulation, as well as building development. According to articles 9, 36 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation, “land and other natural resources are used and protected in the Russian Federation as the basis for the lives and activities of peoples living on the the relevant territory” and the exercise of authority by land owners is limited to conditions for potentially damaging the environment and violation of rights and legitimate interests of other persons.
