Abstract:
Effective territorial organization of farms is a key factor for sustainable development of the regions, development of settlements, expansion of relations among them, involvement of natural resources in the economic turnover, promotion of social and cultural services to the population. Despite many years of reforms to overcome the difficulties of the transition period, it is not possible to increase the share of regions in the socio-economic development of the country.
These processes also manifest themselves in the economic region of Lankaran-Astara in the southern part of the country. Poor supply of natural resources, inefficient organization of the agricultural sector, and high rates of population growth over the years due to natural growth have caused serious problems in the creation of work places and the organization of social and cultural services. This situation has also contributed to migration. In order to solve them, it is important to implement large-scale socio-economic measures and to develop their scientific and theoretical basis.
