Summary/Abstract: The land was and still remains the main means of production in agriculture. From its quantity and fertility depends food independence of countries and regions, and welfare of the population. Therefore, the issue of preserving and improving soil fertility is very relevant, since it is directly related to the productivity of farmed crops and; therefore, determines the possibility of creating conditions for import substitution of food in our country. At present, the work on the problem of soil fertility conservation is reduced to nothing: there is no work on drainage and liming; the use of organic and mineral fertilizers is reduced. The article reflects the main results of the latest scientific achievements on the problems of enlargement and reproduction of soil fertility. The study presents a list of the latest methods, preparations, and fertilizers developed by the scientists of the North-Western region of Russia. The ways to overcome the situation in agricultural production, related to the improvement of scientific support of farming problems, extension of fundamental scientific research and combination of the efforts of scientific institutions of the RAS and universities in the region are proposed.
