Resumen

The principal objective of the Programme is to increase the area of lands of the country under the natural landscapes to the level sufficient for the preservation of their diversity close to their initial natural condition and the development of their territorially integrated system built to ensure the possibility to use the natural ways of the migration and propagation of species of plants and animals, which would ensure the preservation of natural ecosystems, species and populations of the flora and fauna. Major tasks of the Programme shall be as follows: 1) in the field of the development of the national environmental network: a) to determine the spatial structure of the environmental network in order to systematise and determine the ways of the integration of natural environments of the existence of populations of wild flora and fauna species in a territorially integral complex; b) to determine the area of individual environmental network elements in order to ensure favourable conditions of the existence, free propagation and migration of plant and animal species; c) to reserve and then confer the appropriate status on reserve areas being rich in terms of the biodiversity, especially on the old nature groupings, river-bed, mountain, and gully forests, virgin lands, typical and unique ecosystems and landscapes, existence environments of rare and endangered species, geological formations and standard soil types, etc.; 2) in the field of the protection and restoration of land resources: a) to optimise areas of agricultural lands and to reduce the extent of the tillage of such lands; b) to improve the structure of agricultural lands and to enrich them with natural components; c) to introduce a soil-protective farming system with the contour-irrigation organization of the territory; d) to restrict the destructive intensive use of environmentally vulnerable lands; e) to preserve the agricultural lands with very washed out and very deflated soils at slopes, whose gradient exceeds 5-7 degrees; 3) in the field of the protection and restoration of water resources: a) to ensure the ecological recovery of natural land and water areas, especially river sources, to improve the condition of flood ecosystems in basins of Dnieper, Dnister, Southern and Western Boog, Siversky Donets, Danube, including the creation of protective belts along the coasts of water objects, especially at very steep areas, to take actions aimed at the preservation of wetlands, to enhance their water protective and water control ability, ensure their naturalisation and improve the protection of natural complexes of the water protection zones of water objects; b) to develop and take actions aimed at the preservation of coastal landscapes of the Sea of Azov and the Black Sea, to create a network of marine objects of the natural reserve fund; 4) in the field of the protection, use and restoration of resources of the flora and fauna: a) to create areas with forest and meadow type vegetation in agricultural landscapes; b) to restore (re-naturalise) the steppe, meadow, wetlands and other natural landscapes, where appropriate and feasible; c) to arrange for new areas to maintain the existence environments of certain plant and animal species entered in the Red Book of Ukraine and the natural plant groups entered in the Green Book of Ukraine, the European Red List of Plants and Animals Endangered throughout the World, as well as other plant and animal species included in lists of international conventions and agreements binding upon Ukraine; 5) in the field of the biodiversity preservation: a) to maintain, strengthen and restore key ecosystems and existence environments of plant and animal species; b) to ensure the stable management of the positive potential of the biological diversity by way of the optimal utilisation of the social and economic opportunities at the national and regional levels; c) to take into account the objectives in the field of the preservation, and balanced and sustainable use of the biological diversity in all sectors using or influencing the same; d) to take targeted actions meeting the requirements of the preservation of various types (mountain, steppe, meadow, coastal, marine, river, flood, lake, wetland and forest) of ecosystems and based upon the legal and financial potential of the nature users and state authorities.
