Abstract

The article examines agro-ecological activities that combine the objectives of agricultural production with maximum consideration of environmental protection and rational use of natural resources. An appropriate statistical indicator improves the recording of the process and the main results of this integrated activity. The methodology for the formation of statistical indicators presented in the article is based on international classifications used in the field of environmental protection. The main international standards applied in the field of environmental protection, conservation, use of land resources and land use are the international classifications developed by Eurostat, the UN Economic Commission for Europe, OECD, as well as the Food and Agriculture Organization. In the paper, indicators related to the accounting and statistical reflection of the role of agriculture and rural areas in preserving biodiversity, greenhouse gas emissions from agricultural production and rural areas, environmental services, and the production of raw materials for biofuel are proposed from the standpoint of an integrated analytical and informational approach. The result of the study is the creation of a system of statistical indicators contributing to the improvement of the Environmental Information System in terms of the state and development of agroecology. The agro-environmental indicators obtained are harmonized with the basic principles for the development of environment statistics in the context of sustainable development goals and can be used by the statistical services of the CIS countries.
