The article presents changes in land use in the area of the municipality of Cerkvenjak, Slovenia, in the period 2000-2023. Changes in land use are shown as a function of some natural geographical factors (relief, topoclimatic characteristics...). The directions of changes in land use are also analyzed in relation to the process of extensification, i.e. changes of cultivated land to non-cultivated land. The changes in vineyard areas are specially analyzed. We also included in the analysis older georeferenced and digitized data from the Franciscan cadastre for the area of the present municipality of Cerkvenjak from 1824. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article analyses the changes in land use in the area of the Dravinjske Gorice in the period 2000-2022. Changes in land use are shown depending on the selected natural geographical elements and by cadastral municipalities. The directions of land use change in the considered period and the coefficient of extensification are also analysed. In the past, viticulture was one of the agricultural activities that gave the identity of this region, so for the probe area "Škalce-Bezina-Tepanje" we analysed the changes in the viticulture areas in terms of relative heights, global radiation and viticulture ratings in time profiles 1824-2000-2022.

In this article, we analyse land-use change in the municipality of Juršinci. In the first part of the article we discuss the changes in land use in relation to some natural-geographical characteristics in the period 2000-2021. We also discuss the most frequent directions of land use change. In the second part of the paper, we look at the changes in vineyard areas. In this context, we compared the extent of vineyard area in 1824 with the current situation. We also analyse the utilisation of quality vineyard areas in the past and today. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article analyses changes in wine-growing areas in the area of wine-growing districts and subdistricts in Slovenia in the period 2000-2019. Viticulture has represented an important sector in Slovenian farms since the ancient age. In recent decades, wine-growing is associated with a tourism. Wine-growing areas are shrinking everywhere, and the problem is the growing age of vineyards, as their renovation is linked to high costs. There are significant differences between wine-growing districts and subdistricts in Slovenia in the stages of the abandonment of winegrowing areas. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Eastern Ljutomersko-Ormoške gorice are among the most vital vineyard areas of Northeastern Slovenia. Nevertheless, the region has not been spared from the processes of deagrarization and subsequent land use changes which are going in the direction of the abandonment of cultivated areas, greening, overgrowth and afforestation. The article analyses land use changes in the area of Eastern Ljutomersko-Ormoške gorice between 2000 and 2015 in relation to selected physiographic features. Main focus was on cultivated areas, particularly vineyard areas. The directions of land use changes for the studied period are also analysed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
