The future sucess of Estonia in Europe depends on the expedient use of the capability of each citizen, the produced capital and all natural resources. Taking into account its historical background and pedoclimatic conditions, the Estonian Republic must protect and recreate its good agricultural traditions and the arrangement of rural life. For the development of the contemporary and effective conservation agriculture, it is not important in which region of the world the search for compromises is done for fitting of food and feed production processes as well as the other human activities into the local natural cycle of substances. Therefore it is important to take into account the advantages of agroecology and the new technological possibilities. In the present work the quality and composition of arable soil cover, its constraints and possibilities for degradation, as well as the problems connected with its research and monitoring are treated. The arable land and its soil cover, from which an essential part is ameliorated, are treated as produced capital. It comprises 24,8 per cent of the whole territory of Estonia, but in the majority of European countries these figures are between the limits of 35-75, which is much more than in Estonia. It seems that the optimal arable area for Estonia must be increased in the future
