Abstract. For the first time, for the conditions of southern Iraq, a modified method for geoinformation assessment of the state of agricultural landscapes in southeastern Iraq was developed, characterized by a combined analysis of the relief, forest plantations, field structure and soil contours. Based on the photogrammetric analysis of satellite images in the GIS environment, actual thematic cartographic layers of agricultural landscapes in the southern part were developed between the Tigris and Euphrates. The theoretical significance of the work is determined by obtaining new data on the state of agricultural land, on the features of the geomorphological characteristics of the territory, and determining the possibility of their agroforestry for protection from natural impacts during economic use, as well as by modifying the method of geoinformation assessment of the state of agricultural landscapes in southeastern Iraq. It has been established that there is practically no agroforestry development in the study area of the Maysan province, which has an area of 1607.2 thousand hectares. The results of the research can become the basis for the application of forest reclamation in order to protect agricultural land from degradation in southern Iraq. This will help restore the soil fertility of agricultural land, which will reduce losses from the impact of natural and anthropogenic negative factors.

Key words: geoinformation analysis, agricultural landscapes, agroforestry, Tigris, Euphrates, Iraq.
