<abstract>
<p>Achieving high efficiency by taking advantage of agricultural land at a high level allows the continued vitality of the soil and also
contributes to the country's economy. The land with the most fertilizer from agricultural land is generally the first class agricultural
land (I.) followed by second (II.) and third class (III.) agricultural lands. It is accepted that all these lands are considered to be protected
and various restrictions have been introduced to these lands. Soil conservation, use and development of balanced is possible to be
defined in detail by exploiting the developing science and technology possibilities, determination well-defined properties and the
implementation of policies by making the necessary plans. For this reason, Trabzon province is selected as the pilot region land use
capability of agricultural land classes (especially urban-rural area and plateau) ongoing changes in the past years until today are
examined depending on the land use first, second and third class. In this context, satellite images for 2002, 2005, 2009 and 2017 and
land use data including the non-agricultural use of the province of Trabzon has been discussed and the temporal changes of agricultural
areas depending on land use capability have been examined using Geographic Information Systems (GIS). In all the productive areas
of Trabzon Province, the increase in urban-rural development has been examined in detail because of especially the creation of planned
areas and the occurrence of construction needs. This study is a small-scale case study and the results are examined and analyzed using
GIS.</p>
