Abstract [eng] The aim of the study is to analyse changes in agricultural land using recent data and to assess changes in ecological stability in Jurbarkas district. The study was carried out in the period 2010-2023. Land use area and ecological stability coefficients were calculated for the entire period, sequentially for each year. The area of tree and shrub varied considerably over the study period, ranging from 20.7 % to 60.8 %, that is, from one-fifth of the area of other land to three-thirds. The areas of wetlands, unused, and damaged land are decreasing during the study time. The urbanised areas were mainly concentrated in the areas with low ecological stability. The situation with ecological stability is not good in all the studied territories.
