Abstract
The article considers the role of human, material and other resources of the Ukrainian SSR in exploration of virgin and derelict lands of the Soviet Union (Siberia, Kazakhstan and other territories) . In particular it tells us about the evaluation of the «virgin land campaign» in the modern Ukrainian historiography . The author makes a conclusion that Ukrainian historians have a rather critical approach to the study of this question, though some aspects of the «virgin land campaign» remain partially or poorly studied . In most cases their studies are written in the context of national historical narrative «standards» of modern Ukraine .
