Russian term

рекультивация неудобий

Russian to English Science Environment & Ecology
From a legal contract on soil delivery - context:
"Проект рекультивации неудобий, площадью 1,7 га"

Is it "land recultivation" or "land reclamation" or is there a specific technical term for "неудобия" I should be using...?

Thanks in advance!

reclamation of marginal lands

"Неудобья" means land ill-suited for mainstream agriculture due to e.g. features of terrain. It might support a vineyard, a grazing area, a biofuel crop, or indeed be reclaimed to make it more arable.
Example sentence:

Soil resources will be improved by reducing application of excess nutrients to agricultural soils, and by remediation and reclamation of marginal lands in mining regions
