Summary:Land consolidation is an effective tool for land management, which aims to ensure efficient and cost-effective agricultural production, which directly affects the development and prosperity of the local communities in which land consolidation projects are implemented. Land consolidation projects are very complicated, both in the volume of work, and the amount of funds that are being made. Given the complexity of the project, goals and gains aquired with the implementation of the project and very large sums of money allocated, we come to a conclusion it is very important to make a proper choice of municipalities and cadastral municipalities which should be given the priority for the development of agricultural land by land consolidation. The subject of this paper is multi-criteria TOPSIS method with an emphasis on different ways of subjective and objective evaluation of weight defined criteria. The aim of the research was to determine the effect of different ways of determining the weight criteria and based on them, using TOPSIS method execute ranking of CM for agricultural land by land consolidation in the Municipality of Ruma and determine which methods produce the most similar results, i.e. which cadastral municipalities in the Municipality of Ruma priority should be given to launch and implementation of land redistribution projects. Therefore, the ultimate goal of the research is to achieve fairness and objectivity in the process of giving priority cadastral municipalities to institute proceedings for land consolidation.
